Do you want to play some bitchin' music?
Do you want to explore yourself musically?
Do you want to dress like a pirate and thrust your crotch to the crowd?
Then this ad is for you.
We're a newly formed group consisting of a drummer and guitarist (both of 10 years+ experience) with influences from Motley Crue, Ratt, Steel Panther, Kiss, Def Leopard and more.
We want to turn these influences into a unique idea: Pirate themed hair metal. Think Steel Panther of the Sea. Hunting for booty, releasing captured seamen, the possibilities are endless. It's going to tight, aggressive, and full of toxic masculinity/femininity (depending on the bits between your legs)
Clearly, we don't take ourselves too seriously and nor should you. We're looking for people who are laid back, can take AND give criticism, and enjoys playing music. These points are first and foremost. W*nkers will be cast adrift. (read no drama queens or cry babies).
Second is musical ability: You must be able to play to a reasonable standard. We can work with you to bring you up to scratch but we cannot train you from fresh. If you have the right attitude we'll get on fine.
Finally Stage Presence: Again we'll happily bring you up to standard if required (maybe you can show us a thing or two?). We want to entertain and so you must be entertaining. A few flashy moves is all you'll need just so long as you're not going to stand and stare at the floor.
We're currently working on songs and these are in the seminal stages which means you'll be able to have true creative input if you want it.
We want to gig and have fun as soon as possible. We hope the quality of the music and shows will bring fame and fortune however we're not too bothered by it because we've both been there and done that (to a small degree).
Required commitment in once every 2 weeks which is likely to become once a week.
Any questions, feel free to message me.
Songs required (pick 3):These do not need to be perfect because frankly there are some tough ones in the bunch but they highlight some key skills and techniques which we'd like people to have before coming in.
Kickstart My Heart - Motley Crue, Gloryhole - Steel Panther, Lovin' You is a Dirty Job - RATT, Detroit Rock City - Kiss, Roses for the Dead - Funeral For a Friend, Find the Real - Alter Bridge
