If you are determined enough you shouldn't let other people's opinions stop you from doing what you enjoy. This includes your parent's opinions. I recommend doing something you love even if you make just enough to keep you from starving instead of doing something you hate just because it pays well. But make sure you really love it first. Chances are you'll enjoy it less than you imagine (but maybe still enjoy it enough to justify leaving your job). The guys on the stage look like they're having a lot of fun, but maybe they only do so because it's their job to look like they're having fun. After a while a job is a job and it can start to suck simply because you HAVE to do it. Maybe you can try out your artistic side in your spare time for a while and see how you really feel about it.
