But I am a drummer and from experience, you can’t really have that breakthrough been a full time drummer with big artist , I mean those bands that has events every time . They are payed peanuts generally. Band owner takes 70% shares on booking and share the rest amongst the band members that might be 15 or 20 sometimes . Some bands do not even share members money made on stage . Some will just share the money 70/30 again and give band members the 30%."
