'Making a Life in Music' with Volume 6: The Opening Set

For those of you playing along at home, there's been insight into what a song IS, the importance of having goals, the value of the open mic, the difference between jealousy and ambition, and what the hell a manager does.....all with Josh's firsthand - and brutally honest - perspective.

Josh's most recent addition: "The Opening Set." 

You can read this and the rest at Book of Jubilations.  Thanks for all the great comments!

Enjoy.
