Jake OSeptember 19, 2019So far I have enjoyed the book - reading it has made me self- reflect quite a bit. I now think about my current role in my band, the importance of asking questions about the future of the band, and I’ve even discussed many of the topics with my bandmates such as being on top of the business side of things and thinking about our branding. Interestingly, I’ve noticed a lot of positive changes in my group since reading this book so thank you. I love the interviews at the end of each chapter as well. I was sad Joel didn’t include an autograph but maybe next time.
