What are the highs and lows of the job?
You need to be prepared to spend hours standing in really sweaty venues listening to really awful bands, or sit by the phone for ages waiting for bands to call you and then not get the call. Be prepared to miss out on social events because you’re at some rubbish gig. You have to be professional – you can’t just turn up to a gig and get drunk and half watch it – you have to really pay attention. At the same time you get paid to listen to music and talk to some of your heroes.
