Hey there Ally,
I am usually working as a house photographer now a days (Kingdom/Canal Club/occasionally Empire) so I never have to worry about a press pass there.
As for other larger shows such as when I shoot Warped Tour, The National, Hat Factory, or Sonar; I had been hired by a band, management/ promotions company, or a publication and they got me the press or all access pass I needed.
Start shooting smaller shows and hone your craft and then reach out to some small publications and see if they will pick you up.
Not at all! Come up and say hey sometime!
Just get out to shows and start shooting. Practice and work on your craft.
