Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Yes, of course!. As with anything there is lots of competition!. If by 'make it' you mean get a recording deal worth a lot of money, it can be done!. But first you would have to show that you are in it for the long haul and have the ability to create and keep an audience!. That means building a local following!. It means doing gigs that might not pay a lot at all at first!. It means being into it for the music so that not making a lot of money doesn't bother you so much!.

also self-publishing is a big deal now!. As an independent you can make a lot of money selling your own CDs on the Internet!. Some artists make enough doing that to live on!. You can make a living just selling 3,000 CDs while a huge record company needs to sell hundreds of thousands of CDs to make a meaningful profit!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

of coarse!
all you need to do is talk to the band and see if together, you can think up some songs!. they can play the music, you can be the lead singer!. they will need you just as much as you need them!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I hope!.
