Mobius: Yeah i love Cranberries. Happening. Hee. Thanks~
The rest: Erm... i wasn't aware one comment from Jimmy Page would spark so much feedback. Well... Jimmy ain't so wrong (speaking from a gal's point of view) cos it's rare to see a female vox these days. So when a gal takes on stage, everyone would sit up and listen intently (of course a handsome dude would create such impact too, but that's besides the point). Same goes for me cos i always admire people with good vocals/style. I'll spend time waiting just to hear the first few words coming out from the girl's mouth. When it sucks, i will move on, irregardless of how attractive the girl is. But when she sings well, i would give her the respect she deserves by staying on and i'll applause loudly to show that she has done the girls' proud even if she doesn't look that swell. Never judge a book by its cover.
Of course those singing in pubs are meant to draw crowds and supporters (esp men - you know how men are... hee). Often, they are making a living. Different story if you are performing for interest. Other than looking presentable (dress sexy if you personally like, but not to flaunt too much) would be good. Main thing is to let the people out there hear your voice and feel the connection of the band.
I am keeping my fingers crossed for such a day when i don't get people walking away in disgust when i sing. haha. I would be grateful if they pause to listen, even with no expression (for a start).
So gals, relax... like what fgl said, it's hard work no matter newbie or not. Even if one is sexy and look pretty on stage, she may not make it in the long run if her voice can't make it. What we are looking for is long term recognition. (erm... talking too much as a newbie... ending here)
PS: I heard that female voxs are greatly in demand so let's work hard gals!!! Cheers!
