#4 True but your chances are significantly greater being in a media center.
I have uncles who have been in bands since the late 60's and won great accolades in the 70's...in fact they won the Buddy Award in Texas which was quite a feat back then...they were kind of a rock jazz fusion kind of group and beat out the North Texas State Jazz band which was an even bigger feat.
One uncle finally gave up, the other continues to this day playing as a session drummer in Nashville...he has made many contacts through the years..o p ened for ZZ-Top etc etc...however he would tell you if he had to do it all over again he would have bitten the bullet and moved straight to LA or Nashville when he was younger.
My cousin who is now a drummer...married to Johnny Cash and June Cash's granddaughter is playing in Nasvhillle and touring all over but he's planning on moving to LA now.
