A contest and a concert are two completely different things. Competitors enter contests to prove something to themselves or to others. A successful musician has already gone through all that crap and can now capitalize on it.
His using established musicians isnt a good point. When amateur bands first start to play out...They have to sell a certain amount of tickets, or pay for them out of pocket. Its called Pay to play in the music industry.
Amateurs of any kind will have to pay to make it...the prices seem a bit high for body building so I'm not saying he isn't making a point, just he doesn't understand any amateur industry.
