Looking for musicians

[sgmypod]

Looked at both..well other guitarist did..and might a a hopeful...got to love marillion as well(gonna get shot down for this but love the Brave album)

[Gary]

Been through 3 guitarists and 2 singers in the last two years. Posted virtually everywhere but got the best results from Partysounds and Gumtree although with Gumtree you may find some of the auditions quite amusing.

[sgmypod]

found some fun auditions online....

[Jamie]

yeah finding that as well in Hull....unless I wanna join either a metal, Artic flunkies wannabe or something where I need hair styled within an inch of it's life(lostprofits, 30 seconds from mars etc)

Im from hull as well, where abouts in hull do you live? Hull has a shiiite music scene.

[sgmypod]

What do you play..guess guitar if your on here

Good guess  :D The bad thing about Hull is the bad music scene and the bad music shops.

[sgmypod]

Oh yeah am east Hull....yeah at least with Soundcontrol..was a bit of competition....mainly go to Doncaster, Halifax, Sheffield..even Leeds to find a good shop

[horsehead]

& so the Hull invasion continues....WE ARE HULL!

So far I've found gumtree to be the best, put an ad on there a week or so ago and allready had about 5 responses from people at my uni who want to get a band going or to add another guitarist.

Sadly none of it is really music I'm into, apart from an acoustic singer songwriter guy who wants a 2nd guitarist to fill out the sound a bit and play leads so I might give that a go if he's a good singer.

You never know, could be the start of a whole new direction for you.  I can picture the scene, 20 years down the line:

I hope I'm not that grey by the time I'm 40 :lol:

I actually quite like acoustic stuff I'm just not very good at it and my acoustics a bit cheap sounding. Definitely going to go and have a jam with him, if he has a good voice it'll be good and easy money if we do covers in pubs etc. Plus it seems women prefer acousticcy stuff so it'll be good for that as well :P

Ah your from the better part as well. Bad Dog isnt too bad apart from the lack of selection but they gave me a good price on my Jackson so i will let them off.

The thing that i found when looking to join a band is that no one seemed to be at the level of playing that i was at, and some bands seem to be up their own arses because they think they are a lot better than they actually are.

[sgmypod]

Yeah am in a band at mo was hard to find people similar level, likes and non head up arse-ness
