    can we maybe add a couple more "essential functions"?
    I mean... we already have 13, what harm will 2 or 3 more do?

  2. The particular need intended for musician jobs in most field is constantly on the go up, plus the audio sector isn't any exception to this rule. There are several music artists and bands who have the particular ability although have no careers.
