Im just wondering if over all, better looking guys/girls get more opprotunities.

GIRLS (ladies? females? women?!) are expected to be gorgeous...or at least have access to a makeup person who can make us look flawless (...and a personal trainer, who can build a rockin' body)! My former voice coach told me that "there is no excuse for an ugly woman to be on the stage, unless she has the talent of a Goddess." Of course, my DAD said: "Looks fade. Get (and keep!) your skill level on '10', so nobody can accuse you of being 'just another pretty face'." After I finished GAGGING, I chose to follow Dad's advice. LoL

There are always exceptions.
I personally don't give a damn about how a performer looks.
Does their performance catch my attention, hold my attention and entertain?
That's the meat of the matter.
Sure some hot broad can dance around in a thong and get a crowd whether she can sing or not.
That however is selling sex . . . not music.
In my book that makes her a prostitute . . . not a musician.

The only appearance thing which would really put me off would be really offensive type stuff ... but whether the musicians are good looking or ugly doesn't matter to me as long as they can play and/or sing!
Lynn in New Orleans
P.S. There are a LOT of musicians here, and a lot of wannabes too
