Don't ask us for advice. Ask someone who knows you better than anyone and see what they think. Talk to your parents...
I would not say that parents are the arbiters of good taste. Granted, their house, their rules. But I would look more to people who have a style you admire.
Luke and I talked ONCE very briefly about our nail polish and tattoos since both of ours are visible. We basically said if they're gona hire us they do, if they don't they don't.
So my guess is that you just shotgun your way to gigs without bothering to do any work on finding a target market/demographic. Am I far off?
Just be yourself and the rest will come naturally.
Mmmmmm, no it won't. There's no substance to claims like that.
Be you, there is nothing "wrong" with it, what is wrong is for you to question it, therefore, it sounds like that you are trying to be someone else. Always remember to be yourself.
Be yourself, be yourself, be yourself... does anyone even know what that means? If I have to listen to that shallow cliche for another page, I'm going to rip somebody's friggin' head off!
(I think) your completely wrong.
if I did what my parents said I wouldn't be me, I would be their puppet. if anyone wants to be a puppet then fine but don't say it works like that.
be yourself, if that means your parents don't like it then good for you.
Yes, rage against the machine. Even if you have no idea what raging entails or what the machine even is.
