Also, contact small record labels to see if they need someone to write onesheets for new releases. You probably won't get paid for this, but you can consider it an "internship" of sorts and it will look good on your resume. Also of there are any smaller events that are happening in your town, you could contact the organizer and offer to write program notes or promotional writeups for them. Think beyond just "record and show reviews" and get into all areas of music writing. There is a lot to be done out there, even if you're doing free work to build a resume for yourself. You will also need to learn to not be completely attached to your articles, as editors will chop your work into tiny pieces. A good editor and a good writer working together can be a great thing though, so don't get snippy when your stuff gets snipped.
