I'm 17, and looking for ANYONE, (Younger or most likely older)

Looking to audition and to make an impression!

I've started writing songs as well.
I'm new to the whole, look online thing.
I'm fresh out of school, and need life experience, and what could dry out the wet behind my ears better than getting into a band?

I've had vocal lessons since I was little, choirs and then when I got into high school it was minor school bands, and jam's with mates and stuff.
Nothing serious.

I'm just looking to Expand my horizons and get a little famous

When you sing do you sound very strong and manly like Kam ( Barney ) Lee from Massacre, or do you sound very weak and juvenile like John Toogood from shihad? What or who do you soundlike?

Sounds like he has spent more time singing than gargling on gravel so his vocals probably don't sound like he's got a hairball stuck in his throat :wink: I could be wrong though, maybe he was in some kind of death metal choir :lol:

I agree with Rocky, JTs vocals are excellent
