To Metalhead: I'll head your advice and beware of perverts online. I'm not one however, I'm just a 17-year-old girl that's looking for kids my own age to chat about music and Queen with. But I'll be wary with my email address... good luck with starting a band!

Thanks for being so cool about me not emailing you. Like I said, you sound pretty cool yourself. By the way, what instrument do you play in your band? Just curious...

Yours truly,
Steve

In my band I play lead guitar (till I find someone better), flute, keyboard, some bass when my bassist plays clarinet, and I'm the lead singer...quite an undertaking.

Wow, you're talented...

:)

Ha ha...thanks. What are you going to play if you start a band? And did you say you were going to do Ska music? That's brilliant!

I'd love to play my horn "if" I'm in a ska band or jazz band. However, in a heavy metal band I would love to play drums. Since that is what I'm best at compared to my guitar playing. The main reason why I want to start a band is because I have a few musical ideas I want to express. I consider myself a frustrated musician...

Are you any good at drums and guitar? Who are your influences? I'm a frustrated musician too...I have trouble writing because my guitar playing's bluesy, my singing's motown/freddie/robert plant like and the rest of my band is zeppelin freaks...it's hard.

I suck at guitar, because I just got started. As for my drumming, its "OK." I hadn't played drums since 8th grade and I'm in 12th right now. And just a couple of days ago I played the drumset and people said I was pretty good. So I figure if I were to practice regularly I might have a chance at being a drummer.

My main influence is Queen, however, I am influenced by bands like Metallica and Judas Priest. I'm also fond of opera. So when I compose music its usually kind of wierd. Its sort of like I want to write a good rock song but it always comes across as classical. So I guess I'm into mixing rock and classical music. Which when you think about it, Queen did the same thing. Ex: The Millionaire Waltz & Bohemian Rhapsody.

When its all said and done, however, I'm more of a trumpet player than anything. I just happen to have an interest in starting a band outside of my high school band. I just don't know how to get it started. Should I contact people in other bands and ask them if they no anybody? Or should I find a few friends who are beginners just like me? I really have no idea how to get started. Any advice would be lovely...

I found my old guitar player at school...he was just playing and I asked him to be in a band and he said yeah. I found my drummer on my ex-boyfriend's myspace page...If you're serious about it, ask around for the best musicians, but if you're doing it for fun, gather up some friends who are beginners. Myspace is helpful if you go on your school's forums and post classifieds. Putting an ad in the paper or flyers around school is really great too...hope that was some help.

Thanks for the advice! :)
