I don't know Luke, you might have to get back in the trenchesIt’s one of the rare times in my life that i can honestly say that I’m glad I’m an ex-Professional soldier haha!

$3000/mo for a crappy apartment...Sorry to derail this further but I am curious how much money someone would need to live in LA for a year whilst not earning anything to do something like this Score Academy? I just can’t imagine being able to spend a year from earning anything. Feels like it’s aimed at rich people!

That's what I thought. Thanks.

Maybe Tom will let the person sleep on a couch, or a cot, in the studio. You could sell it as living for the experience!Sorry to derail this further but I am curious how much money someone would need to live in LA for a year whilst not earning anything to do something like this Score Academy?

No. Just to support yourself for a year.
Ya that's what I was inferring...To be clear, it's not $3000/mo just for rent. That's probably a reasonable figure for expenses all in, though -- and that's assuming you have no debt/obligations.

Somewhere between $900-$1500 a month for a cheap studio or apartment share on the west side of LA, somewhere like Culver City. Perhaps less if you live far away but then you're paying for a car, gas, spending hours in traffic. Anyway that's $10-18,000 minimum for the year and then you need food and insurance. Probably about $20-30k all told.
Cause Tom brings you straight to the tableSheesh!
Why not just go to college out in LA and do music as a minor or on the side? You’ll bump into a bunch of other musicians if you network.
No need for couch surfing or panhandling to be some composer’s stooge.
I think he lives in Encino (right in the valley). You can probably get some cheaper living arrangements nearby (ie a room in a house etc)Just rent a room from someone in Palms or just South of Culver City. It’ll be dirt cheap and you’ll basically just sleep and just shower there. Very close to Santa Monica. If you aren’t actually assisting or being a runner then you won’t need a car. If you want to really do this the vi-c hivemind local to LA can help you figure out the unknowns.
Yea...i’d imagine that some sleepier parts of the valley could be pretty cheap if you are just renting a bedroom. If you work backwards and find a place not far from a metro stop, bring your bike, etc.I think he lives in Encino (right in the valley).
