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.

redhead - yes keyboards are essential. I'm thinking a bluesy, rock keyboard type thing. Not prog rock though. No prog rock allowed.

YANBU.

And all the ladies who have mentioned starting a mumsnet band, yes, you should, and enter BGT or X-Factor next year !

You could call yourselves 'Nice Ham' or something.

Nobody would fuck Jedward

Yes, I am ashamed. I am so not cool.

'rockenspiel'

i think a MN supergroup would be a fine fine thing. Where you based alistron?

And yes, mumble can star in the video and iklboo can do the triangle.

redhead - birmingham. Home of Ozzy.

and yes, I'll play any style you want. Just so I can be in a rock band. I'm not fussy. although if she makes me play any Elton John I may have a tantrum

'Nice Ham' ... I like it.

shit I'm in London. bad form. Skype rehearsals?

YANBU. Rock on you badass bitch. Or something.

Oh yes, a skype rehearsal would be fine. I could just move to 'that london' though in the pursuit of high art

My family/boss would understand.

I think iklboo might need to be promoted from triangle to drums.

I know we can all do it! I saw Sandy Shaw playing support to Jools Holland the other month.

Jeeeesus - she has made that caterwauling into a fifty year career. My ears bled.

I am thinking The Bangles/Blondie/Suzi Q/St Winifred's School Choir and not forgetting Clare and Friends with 'It's 'Orrible Being in Love When Your Eight and a Half'

Smokin

[Blows on fingers]

Suzi Q...we could remake 'Can the Can' rewording it to 'Ham the Ham'

Woohoo! I'm gonna be a rock star

I've got to go and make a lasagne now (well put it in the oven) this time next year I'll have a rock minion/groupie to do this shit for me.

Can I be your tour manager? I have experience invading the stage and signing autographs.
When I was around 17 (30 odd years ago), me and my friends went to see Modern Romance. For some reason I decided that I was part of the band and they had forgotten to tell me we were playing that night.
I spent a good 20 mintues prancing round and ended up signing autographs.

Can't make rehearsals until after tea though and not all on Friday's as I like the house to be tidy for the weekends. Apart from that. No problem.

Throws TV out of the window and drives car into puddle pool.

possible album cover concept?

I have a name for my imageinary rock band.

Dh knows what it is and he just humours me!!

yeah we definitely need a drummer... do you think you can stand the pace iklboo?

I've got some wigs somewhere and glitter spray if anyone needs it wonders why no-one has asked me to be in a proper band before

Oh! I have just googled my imaginary bands name and it turns out there is a song of the same title!!

I'm not as orignal as I thought!

giyadas, I've got to try and explain to DP what that drawing is

I love it. We need t-shirts asap.
