What advice do you have for a new band just starting out?

: )What advice do you have for a new band just starting out?
young teenage girls can be the difference between an average show and a great nightWhat advice do you have for a new band just starting out?
PRACTICE A LOT and get a lot of gigs at like, anywhere w/ open mic and stuff! Every opportunity you can get, do it!
Don't give up, if you have something good, keep at it. Unless you really stink, then quit. But anyway, it takes a lot of commitment, so if you can't handle it, don't make the rest of the band suffer, also it could be a long time before you r band reaches anywhere close to the top, so don't give up. Also, be true to yourself, and don't change the whole band to w/e is in at the time, if your punk, stay punk, don't change just because rap is in. and always stay positive!


Good Luck!!
learn to ';read'; your crowd - do stuff they respond to and save the ';dead'; stuff for requests
if the band is ready to tour and is willing to just be out there,


because that's what it is all about, no one will look out for your band but the band. gotta be ready. blood, sweat, and tears.
Once u get places to perform, don't spend the money right away. Save it for future use
do a lot of covers and when u r synchronize then start making ur own stuff
Advertise a bunch, get your name out there. Offer to do community gigs or party's and clubs for free, I know that sucks, but it gets the word out. sometimes you have give up the money to find the fame.
