Band to Join.ABOUT
Been out of the game for about a year and a half after a disastrous experience with my prior band but that itch needs to be scratched again. Hopefully this time round it will be a permanent deal.
I've been playing bass for about 17 years on and off, I'm looking for a proper rock band, think somewhere along the lines of zeppelin, redfang, graveyard, that sort of thing. Basically facemelting riffs are a good place to start.
Looking for a band that are serious about what they want but not so serious in how they get it. I've always believed that to stand out from the crowd, you need to put on a show, we're entertainers at the end of the day so.....entertain! Been in too many bands that are afraid to step off the beaten track when it comes to live shows. Every other band playing in pubs across the land are playing their songs note for note, I want a band that enjoys making each show unique, that isn't afraid of screwing up, basically fearlessness is a pre-requisite for any band I would be interested in.
Also you need to have some demo material I can listen to before meeting up, travel in London is expensive and I'm not gonna trek to wherever you are without knowing if you have the goods.
