I've always had a dream to become a rock star... not like SUPER famous.. but at least known in my city. maybe like a garage band or something like that.

well here's the problem.. actually theres a lot of problems

-I LOVE to sing.. but my voice isn't all that great
-I have stage fright
-i have never sung in front of an audience.. not even my family
-I want to be in a band, but i don't know what to do... like a drummer, guitarist or vocalist but i like ALL of them. I could see myself doing all of them.
-The only instruments i've played were the piano and clarinet.. so i'd have to take up lessons for guitar or drums... but i probably won't have the time to practice or have the lessons

heres my schedule

mondays- soccer practice
tues.- soccer conditioning
wed- soccer practice
thur- nothing
fri- soccer practice
and then every other saturday or sunday is a soccer tournament.


HELP HELP HELP!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks soooooo much for reading this.. i know this is long and i REALLY appriciate it if you could help me. You have no idea how much i love to sing and listen to music... i need help.

If you love singing go for that.As long as you don't have a god awful voice,it could work.Really,the key to being a real "Rock star" is charisma.If you have that then you can make anything happen.You have to be able to feed off of your audiences energy as well as have them feed off of yours.It's like a never ending cycle between you and them and there aren't any barriers.As for getting it together,just sort of ask around.I'm sure if you try there are a few people around that you could make a band with.And stage fright...it's like any other fear.Face it and if it doesn't kill you,it'll go away.Finally and most importantly:if this is something you're truly serious about-don't give up.If you have ambition and you have what it takes it could happen.

Hope this helped,and good luck :)
