the fungus is no longer among us!

Just wanted to take a quick moment to say that this book was a great read for a full day of Amazon deliveries. As a musician that is currently making the transition into making videos full-time career I found that this book was very insightful and straightforward about go to plans and actions.

If you're a follower and or member of Damien's music business academy I still suggest giving this book a read as it can be the brutal truth you need to hear. it'll also teach you about what the hell I'm talking about in my title 🤣

thank you Damo !

Stay Creative

One Love & Namaste
