Any of you performance bronies ?

[Miss Light Diamond 2,802]

Are there any bronies out there who are/want to perform for a living ?

By perform I mean the usual stuff, Acting, dancing, singing Ext

And if you do, What type of thing is it you want to do ?

Do you want to write dubstep or sing opera ?

 

I want to spin fire or do some kind of aerial act in the circus

[Master Blade the Bearded 112]

I don't do it for a living, as I am in high school, but I am in a dance group. Speaking of performances, I have one coming up this weekend :/

Why :/ .Do you not enjoy it ? or are you just not feeling the groove ?

What kind of dancing do you do ?

I have always been interested in ballroom dance.

I used to be in a few metal bands. Those were some good times. If I ever got the chance to do that again (or even better: tour), I probably would.

[CloudFyre 848]

I live and breathe electronic music, thus I have a dream of becoming an international DJ/live dance music artist. I'm not sure if I'll ever reach that point, since 1) it requires time that I don't really put towards it, and 2) I'm working towards a Bachelor's of Computer Science and Engineering, which is quite a bit different than music.

 

Someday, if the opportunity presents itself, I'll take it and run. Until then...

Oh, no. You misunderstand me. I do group dance, and we do almost any kind of dance you can think of (that is in groups). African, Bollywood, classical jazz, modern, contemporary, adagio, hip-hop, and a little ballet, just to name a few.

The :/ face was because we are performing three dances, outside, when it was about 28F last year.

[Standard User 2,127]

I play alto saxophone (though if you can play one sax, you can play them all) and want to learn drums, bass, trumpet, and trombone (along with re-learning piano) so I can record some of my own jazz tunes in my free time. But I could never make it as a straight-up performer for my entire life.

 

If becoming an author counts as "performing", then that IS one possibly career path I was looking at.

[Nothing&NoOne 695]

Not for a living, but I was in Musical Theatre for a couple years. Singing, dancing, acting, all that jazz.

Not very impressive, but.. XD

28F

 

WHY?!? Please tell me that you were at least in long sweats and a coat or something...I sometimes run outside in freezing weather with just a T-shirt and shorts on, but that's on my own volition.

[miygaiya 138]

Quite so, actually.

 

I would love to be a performing musician in a symphony on the tuba, but I also want to work on electronic music as a living because it's easier to make money and get in on.

 

But I wouldn't mind working retail through college. It'd probably be better for me c:

-2 C is cold?? Where are you from?? I am so confused about this right now since it's like minus 14 C and kids are still wearing tee-shirts lol :3

I'm not really a performer, but I do caricatures of people at our local farmers market every now and again :3

Does that count?

Ahh, my good sir. I live in Idaho. We have a temp range from about 0F-110F. It's kinda crazy, but you get used to it. As to what we were wearing, I was wearing jeans, long sleeve under armor (that kinda made it colder though), and a t-shirt. And of course, skate shoes with no-show socks. It kinda sucked.

[Fridge 382]

The closest I come to performing is when I get invited to do circus skills at festivals. They're never paid but entry is free, I get free food and drink so I can't complain. But its more a hobby with benifits than a profession.

Oh, same here. I rarely wear anything but. The only thing was that it went from about 72F to 25F in a few days. Kinda puts your body into shock. Plus I'm the only guy in the dance group, so all the girls were complaining.

Ah lol, that makes more sense :3 I hate when its all nice out one day and then freezing the next Happens WAY too much around where I live....

[Reversalx 129]

hmm performance... not somthing id aim for, but would take the opportunity to if it presents itself. Ive performed in a couple of talent shows and charity shows, playing my guitar, or playing with friends in a band. Played songs from classical(solo guitar) to metalcore, when with band . stage freight always gets me though http://mlpforums.com/public/style_emoticons/default/dry.png

What kind of circus stuff did you do ?

I always love finding someone else who is into circus type things.

Also, Where did you do this ? I have never really performed in any festivals but I always loved the idea.

I do contact staff (fire as well), devil sticks (also with fire), fire breathing, some juggling and contact juggling. I'm saving up for a pair of power striders so I can start doing flips etc.

 

Well festivals come find me. I got a bit lucky at a little one I was just bumbling around at and bumped a events organizer. We became good friends and she went up in the world. Now I get invited to festivals like Glastonbury, Womad etc.

Thats epic, I have recently started getting into staff spinning (Contact staff looks to confusing for me... I CANT SPIN IT ) and know a little contact juggling.

I do fire poi, fire rope dart, juggling, and I know one or two tricks with the diabolo. And I know how to juggling clubs but I dont know any tricks... all I can do is throw them and hit myself on the head

I have always wanted to get a pair of Powerstriders They look so awesome

They truly are a mate of mines got some and he outruns cars with them.

 

See, you've gone the opposite route to me. I can't poi to save my life, and while I like staff spinning I feel like I have no control, which is weird when you think about what you do in contact staff. Ah the diablo, it looks like so much fun but I've never tried it.

I would love to make a living out of making music, but I'm not that skilled and it probably will never happen as I aim to do something in the gaming business, or at least in the IT. If I were able to I would be a solo artist that mixes all kinds of styles. I love extreme metal and many electronic genres and I haven't heard many songs that mix both of the genres, I would love to do that, just experimenting with different sounds and genres. That would be really awesome. But I'm not that musical, I just know music theory and I'm able to copy pretty much everything on an instrument if I am given enough time, that's about it, I don't have any creativity at all.

[Retro*Derpy 3,117]

Though I deeply love music, I don't see myself making a career out of it. I do though, take a high school class call "stage crafts" where me and a few other students help design and build the set for our schools theater. It is a pretty fun class.

[Flicker Sweet 3,391]

some day I'll be in a band/orchestra or both if I'm really lucky now.

music if everything to me, if I ever need to feel something, I always know what songs to listen to, hopefully someday I'll be able to extend that to other people by playing it on my bass

[Sks_Burns 730]

im a high performance pony, turbo whine and bald tires in a cloud of smoke and black marks on pavement. well... thats how it looks in my mind. im sure thats not what the OP had in mind, but its still a type of performance lol.

[Hansel 1,511]

When it comes to art/entertainment, I'm more of a "behind the scenes" person... if that makes sense. :3

 

Although I am a professional model part time... usually in front of camera, so I'm not sure if that really counts, but I did do a small fashion show once as well.

You and me both. Music has been a passion of mine for a very long time now... I don't see it ever going anywhere.

 

I blame reality. e_e
