Hi I live in rural Louisiana - in Cajun country. Do you live in a big city or somewhere more rural?
Hii😀! I live in a big city also, I wish I lived somewhere rural. 
Don't you enjoy access to lots of things to do - like concerts, museums, big events, etc?
I love museums and I often go see permanent and temporary exhibits.  The larger cities often have the biggest museums. Do you have them a lot?
We have a small science museums, but that's it. The local Barnes and Noble bookstore is one of the most popular places to hang out - so there's not much activity. Do you like camping and fishing?
Science museum
A science museum is a museum devoted primarily to science. Older science museums tended to concentrate on static displays of objects related to natural history, paleontology, geology, industry and industrial machinery, etc. Modern trends in museology have broadened the range of subject matter and introduced many interactive exhibits. Many if not most modern science museums which increasingly refer to themselves as science centres or "discovery centres" also emphasize technology, and are therefore also technology museums.
The mission statements of science centres and modern museums vary
So I've pretty much had it. I don't want to be the traveling medicine show where we go out and do the song and dance and someone else drops the back of the wagon and starts selling crap. I don't want our music to sell anything—or anyone else use it. There are a lot of middlemen, somewhere between the band and the audience. I know you need some people to help facilitate things for the live show, and I'm not saying that I don't appreciate these people
