    Howdy',

    We're looking to start up a Hardcore band. So far, we have a vocalist and a drummer - we're looking for a bass player and a guitarist.

    Influences include:

    Suicidal Tendencies
    Sick of it All
    Agnostic Front
    Madball

    Drop me a PM if you're interested. Must be 18+

    Cheers,

    Baggio.

    Hey Sean,

    I've been lurking for quite sometime - waiting to pick right moment :). To be honest looks like the drummer section has been filled. So I'll have to pass, can't see it working with two drummers. But I hope you find someone....Not enough decent punk bands in Dublin.

    AlcoholicA,
    Looks like we'll be based in Dublin (even though I live in Kildare).
    “bassist/guitarist/vocalist “ - sweet...What stuff you into?

    Cheers guys,

    Baggio...

    I like a lot of hardcore like Madball, Sick of It All, Cro-mags, Terror, Agnostic Front...

    So I'd be more for the hardcore side


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 647 ✭✭✭My name is Mud


    Lads, im the same drummer that your talking about above! I PM'd Sean today abput the other punk band thread

    Its a possibility then...

    Me on drums
    Baggio (Rob) on vox
    Alcoholica on guitar?
    and Sean7 on guitar?
    Joe Robot on bass?
    (from the Athiest Punk Band thread)

    Who fancy's a jam then????


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 647 ✭✭✭My name is Mud


    PS. Baggio (Mark), Yeah I thought Baggio (Rob) was you at first, but figured it our from his posts!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,085 ✭✭✭Baggio...


    PS. Baggio (Mark), Yeah I thought Baggio (Rob) was you at first, but figured it our from his posts!

    Hah! there appears to be two of us. I'm actually "Baggio...". He's "Baggio" The fake!;) Line up sounds good, think Sean has a band though.

    Later,

    Robert.

    Same here... virtually the same influences as myself:D .
    You interested? If so, what position?

    Later,

    Robert.

    what position u want?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 634 ✭✭✭Sean7


    Well at first I might jam with both bands and see which I fit in with better if that's cool. Since the bands already share a drummer and possibly a bass player I think if I understand Mud's suggestion correctly, though Joe hasn't said anything yet on this thread, it shouldn't be too big a deal.

    EDIT: although I just remembered Baggio(one of them) said there was already a drummer lined up so I don't know who's doing what to be honest. Perhaps the OP could clear up exactly what musicians he still needs?

    Vocalist...Can't do anything else.

    Rob.

    Depends on your influences I guess. Were leaning towards Hardcore (Old school). The other band seems to be more punk - as in surf. Depends which u prefer.


    Hmm... I've amended the title of the thread from Hardcore/Punk to just "Hardcore". I don't want to cause any more confusion with our atheist punk friends.

    Cheers,

    Rob.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,006 ✭✭✭Baggio


    I dunno...everyone knows Im the real one,,,where'd this copycat come from?

    and Im a great striker of the ball too...so I MUST be the real one....!

    ciao' amigos...Baggio...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,085 ✭✭✭Baggio...


    Okay... You're the real one.... I'm a copy. Only fair - as you were here first:o

    Cheers,

    Robert.

    PS - too late to change it now....

    Well, unless you suscribe. Seemingly you can get a name change done then...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 647 ✭✭✭My name is Mud


    Ok Lads, enough pussy-footing around this

    I am a drummer looking to do hardcore stuff, and Baggio(...) is a vocalist looking to do hardcore stuff. This is the driving force behing this thread.

    Now, I replyed to the Athiest Punk thread which now is not strictly an "Athiest Punk" band thing. If anybody from there is interested in doing guitars or bass, post/PM/email, whatever.

    Anybody else interested in doing hardcore, let us know.

    Right now, its me on the drums, and Baggio(...) on vox

    Cheers,

    Dave


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 634 ✭✭✭Sean7


    What happpened to the drummer baggio was talking about?

    Anyway if it's cool to be in both bands Count me in for guitar or bass which we can't get people for.

    EDIT: Sending PM to Baggio... now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 647 ✭✭✭My name is Mud


    Sean7 wrote:

    I am that same guy.

    Enough with the 2 bands. There only appears to be enough members for one hardcore band (from the replys).

    So, in summary

    Baggio (...) on Vox
    My name is Mud on Drums
    ??? on Bass
    ??? on Guitar

    Sean7 you want in for guitar or bass?

    Its gonna be Suicidal/Refused/Fugazi/Helmet styley

    Well that clears things up I though there were 2 drummers knocking about on this whole thing. In that case I guess I could take guitar and offer bass to joe robot ? How's that sound ?

    Sounds good! I 'aint heard back from AlcoholicA, so not sure if he's still interested.

    So the line up so far is:
    3 defs.
    Baggio - Vox
    Mud - Drums
    Sean 7 - Guitar

    2 maybes.
    AlcoholicA - Bass/Guitar/Backing Vox???
    Joe Robot - Bass????

    C'mon lads,

    I have a pseudo- practice space of my own (i.e. my house), with a PA.

    All we need is to get together and jam...the time is right for rockin'

    Dave


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    yeah sure, i'm up for it. seems like a good idea!:D

    i'm in raheny on the northside at the mo, but i'm moving to walkinstown in about a month. i think we should all arrange to meet up before we have a jam, like a week or two before. just for a few drinks or something.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 634 ✭✭✭Sean7


    I'm in the city centre, about 5mins from O'Connel St.

    Yeah, not a bad idea, get to know each other a bit and plan out a few songs to start practicing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    yeah exactly :) :cool:

    Well Lads, im in Templeogue, off the N81 right near the M fiddy, and thats where my drums & PA are too!

    Whens everybody free for a pint?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    ehh next time i'm free is sunday?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 647 ✭✭✭My name is Mud


    thats good for me. Lads?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    ehh mud? you're not far from where i'm moving to. i'm moving to walkinstown at the end of next month. so that'd be handy.:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,085 ✭✭✭Baggio...


    Howdy',

    Count me in for Sunday....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    so its just sean we're waiting on then is it?

    what about that other guitarist or are we ok with one for the mo?:)


  • Advertisement
  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 634 ✭✭✭Sean7


    Hopefully I'll be bringing my guitar and I assume now my amp up on friday. I'll be in kilkenny saturday but I should be back up for sunday evening if that's when we're meeting up.

    Where do ye want to meet?

    EDIT: Maybe we should PM Alocholica and Waitingforblogo now too see if either of them want in. My style of guitar playing is mainly rthym/riffs which is pretty much all hardcore requires so I think I could cope on my own if necessary but I wouldn't mind another guitarist at all


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    ehhh what time will ya be back at sean? i'd say eamonn dorans would be the best bet. pretty central place? plus they sell pizza thats nice! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 634 ✭✭✭Sean7


    ...and rip you off affter 11pm.

    I'll hopefully be back pretty early so shouldn't be much bother.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    yeah i was thinkin early evenin'

    yeh i know its a rip off after 11, ****in bollox. :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 634 ✭✭✭Sean7


    Right well that should be fine. I pm'd Alcholica and Waitingforblogo to tell them a second guitar slot is open. I'm itching to get this started it's literally been years since I was in a band man.

    i havent been able to get any off of the ground, its the usual tryin to get a drummer is the hardest. any other ones i've jammed with were ****e pop/rock stuff that i just wasnt really interested in.

    I know the feeling. I just haven't had anyone to start a band with, that plus being in college and living between dublin and wexford. I'm hoping to get a new flat and to make it my definite "home". So hopefully this band will turn into something good, I'd really like to get something started.

    EDIT: See you all on Sunday, I'll post if either guitarist pm's me.

    As you said Drummers are really hard to find, so when I saw Mud - I jumped at the chance!

    I'm in work today so I wont be checking this til the afternoon.

    Later,

    R.

    PS - I'm happy with one guitarist -Sean's Riff style is perfect!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 647 ✭✭✭My name is Mud


    Hey guys,

    Well its a safe bet that im hardcore to the bone. I learnt to play from listening to Fyfe Ewing (think Teethgrinder by Therapy?).

    Sunday evening on Dorans suits me. What time for pizza and beer?

    Im also cool with one guitar, riffage is all thats needed. Joe Robot - you cool with bass?

    Dave


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    yeah no probs playing bass. ehh hows 5pm for everyone? will you be back by then sean?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 647 ✭✭✭My name is Mud


    5pm is good for me


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,638 ✭✭✭bombidol


    Still looking for another Guitarist for this?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 634 ✭✭✭Sean7

    Yeah man if you're into the idea come along to dorans and see if you like what you hear.

    EDIT: There were 2 guys interested in playing guitar before you but we've had no response from them. I think Alcholica definately is off the idea as he posted in another thread in this forum about 20 mins after I pm'd him about this thread which was up top of the forum at that time and the other guy has just not been heard from. So I don't think you have any competition.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,638 ✭✭✭bombidol


    well talk it over with the other lads, only thing is that im in another band. so i cant gaurantee that ill always be around cause we tour and gig a fair whack. So even if you are interested in taking someone on kinda part time for gigs/jams let me know.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 647 ✭✭✭My name is Mud


    Im easy either way mate.

    As its gonna be hardcore, I dont see much of a lead/rhythm guitar scenario. Possibly a "twin riff" scenario if theres 2 guitarists.

    Anyway, Joe Robot, Sean7 & Baggio (...) - you guys good for 5pm @ Dorans this Sunday? Bombidol, do pop along if your interested, well all have a chat and a beer
