I would either like to start or join an indie rock band or even just make some music with somebody with similar interests! I'm 29 and have been playing guitar for 17 years. I'd say I'm preeeeeeetty decent....I can play most things you can throw at me. I'm currently playing in another band, but its more of a jam band kinda thing whereas I also wanna do something more structured!
Influences/music i like listening to includes (*takes deep breath) Weezer, Pavement, Deerhunter, sonic youth, David Bowie, beach boys, the unicorns, the replacements, the pixies, neutral milk hotel, lou reed/VU, kleenex girl wonder, guided by voices, Grandaddy, QOTSA, Elliot Smith, Talking heads, Beach house, Ween, car seat headrest, Big Star......amongst others.
I do think influences are important, we don't have to have exactly the same taste but put it this way, if you want to make music along the lines of kings of leon, the killers, Kasabian etc. then more power to you but that's just not what I'm into! Yep,If it's a crime not to like those bands then lock me up sir! Well I'd probably bust out with some badass 007 moves but the principle still stands! Apparently beggars CAN be choosers!
So yeah, guitarists, bassists and drummers hit me up....or just ignore this ad and LEAVE ME TO ROT DAMN YOUUUUUUUUUU!!!! Singers too i guess, but only if you play an instrument too sorry to be prejudice like maybe you have no hands and it's not an option but sorry that's the law of the jungle baby that's how we roll!
I'll say some other stuff about myself here in case somebody responds and we meet up and their like 'did you watch the match?' and I will say '....nope.....nice weather were having today....'.'
I'm into comedy, particularly left field American stuff these days like 'delocated', 'on cinema at the cinema', comedy bang bang, 'nathan for you'. Also love Vic and Bob, Alan Patridge and Limmy! I like video games too and have probably spent half my life span playing something while all my friends wasted their lives getting girlfriends and good jobs, the idiots ha ha!
