==The Sims==
The '''musician''' career track is one of the five Career Tracks from ''The Sims'' expansion pack ''Livin' Large''. It has a similar pay at rank 1 and the same pay at ranks 9 and 10 as [[entertainment]] from the base game, but follows a much more bent pay curve along the way, with lower pay at every rank except 9 and 10, the fifth-lowest pay in the game at ranks 5 and 6, and the fourth-lowest pay at rank 7, beating only [[slacker]], [[circus]], and [[education]]. It also requires a higher number of friends to reach rank 10 than Entertainment does.

The difference between devotee and Fan are miniscule, but it makes all the difference in the world when you’re later asked to join the band on tour.
