Help on starting a band, 10 points?

start by networking at coffee houses and open mic nights. until you meet some people that have the same style and taste as you. it really is all about talking to people and networking. another idea would be to find a band that exists already and offer to be a backup singer and then work your way into an opportunity to be the lead some of the time. the more you network the more doors will open. you can also gain recognition by putting videos of yourself performing on youtube, and do local talent shows. network everywhere you can
