One way you're definitely guaranteed never to make any money in the music industry is to write a hit song or three and regularly receive royalties from them. Every idiot knows that! Doing jobbing gigs at restaurants and bars a couple of times a month is the route to the big bucks!
Yeah, remember Don McLeans famous answer to the question "What does American Pie mean?" -"Well uuuh it means I have to play other peoples music in dive bars for the rest of my life , while I have to pay for the coffee there."
I actually know who Mike DelGuidice is. He has a Billy Joel cover band named Big Shot but he also plays guitar in Billy Joel's band. I saw him play between periods of a Rangers game at MSG, he was pretty good. The other guy I don't know.
You think he would have picked legit talented, legendary cover bands like Yellow Matter Custard with a real guitar god like Paul Gilbert, who puts his own creative spin on the classics. But noooo

Its cringeworthy, hes gonna waste his time to write the 3 words and could just do it but no he has to say OPM first to show you he's clever enough to make an abbreviation.
Right? You play the greatest hits of some of the most successful and iconic bands to ever live, Joe. No one is mistaking "Sunday Bloody Sunday" as a Joe Cumia original.
So he writes hundreds of songs and wishes he could do it professionally, but when he actually set up a go fund me for his YouTube or whatever, it was for a "talk show"?
He's even stupid about the things he's passionate about.
hmmm where is he uploading these so-called original songs? If it’s on youtube, I might have to double check they don’t violate any copyright. We don’t want honest record companies being shafted from this thieving musician.
"I play covers because that's what most working musicians get paid to do."
I know about 35 professional (yes, professional, they earn their living with that, instead of you) musicians. About 15 of them are studio musicians, which means they are highly skilled. Something you are not, Joe. That's why you could never be one. The rest play they own music and earn their living with it. I legit do not know ONE SINGLE musician who earns their living playing covers, you fat loser.
Any one can write music that brings in no money, fucking dunce. The good music makes money, if only enough to earn a living like stock music and background music. Dunce.
If he had any ounce of creative ability he would be earning with his creativity in one way or another like producing jinggles like uncle jessie and uncle joey.
He has been gifted with more than enough free money and time to be able to make himself a really nice home studio. He claims he has all these connections in the radio and music world, since he basically co-created O&A (according to him). He makes a living doing covers because he’s too stupid, lazy, and untalented to make it as a real musician. He sucks.
Playing music cover or original is fine. Many people have this hobby or are more professional.
The fact the Ant pays ($60K a year) for Joe to pursue his 'career' is most enraging. This Leech has been a 'musician' for 45 years.
What has Leech been up to these decades, you say.
45 years of stealing (valor), dodging child support/school curfew, ball washing and oppressed homosexuality.
This is such bullshit. If he's so fucking creative he wouldn't be playing the most obvious over-played songs as he does. There's nothing creative at all in playing "In the Air Tonight" and doing them note for note the same. Or as note for note as fumblin' Joe can get.
Hey would be so much more relatable if he just admitted he loves playing guitar and figured out a way to do it for a living without having the passion to write new songs. He could play it off like "hey I turned my hobby into a job and that's more than most people do."
But of course, the real story is most musicians do what he does and only fucking idiots try to write songs and make albums.

Yeah, right. You're capable to write music but you don't because it won't bring in money? Sounds like a true musician to me.

He’s basically a black Leonard Cohen but he knows, unlike you IDIOT LIBTARDS, you get more acclaim and money doing faggy U2 covers.

I'm assuming by the misspelling of "loser" that JohnDenver2005 is Joe.

He encourages young children to spit into his mouth for sexual satisfaction, if that helps snap you back into reality.

I'll bet one month of Joe's allowance that no one has ever messaged Joe saying they love his music.

He's even stupid about the things he's passionate about.
1 JamesFalcone 2019-02-14
It's because he knows he isn't good enough at making music but is great at hanging on to his brother's coattails.
1 brmlb 2019-02-14

Well, yeah, cover band musicians dont earn money from their own music by definition. retard.
