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.

"he knows at 30, it's not fuckin' likely"

Tim, you're in!

It can happen.
I was watching Dogs days are over on youtube.
Florence thanks everyone saying it was a special moment to be on stage, "who would of thought from the tea tent to be up here"

wow it really kicked off in here last night didn't it? you guys are freaking crazy

wow, you bunch of complete caaaaahs - I can't believe this started after I'd gone to bed and I missed it!

I want in - I have me own leather trousers even though they'd only go round one leg now and everything! And I used to be a singist in a function band - we played in public and got paid about £20 each but it's still money.

So I'll fight yer for some of the songs, Alistron - or do backing vocals for the others (I do mean harmonising).

And I've still got rock chick hair i.e. long messy and in my face, so I'm sorted - unless you are insisting on group mullets, in which case I'd have to stick a wig on for the mulletty bit.

Oh yeah, and can we do Black Velvet and Etta James, cos they're my best songs, innit.

(just so you know, I didn't start my band singist bit until I was ~34/35, and was still doing it at 40, so it's not too late )

I missed it too and no are definitely not bu....I am 42 and still harbour thoughts of performing on a stage somewhere big...closest I get is in a choir! But I am pushing my dd aged 4 towards it, I will be the pushy mother in the background living vicariously through her, she loves it I promise

I've been in a band before (we once almost got paid, then that fell through) so I feel the glittering peak of my career has crested...also can't cope with the alcohol intake any more... BUT I have new muscles from my Zumba class and great bum cleavage with the right trousers, and am applying (pretty please?) for the position of Roadie/Sparks. I gotta van. Kind of.

Speaking as MANAGER, I think I get to say who is in, out, takes drugs, has a breakdown and choose the songs you perform.
tsunami, as long as you don't embarrass us by propostitoning impressionable young people.

ripstheirthroatout (aka KLU, no?) ah gwan, puleese lemme in and lemme do those two songs - they're my bestest (apart from Fairground Attraction's Perfect, but that might not fit the mood of the MNsters)

Jeez man that Absinthe fruitshoot is lethal, what happened??

Man i ended up in a bad place.

OK Thumwitch, you're in as long as you are prepared to give 230% (or whatever ridiculous phrase they use on BGT)
I am KLU but currently hiding behind my wolef name for anonymity. I think band managers get mobbed and want to avoid that.

Duuuude... what happened last night?

Last thing I remember is opening a carton of capri sun with alistron....

rips, as manager I demand a cup of tea and some cheese spread on toast. The talent needs looking after.

I don't make tea, tis the piss of the devil. It will be coffee only in my land/band.
Also, the caterers will take car of your outrageous diva ish demands of cheese on toast.

Morning. Can I volunteer for tour manager/stage crew? I can erect a mean bell tent.

Will you be wanting errr.... bunting on stage?

Centerparcs have made enquiries as to the availability of "nyce ham" over the October half term.....

Coffee Only, I'm sensing creative differences already.

Do You need backing dancers? I can dance, play guitar, violin and steel band

Not just coffee only - Nescafe only.

I can go for bunting, I think if it was made out of ham it would be a nyce touch.

rips, I want cheese spread on toast, not cheese

alistron I got Low Low, Laughing Cow (lite & full fat), Seriously Strong & Dairylea cheese spreads. What can I get ya? Which bread? I'll speak to some people I know.

I WANT DAIRYLEA ON MEDIUM SLICED LIGHTLY TOASTED WHITE AND I WANT IT BLOODY NOW.

That was my first rockstar tantrum. I enjoyed it. I came over all elton john.

I'll talk to the catering crew. No instant coffee allowed I'm afraid, it's freshly ground - vacuum packed at a push all the way.
Woolston neighbourhood hub have expressed interest in Nice Ham, but not until christmas although they are looking for a turn for Saturdays big event in the park.

Meet me by the stage door & I'll sort you out alistron. Let's say a 'friend' went to 'the caff' for you .

rips, have no fear - I won't proposition young people. I spend all my spare time trying to get away from them. And the musicians aren't the only divas around here...I need to check off a few T&C. I'm OK with coffee, but NOT instant. Can I bring an espresso machine onstage while I'm Roadying? I'll check the wattage against the Marshalls. And do Roadies get free olives?
Finally, can I wear an orchid in my bum cleavage?
