What should I do with band?

if you have to do one or the other pick the one you think you will like the most because of friends or it might be easier to get a better in one class or because you like one teacher better.  Don't do it for your mom do it for you.  you will be the one taking the tests and sitting in class.  Your mom can still give you advice she does know what she is talking about but this is a decision for you.  So make it and own it.  Most importantly HAVE FUN!!!

Meet them at a concert. Most likely you'll actually get to meet and talk to the band.

Did u try to enter a contest? sometimes if u are active on a street team you can meet a band....sometimes they have signings after a show. sometimes u can even win backstage passes of the radio. or even buying them. I dont know much on meeting bands. I hope this helps a little.

You should definitely do it, life is short and all that...but can you and your friends play, and what type of band are you going to be? Hopefully, there's chemistry beyween the members that will make up your band,and the elements , like songwriting, music writing, promoting,etc.,can all be parcelled out without drama.Lots of work , but there is NOTHING like that first live show, even if only a few people show up, the joy of discovery on everyone's faces will more than make up for any problems.Go for it!

Great question. Jam. That's the simple answer. Have them get together and play something slow like a blues in 12/8 time (a la Stevie Ray Vaughn) and pass off solos every 2 or 3 times through the pattern. Everyone will start listening closer, because they will have to ultimately take a solo (sorry bro, i would just lay down the drum beat and not solo). Once everyone is listening more and really FEELING the music that they play, find rock songs that they really understand and feel. Jam everytime before you play and you will have a tight band in no time!\n\n- 12 year musician

you should have stated what bands or artists you currently like, hears my advice go to www.pandora.com and enter your favorite band or artist and it will start playing similar music to fit your taste, its a good way to find new or different artists.

Add other bands with lots of friends. Preferably similar to your music, then leave comments saying you think these people may enjoy your music too.

You need to broaden your listening a little bit.  Knowing the genres will help you figure them out.  Look at the bands in any particular genre and see what their sound has in common. :-)

Have parishioners volunteer to play their drum set, bass guitar, etc in the church band.  You can meet an hour before mass each Sunday to go over the music, and just jam it.  Pick music that is upbeat, modern, and interesting.  A lot of churches are doing this, including mine, where I'm a pianist at one of the masses.

go to a thrift shop or someplace like that...they always have funky clothes...when I was in a band that's where we used to get all our clothes.

Start taking pictures of bands.\n\nFind some local bands, contact them and take some free pictures.  Let them know you're trying to do it professionally and to spread the word.  Local bands are always looking for people to help them get images for websites, flyers, EP covers, and to satisfy their own vanity.

you mean switch from band to another elective?  tell them this:\n\nthe best reason why anyone would switch from band to another elective would be because they don't enjoy playing an instrument, not because there's a new teacher.
