Welcome Purple
It seems a lot of us were in bands. I played with some of the biggest at the time (QMS, Deep Purple, etc.) I hated performing, and tried to stay entirely in the writing and arranging end. I'm still one H**L of a guitarist.
You can write about your experiences in music. You will get as much rejection in one field as in the other, so you develop a thick skin and give the ..!. to your non-constructive critics in both.
I wrote several murder mysteries around bands, drawing on actual happenings (such as the fact you can use a murder mystery to kill off an agent who you think should be knocked over in real life).
Oh, well. Welcome, and I'll be looking for some posts. A singer/songwriter usually has an "ear" for poetry -- trhough that isn't true in my own case. Well, much. A little. songs ARE poetry.
