What does your family think of your band?

I get no support at all, they want me to quit so they can have a peacfull day.

Is everyones family like this?

no,my dad comes looking to every concert we make(that's in party's,clubs,and punk conferences(for non-contractual and non-financial support of whatsoever bands in some club,not big clubs anyway but we like it,what do i say we love it!)and my singer(and guitar player)dad brings us in his camper to every show

oh yeah my mom stays home,she doesn't like punk,so my dad's comes...L)

I don't have a band quite yet, but my dad is so wrapped up in my music he keeps trying to hook me up with certain people. it's kinda cool, but at the same time, i wish he would butt out, and let me find my own band.....although he did hook me up with this one chick who has her own studio.....so i'm looking forward to doing some recordings...she's gonna let me use her drummer and basist too, to record my first song.

it'll be rad.

well my paretns really couldn't care less..hah...they give me rides and shit to our drummers house when we have band practices and stuff, and sometimes let us have some here..but other than that.....errr...nothing really...

My parents aren't bothered either, not that they really show. My dads been to a couple of our gigs and my mum says "oh, thats good" when I update her on things. My brother is in to music, he's mad about a few local bands, but he doesn't say much about mine. It's just like "oh yeah, my sisters in a band".

I don't have a band...I have no musically gifted friends...Kel's dad tried to get us to start a band, but she didn't think she was good enough at bass...bless her.

i don't get a lot of support to be honest. but they haven't asked me to quit yet cuz i'm sure they know the answer i will give. my dad's kinda ok with it, but my mom's a bit more sketchy about it. but i don't care, my band is the best thing that's happened to me since a looong time and i am not giving it up anytime soon.

they're saying that im playing too loud, too fast and very bad at all...

I'm not really in aband but I play the guitar and my two friends and I are thinking about starting a band..
But only two of us can play little guitar and no one can sing =) and now I'm moving.. I'll stay friends with them but it will be a long way to go for band practice..

And oh (what you actually was talking about
My mom doen't care really much. She thinks it's fun that I started playing guitar but it's not likes she's on to me all the time and asks what's going on and so..

sorry for the long message with no useful information.

i don't have a band , i play alone...but my parents support me in any way...hehe...like my mum is an english teatcher n she aklways asks me to let her check my songs for any mistakes..hehehe...she can still dream of it but it's ok..sometimes..n my dad always asks me to play for him n stuff like that...my mum wants me to teach her....hehehe...but well. i'm lucky to have such good parents

Me mum doesnt even know bout my band lol but its called difibulator wot a strange but cool name lol dw if ur parents dont like ur band, der prob aint it

My parents just ignore me, but when we get too loud they are like "TURN DOWN THE FUCKING SOUND!!!" lol, it gets kinda annoying cause then we can't really play...

i bet if my band had shows and shit and my mom went to any of them, she'd probably come up on stage and put us in certain spots so she could take pictures

Well, my Dad is shocked because from his side of the family, records show I am THE first person to show any musical interest for 70 years.

My Mum has the occasional complaining session.

My 2nd guitarist's Dad has some fucking awesome guitars, and I guess he would be happy.




My bassist's parents are buying him a left handed bass, and they sound like they're being nice about it.

Drummer wise, the drum machine's parents were a coffee machine and an mp3 player, which means he's fucking brilliant and an keep going all night. Although we have a few human drummers.
