"If
you want to work in the festival market, you can. You must be very
organized and contact many events to get booked. Booking entertainment
is very subjective, if you contact enough events and show them what you
have to offer, a few of them will want to book you. It is a numbers
game and FN provides the resource for you to go out and play the game."
