Yeah, I know what you mean. The last time I played with a group of musos was a cr@p ABBA tribute band a few years back.

AND I HATE ABBA!!!

I'm thinking that a Black Sabbath tribute band might be cool. We'll call ourselves "Slack Blabbath".

Notice that Black sABBAth already has the name ABBA in it!

Gosh... never spotted that. Maybe, despite the long hair and leather/denim garb of my past, I AM actually an ABBA fan, not a Sabbath devotee???

So, Slack Babbath is taken... mines subtly different. Blabbath. Not Babbath. It's a very important difference.

Please don't shatter my dreams...

On a serious note, has anyone used http://bandmix.co.uk/? I've got a profile up there, and it's a good way of browsing musios in your area. Still a struggle to find the time though... and I haven't played SERIOUSLY with any other musicians for years...

Mark.

I've used it and to be honest I didn't like it as they make you pay for anything that would help you find anyone. They also send me emails about totally inappropriate bands and musicians for me to be with

.
I'd recommend http://www.partysounds.co.uk as they are free and you can generally get a response.
http://www.musofinder.co.uk is also OK but they want you to pay for it.

Partysounds is certainly the best one for the Manchester area...

Another vote for Partysounds. Does the business down south too.

A big attraction of the site is that it's free.
