This is really good advice, only fight battles you can win !

Dude, If you don’t like it, start your own...band / concert whatever.....

When I was at school (in the late middle ages), I was in several bands and all of them were loads of fun ! We fell on our asses, broke strings, made people unhappy with out horrible under rehearsed racket and it was great ! We didn’t have any support from any of the teachers (who were eventually pleased to get rid of us) however that didn’t stop us.

If you want to do it, well do it ! Don’t break any laws, but still do it !

Best of luck !
