Please read.
FAQs-
Why are you not gigging?- We all work full time and at first approached this as some fun and stress relief. Also we weren’t very good. We have improved almost to the standard that drunk people may not mind us but gigging is still a good bit away.
I have original material, want to go out and gig?- No, thanks anyway. At the moment that just isn’t us.
Yeah, I’m interested but really looking for a gigging band?- Every ad has stated we are not a gigging band.
Have you got recordings?- No sorry we haven’t. As said we play just for fun.
What sort of standard are you?- I would say intermediate if I’m being honest. We play the song and it pretty much sounds how it should. We are not musical geniuses.
I don’t live in Bangor and have no transport, will you live practices somewhere else?- No. We are all generally local to Bangor and it suits us. So preferably local or reasonable distance. You have to be close enough that you don’t mind traveling to practice once a week.
I can’t commit to anything and am on the look out for a gigging band/getting my own thing up and running but I’ll come for a while?- No sorry. We’ve had a couple of really great guys come and help for a while which we greatly appreciated but, when their own thing took over we are back to square one and me typing these ads. We are looking for someone who is interested in sticking it out.
So those are some of the questions we’ve gotten.
Currently the band consists of-
2 guitars
Bass
Drums
Piano
Female Vocalist
We don’t have a genre just stuff we like and if it is in our range.
The Police, CCR, The Raconteurs, Neil Young, Otis Redding, Bob Dylan, Chuck Berry, The Blues Brothers, Muddy Waters, Little Walter, B.B. King, Ray Charles, Van Morrison, Status Quo, Leonard Cohen, Eric Clapton, Cream and others.
We are looking for someone who is into and can sing numbers by The Rolling Stones and possibly Fleetwood Mac. Being able to play Blues harp is a big plus but not essential.
If after reading all this your still interested and not completely put off please drop me a pm with your name and number and a good time to call for a chat. I prefer to talk to people. We will try and set up a Jam and see how it goes. Please don’t sent one line messages with no info.
Preferably over 30 but if under and interested drop me a line and we can chat about it. Large age range in the band so we are open to most really. No one is too old.
