If a bandmate is unable to attend a rehearsal, the Gig Room allows that player to attend and contribute to the rehearsal in real time. \u00a0 The Gig Room is also the perfect way to teach \u201cdistance lessons.\u201d\u00a0 All a musician needs is a computer or smartphone with a fast and reliable internet connection.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The advantages to being a part of the world\u2019s first truly global community of musicians are many. \u00a0 Musicians can meet their peers and find comradery through their common love of music making.\u00a0 Students can meet prospective teachers and mentors who can guide them on their lifelong musical journey. Teachers, universities, conservatories, agents and personnel managers can recruit talented up and coming musicians. Music retailers can finally interact with musicians without having to go through the traditional gatekeepers (band directors, chorus teachers, etc).\u00a0 Likewise, musicians can interact with their favorite manufacturers, which deepens brand awareness and loyalty.\u00a0 Music lovers benefit as they are able to meet their musical idols and even play with them.\u00a0 This, again, works both ways.\u00a0 Musicians can interact with their fans on an even deeper level than is possible on other social media platforms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The message is simple.\u00a0 Meet the best musicians in the world and play for them and with them &#8211;
