Talk to your music teachers at school about opportunities in music. Try to attend as many musical performances as possible; they don't all have to be in the pop/rock genre. Many clubs and other concert facilities offer all-ages shows where you can see musical artists perform firsthand. Depending on the size of the venue, you may have a chance to approach a musician after the show to ask a few questions about the field. You can learn more about the field by visiting the Web sites of the musicians you enjoy and admire most.
