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 Grin

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 Wink

Flame me and make me bloody grow up.

Do you want a brand new house on an episode of Cribs?
And a bathroom you can play baseball in?
And a king size tub big enough plus you?

We just need a Jagger/Richards thing going on for tension, and a bit of fleetwood mac partner swapping plus some drug addiction (in the fullness of time)

Christ, any kickings out and line up changes would make the 'moldie'/mumsnet royalty thing look tame!!!

Also, could we have a 'rivalry' with another (inferior) band, and engage in a war of words, played out in public using the media?

Do netmums have a band?

Netmums wouldn't write their own music. They'd do covers.

Of SAW songs

I'll give you a spade Pathan - it'll be entirely up to you what you do with it Wink but I'll be off to find a live stiff.
