There are 2 major reasons why you should not do this.

1 - You ever work in a call center? It'll be the best kind of job you can get if you skip college. Consider how much legwork you had to put in just to get lined up for college this time around. Now consider doing it again while working a job without the extra help from a guidance counselor or other HS resource.

2 - College is awesome. Seriously. Yes it will suck for your band but you can still get together and play during summer break. On the other hand you'll have a chance to make LOTS of new contacts while in college and opportunities to play with a lot more people. You'll also have the benefit of being 'that guy' who's actually already been in a studio and made a proper recording.
