Went really well
Weather was awful and our keyboard got very wet. We were all drenched but we still had fun and we got a huge cheer at the end of it all, so alls good.
Got another practise tomorrow morning thn on the 26th were playing at Leverhulm Park, anyone know it? It's supposed to be really big, so fingers crossed really

Well it's the night before the permormance and i'm obviously feeling nervous, Anyone got any last minute tips???
Well not long till our performance on the 12th July and 26th July. Can't wait! We are playing after only being together for about 6-7 weeks with a 2 hour practise each week, and i've got to say.....we are actually really good!! The band is called push to flip (an idea from our singer). We have learnt 3 songs so far and just need to touch up on the last one: Kings of leon- Mollys chambers, Coldplay- clocks (Dont worry its our own version and we made it so much better and rockier(if thats a word)) and our own song also made up by our singer and our lead guitarist. I think it's called No your mine but I'm not sure. I'm also thrilled to bits with the bass and how quick ive managed to pick it up and I am definately intending to carry on! So all's going well!!!!
Wish us luck!

ummm....yeah little confusing but now im not playing lead in the band im the bassist
We didnt have one and im rubbish at lead so i said id have a go. They let me borrow one and its going really good so far and i can already play my chemical romance-teenagers and kings of leon-mollys chambers
So so far so good i spose
Wne to the audition today it was great! We get put into bands. All the others are older and better but i'll be okay hopefully
fingers crossed x
A miricle has happened!!
My mum saw an ad in the paper for a 10wk rock school course and it's free! Me and my friend (the one i mentioned earlier) are going to go and they teach you how to play your instrument and about songwriting and performance. You meet all the other people there aged between 11 and 18. You form bands and if you get good enough by the end of the course you can perform! I cant wait!!!
okay thanks for all the advice everyone!
Thanks for the advice. I see what you mean and I am taking a lot on at once I guess I'm just expecting everything to fall into place. I just feel like nothings happening for me but I wont give up because I'm really into it now. I'm going to talk to my music teacher when I get back in school, he's in his own band and plays lead. You probably wouldn't have heard of them but not really my kind of music 
Thanks for the advice. It might take some time though as at the moment my friend hasn't played drums before and I'm not very good at the guitar. From what I've read lead guitar sounds very complex but I can already play very little green day and my chemical romance melodies but I've been spending a lot of time practising them. I have been playing for 2 and a half years but i don't feel as if I'm getting anywhere. My dad can help me and I have lessons at school but things like homework really get in the way. We have already decided on a possibility for a name for the band and have been writing lyrics for our own songs so i guess so far so good. Will keep you informed of any miricles!

My chemical romance (total genius')
evanesance
green day
Hi I'm new here. I joined because I wanted some advice.
I'm 13 and me and my best friend want to start a band. I play guitar but I don't consider myself very good at it yet and i want to learn how to play lead guitar. My friend is interested in playing the drums. We are really into my chemical romance, Avril Lavigne, Green Day, panic at the disco, evanesance that sort of thing and I think since hearing thier music we'd love to make our own band. Does anyone have any advice for us :?:
thanks
