“I think the hardest part of being in the band and trying to make it is waiting, you know? I think, to be fair, if we would have gotten a big break early on, it would have been wasted on us.

Sometimes they are really worth doing, because one day things might actually work out in your favor.” ThinkingTryingBookSometimesWaitingBreakFailingOne DayPerseveranceWork OutSnowball Author:Wesley Schultz
