6 Minute English / Becoming a musician

Note: This is not a word-for-word transcript.

Hello, this is 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English. I m Pippa.

And I m Neil.

Now, Neil, have you ever wanted to be a musician?

Oh yes, Pippa, I still want to be a musician. I've been playing my guitar since I was 14.

Wow. Well, maybe one day you'll, you'll manage it. Who knows?

What about you?

I don't think I'd like to be a musician. I think it would be a bit stressful. Especially if you had lots of fans and were really successful.

Yeah. I wonder what life as a musician is actually like? We ll be finding that out in this programme as we hear from some people around the UK who would like to become successful musicians, and we ll even listen to some of their music too.

But first, I have a question for you, Neil.
