You should watch Hired Gun if you haven’t already. A lot of session musicians on albums, and touring in support of bands. Also, there seems to be a trend where people essentially hire people to be their band, but they’re not really vested in the group. Like Nine Inch Nails is Trent Reznor’s baby.
The Music Industry has been on this for decades, Hire the Best of the Best for Recording sessions, so for the true fan with a great ear for music, you will sell millions and fill seats nationwide, for people to listen to OK musicians performing with second rate sound systems blaring out the songs. Win/Win
To the best of the best, Rest in Peace, Hal Blaine
