Having your own band

[The Raven]

One thing is to listen to other bands but have you ever had a band or still do? If yes, was it hard to assemble "team" where you have singer, guitarist, keyboard (if needed), drummer and bass guitarist.
Is it hard to find gigs? And how much do you charge your performance?

If you don't have a band, have you tried to have one? Do you have friend/friends who do have a band? Have you tried to join a band (not yours) but you were rejected whatever the reason was?

I enjoyed music growing up. I just can't play an instrument or carry a tune in a bucket. I had friends who had their bands, and boy were they terrible but they had fun and that's all that mattered.

I sang with a band at college. We didn't have a name, we just worked out song ideas together. I couldn't be in a band though as I am not a team player.

I can't say I have ever had a band or been part of a band that did gigs or performed live for anyone but I remember I and my friends at school created a band and we would write our songs and it was a lot of fun.

We split up after a few months though when work and exams got on top of us in school which was a shame.
