Oh my gosh! You could tour with Cordell Jackson!

She's in her 80's and she shreds on guitar. She plays rockabilly style, she had a brief celebrity moment in the 80's when she starred in a Budweiser commercial with Brian Setzer, she blew him off the stage in a guitar duel. She's really amazing!

I would LOVE to work as an actress ( is everyone saying actor now?), but don't you have to pay a lot of money to take a screen test? I would try to get a job as an extra, but I'm too far from LA to commute. I'm not sure I'm extra material also.

honestly extra work is one of the most pitiful jobs you can have but it's alot more fun than working in an office lol it's easy to be an extra though, but you only make minimum wage, there are alot of ups and downs to it, if you have any questions, just ask me ;)

lol............i confess i'd love just once to be an extra on a set....not because i want to get into the business........god no!!........i'm a terrible actress.....lol.....i'm a real ham......lol.......but i love finding out about the whole process and it would be fascinating to be on a set and see it for real..........and i think the only way i'd get to access a set is if i was an extra.............and no it doesn't need to be a Jim movie......it's the process i'm interested in........

fluffy :wink:

Same here. After Jeopardy they put us on a golf cart to go back to the parking lot and it was so cool to just peek and wonder about all the soundstages.

My dad and my nana were extras in "Guarding Tess."

Another way might be to get a job at one of the studios, you know in production or something, that might not be too hard, but I bet you still need to know someone
