Covers Band

Roland TD20 · 23-10-2010 2:57pm #1

Drummer looking to put together a Strong covers band to gig and make some money. Idealy I would like to hear form committed musicians with the right attitude living in the Meath or North dublin area, or willing to rehearse in the north Dublin area or meath area. A guitarist, Bass and Keyboard player and most importantly a Front man or Woman with the ability to wow the crowd with their voice as well as stage presence. As for music, i will give anything a try once its what the punters will want to hear and it can be delivered at the highest level.

Interested,

Give me a shout...

Have you any basic idea of what music you would like to play ? What artists/bands would you personally like to cover ? What "the punters want to hear" depends on a lot of things like age etc.

Agree. Sorta aggressive for a simple question. Chill out, we all play music for free drinks at the end of the day

The reason I asked the question is simple. For example, some punters are pleased by Irish c/w, ( :rolleyes: ), other punters are pleased by metal, some by indie, others by pop etc.

People may not want to be in these type of bands, so it saves time to give a person even a rough idea of the type of band he/she is going to be in.

Roland TD20 please don't bring a negative attitude into your thread, it reflects badly on you as a poster. What Rigsby asked was perfectly reasonable. A covers band isn't going to play the same stuff if they are playing at a youth club or an OAP bingo night so it's no harm to try and clarify to a certain extent what you are looking to play. It's like when someone is asked what kind of music they like. Responding with "Everything", which a lot of people will do, is useless because it's not true and too vague.
