If i want to have a semi-successful band, what should i do?!


Question:

If i want to have a semi-successful band, what should i do?

i want to have a band. i'm 15. i need a drummer, a guitar a bass player and a drummer... and a van...and a vocals person (maybe) i have a guitar and i am learning how to play it. i need help finding other people interested in being in a punk/screamo band. i also need ideas for saving money. also, how do i attract the attention of a small record label and get started with the band and a CD? how should we practice? i have strict parents and they wouldn't like the idea of me trying to start a band... especially if we are gonna have things like cussing and mohawks and tattoos... i need a way to get my parents not to disown me, and yet still have a cool band that has at least a remote chance of becoming the nest Green Day... (i don't have that much self esteem... but anyway...) yeah help with that kind of stuff... and maybe someone who lives in central illinois interested in starting a band... i hate illinois... nothing but cornfields as far as the eye can see... anyway... help... thanks...

Answers:

to start a band i dont think you should look for a label yet
you can start making music and give the music to people and upload it to myspace, purevolume, etc
to find people go to a place where musicians will be like a mall or a music store and ask like crazy
i dont think your parents will ever agree
you can give them examples of bands who started out as kids just trying to make music or you can do it anyways without their permission
money- you can get a parttime job or play at places that give you money or you can beg in a busy area and to save you will have to think smart and only spend if necessary.
to get a van try going to a junk yard or something and see if theyll give you a van/car and you can fix it up or you can borrow someone's van
