Not having much money?
Tough shit.
I get that a fucking lot from local companies and bands. And they like every other money grubbing know-it-nothing brings up, "Well this would be a great portfolio piece for you."
Will it?
Really?
Do I go to your record store and go, hey I'm only going to be paying 30% of the price of the vinyl I brought to the store clerk because I don't have much money at the present moment. But guess what, you'll get a lot of publicity from me telling people who great it felt ripping you off.
Do I go to your band when they are recording at their studio and go, hey you know what I have some shit I want to record so ... give me my studio time for basically nothing because ... I don't have much money at the present moment. But don't worry, I'll tell everyone that your studio was the best to use!
But be nice about not lifting a finger for them (but do, and I can not stress this enough buy their domain name that they want to hold over for ransom later), otherwise instead of being friends with them on their road to riches, you end up just being that guy who was the inspiration to do riches and in turn gets no benefits.
