It doesnt hurt. Just remember the good words of Bon Scott: "Its a long way to the top if ya wanna rock 'n' roll!" For us average folks who dont have famous fathers, the music industry is a ladder, in which you have to start at the bottom and slowly climb your way to the top. Just keep trying...

Say "Well then, Id like to see you pick up a bass and play." They're obviously ignorant little punks who know nothing about music, so forget about it. You know its not an easy instrument and most other true musicians understand this as well, so thats all that matters. They were probably just...

I dont know man, I hear a good bass player is hard to find. It seems like every other punk in school wants to learn guitar. And even now, I know LOTS of people who play guitar--theyre a dime a dozen, but rarely, very rarely do I run into someone who plays bass. But hey, look at the bright side...

Well, having a "leader" whos head is firmly planted up her rear is definitely a factor! Lets just say she had a bit, just a bit of an ego problem. She thought she was the hottest musician on the block, thought she knew everything, and that everyone else was beneath her and should be "honored" to...

I agree as well, that he meant ACTING professional. You can certainly be professional, without actually being professional. And I agree with what he said at the end that the music business lacks professionalism these days. For the most part, I agree with his "rules." Yes, as a general guideline...

I dont think age is an issue, for me at least. Ive been in many groups where there was a big age gap between myself and the others. Age was never a factor in the break up of the group or anything else for that matter. As long as your heads in the right place, you have a professional attitude...

LAUGHING. MY. F$#@&^%. A$$. OFF. Seriously almost fell out of my chair! I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall during your meeting w/ the company owner!

Damn, sold out! I would totally pay $60 to see Jack, and anyone that knows me personally knows how much Im obsessed with JB (not in a creepy stalker way). I hope JB does a summer tour soon and comes through Pittsburgh. Unfortunately I was born about 40 years too late to ever see Cream back in...

There's a fine line between constructive criticism and being insulting. Its all about delivery. If the brutal honesty is stated positively, with encouragement than its constructive. But if the brutal honesty is stated in a rude, belittling fashion, than it comes across as insulting. I dont mind...

+1 Look at the bands that still play like The Stones, The Who, Aerosmith, Ted Nugent that still got it...well into their late 50s-60s. Thats over the hill for a rocker! But the way I see it, youre NEVER too old to play, even if they have to push you out in a wheelchair. Until youre laying in a...

+1!

Well you can NOT hang out w/ him, AND not hate him at the same time. As tZer put it, hating someone takes up energy and requires you to actively think negatively about them, and why would you do that for someone whos such a waste of time? Im in the same situation. I was really good friends w/ a...

Yep, its pretty much the same over here in the states. But me, being a girl, am NOT interested in either rappers or DJs. As far as actual rockstars we have Pete Wentz-eww, and Benji Madden-double eww! Now if I had a time machine to the late 60's.... Again, as a girl, I can say I didnt get into...

+1 You know, think of Simon Cowell when he rips into these idiots who try out for Idol. Some people think he's too harsh, others (like me) think its funny. I agree w/ him, because I've learned that some people need to be told frankly and sometimes with brutal honesty that they are NOT as good...
