Answer 1

do wat panic at the disco did

put some vids of ur band playing on the internet, like youtube.com and stuff, and maybe someone important will find it. it would be good if u put ur own songs on there so people can see wat u can do.

and practice a lot!!! like every day if possible!

Answer 2

What is "something like a band"? Are you in a band or not?

Why don't you care if it's your band or just your self?

What is "famous or something? What's the something?

Why are you asking us for ideas? If you don't know, who will?

If you don't have a clear idea of who you are and what you want, you aren't ready to succeed, let alone anything else.

Just look at your language.

There is no determination. No will. No clarity. No motivation. No plan. No strategy. No real desire. No vision. Just "like I kinda wanna, sorta, don't care, something like, I dunno, maybe, famous or something... any idea?"

WHAT??? Get real. If you want to achieve a goal, you have a clear vision of what the goal is. You don't care exactly how you get there, you just know, unreasonably, without a single doubt that you will get there, come h**l or high water.

You know you are doing whatever it takes, every single day, to achieve not just success, but excellence at that single thing you do best, better than anyone in the world.

There is no vague lingo in your speech. There is no question about what it is you will do. You are doing it. You are motivated, you live, eat, breathe, and excrete the thing that you do (assuming it's music). You have passion for it. It is an extension of what you do. It's your mission in life. And there is almost nothing else.

From this state of mind, you then start writing out a plan and strategy. Start with the goal. A grammy perhaps. Work backwards from the goal. If you just got a grammy, how did this happen? What was it for? Best new song? How did the song happen? The work back from this step. Then from that step. And so on, right back to where you are right here, right now.

Now you can see clearly what it takes to get to the goal of Grammy Award. Do not leave a single detail out. Do the research. Allow for all variables. Write this stuff down. Now put it way in a safe place. Don't look at it for a while. Commit to it. Every day, take action. Even just one single action towards your goal.

Don't get caught up worrying about HOW. Don't think. Just DO.

This is how it works.

And remove all the lazy self-doubt dopey talk from your language and thinking. That does nothing but hold you back.

Now get to work.

Answer 3

Get off the internet and practice on your bass.. Simple as that.

The more practice you have the better you will become. these things don't happen overnight you know.
