to some extent it does, however, it used to be a bit easier to scrape by and have a roof over your head, hangout with your friends, and hone one's craft in america. There are a lot of stories where someone worked at a bakery, recorded there after. Another where two guys bought a small place to put a studio together in Portland, just a lot of shit like that. The walls have closed way, way in.
it's good that you found advice like that. rick rubin's book is a load of shit and in interviews he's saying shit like 'maybe your job is your livelihood and your art is secondary' basically telling ppl to strive for less straight up, not even veiling it in a myth which is incredible considering he threw his entire life into helping ppl create music
lol, my (estranged) dad did the opposite. Spent X years in the Florida prog rock/metal scene, his band finally recorded and released an EP, and within a couple of years, the band had split up and he was working as a pastry chef over a thousand miles away.
