DESCRIPTION
Scott Page, legendary musician from Pink Floyd, Super Tramp and Toto takes us on the journey of a lifetime, as he paints the picture of how he went from being 'the worst in the band' to a literal rockstar, and what he learned along the way, and the second part of the podcast is Scott's involvement in Web 3, and how it's revolutionizing the music industry.
Some of the most powerful moments are when Scott speaks to the importance of mentors, and people who taught him a lot about life and music. Some highlights are when he talks about Michael’s Smotherman’s secret to success, ‘You’ve got to play like you’ve got a big d*!#’, and Quincy Jones, who taught him the gift of listening and being present. Scott lets us in on all the lessons he's learned from some of the greatest musicians of all time, and the gift of story telling.
Scott takes us down the road of the importance of mindset, awareness, and the importance of connecting with the source, letting go of fear, and how suffering prompts change.
Then, we transition into how Web 3 has truly revolutionzed music, and put the power back in the creators' hands. Scott explains that you can be a starving artist, or go get the resources you need to really make art, which is now very accessible through NFTs. You don't need millions of streams on Spotify anymore to make a living. The 1000 true fans is now 200 true fans to build a 6-figure business in Web 3 music on the blockchain.
Finally, Scott explains that some of the main components of Web 3 are the power of decentralization, and that what you stand for is more important than what you sell. We are building for the community, with the community, & through these music NFTs, artists are now able to give their fans access, and so much more value.
