I agree, stick to school. You can use that time to practice with your band to become the next superstar.

thanks for all the advice guys, I'm taking most of it to heart.

for clarification, the band isn't all as young as me.
Singer - 26 Married with 3 kids
Backup (doesn't give him justice) - 29
Drummer - 23
Guitar - 25
Keyboard - 2?
Manager - 4?
I'm the only one in school, everyone except the drummer are full-time musicians, the manager works, but without him, we'd be nothing. The drummer, my roomate, changes oil, and practices drums, wants to be a drummer, and plans on going to tech school for mechanics. It's not like we're a college kid band, I just happen to be in the group and in college. When the band was being formed, I was the first person called, because they know I'd be able to do what they wanted musically, and I can, but I don't know if that's the best path... time will tell.

best thing to do in thi ssituation is to go out in the driveway and rev the honda....that always gets my brain juices flowin

don't have driveway, just a slab between the garage and the ally, and the cops show up if I stand in the ally and fart after 10 o'clock-our neighbors hate us, something about a sound ordinance.

Do what you love and the money will follow. It doesn't sound like music is that love.
Even if it is, there are no guaranties in the music industry. I have a friend(lots older than me)that was the guitarist in the 70s disco funk band Wild Cherry. Play that funky music white boy was there only hit. Now he drives a fork truck for a printing company. He was a successful musician, now he is a working stiff.

Shout out to all the college supporters. I came to a hard realization last year that i wasnt going to be rich until i got an education, whatever that may be. the job market is very slim for unskilled labor.

imadouche

yeah but he can always go back to college i know plenty of people who have done it

Yeah but why waste the time f-ing around if you can get out of college relatively young,get a kick *** job,buy a house all before you are 28.Thats the way I see it.

I mean Im living proof that you dont even need a high school diploma to make really good money but then again I wont get rich doing what I do and my work is verry phisycal.

Stay in school jung and work with your mind(not phisycal work),in a nice air conditioned ofice,making alot of money!

im not going to argue this anymore just because people have different out looks on life and your not going to change them. but if it were me id go with the band and if it didnt workout go back to school cause what if ---- does work out and you make millions. you only live once
