AIBU at the age of 37 to want to be a rock star?

[alistron1]

Obviously I know it will never happen, but whereas other people dream about winning the lottery, having a new car or buying the house of their dreams... I dream about being the front woman of a band headlining at glastonbury

I do play in a duo with DP, but so far we've not been brave enough (or able to agree on a set list) to perform properly in public (only in front of friends/family)

I just want to be Robert Plant (but not if he's the one boffing liz jones)

My DP and kids think that I'm a saddo. And they are probably right

Flame me and make me bloody grow up.

I am in my forties and I am still very certain that I am poised for stardom.

I will be talent spotted. I have heard Geri Halliwell sing and I think - I could do that!

Will you need a guitarist for your band?

Suncottage, maybe we could form a band..a MN supergroup?!!

I'll share lead vocals but I must do lead guitar (as long as you don't expect fancy solo's)

And we have to wear leather trousers and demand pom bears on our rider.

Giyadas - can you do fancy solo's? You can step in for me in those bits.

I've never given up hope. The fact that I can't sing, play any instrument or have a glimmer of song writing ability doesn't dampen my dream.

Aurra, you can be our Bez.

semi-fancy (think muse)
can do bass too, if you've baggsied guitar.

Oh yes, you can do bass. But none of that level 42 shit.

I'll practice my moves.

I'll spring for the maraca's

no, more like Sgt Floyd Pepper from the muppets.
without as much facial hair

37? Spring bloody chicken!!! The advantage of Jagger, Richards and Cliff still doing the circuit is that if you think you're over the hill for a rock-star, they're on a whole other hill.

We need MNHQ to sponsor us and buy the equipment and leather trousies. They could make a film about us, it would rival spinal tap I'm sure.

Cogito, you make a very valid point!!

YANBU I am 38 and know that stardom is just around the corner. Movies for me!

we'll need a talc allowance as well.

I can do great 'Jazz Hands'.Am i in? .

and a lot of leather.

Pathan, there is always room for jazz hands. You and 'bez' can do general prancing.

You could go on X Factor and be famous, like Asda Mary. She was 40+, so was SuBo. Or Wagner

Not very rock'n'roll though, granted. You'll have to be discovered in a grotty pub somewhere.

I can play triangle & that keyboard shaped thing you blow to play. And the glockenspiel. Not much call for a 'rockenspiel' though I s'pose

can I play keys?? I am DESPERATE to be in a band full time...

mumbling, you could make your debut in the music video. T'would then just be a matter of time, surely.

Sue, ffs - we're talking about forming a rock supergroup...not being fucking Jedward
