Looking for Bass Player

Seany

Hi all,

Existing 3 piece up and running a couple of years looking for bass player or guitarist that fancies a change to bass. At the moment we are sharing bass duties but this is proving a little awkward.

Influences are include:

Beatles, The Who, The Smiths, Oasis, OCS, The Jam, Metallica, U2, Morrissey to name a few..

Album recorded and at mixing stage. Own rehearsal place in Rush, North County Dublin. All 27yrs old.

Looking to rehearse at least once a week and gig once/ twice a month. Promotion of album and tour in plans for future.

Cheers,
Seany

Thanks Bassfred, I have sent you an email.

Anyone else interested please let me know and we can set up a jam together.

Also, again might suit guitarist looking for change (we have backline and guitars).

Cheers,
Seany

Yeah, because any guitar player can just pick up a bass and play it. Sure isn't is nearly the same except easier? :rolleyes:
Good luck with your band - your expectations are clearly high...

Seany

Now what what the point in that comment?? Clearly you have little else to do.

Never said bass was easier actually and I am not getting into that debate with you either.

I actually know two bass players now playing in bands who originally started on guitar and changed over as they preferred the four string approach...but jesus they must be the only two in the world. :rolleyes:

Thanks for your concern..now please piss off

Hey Seany....
Before I even start this post... I don't mean to offend ya in any way or start an argumentment and if it wasn't for the comments ya posted today in reply to Ric (even though I thought ya we're bein a little hard him cause I did agree with him, just not how he said it) I wouldn't have posted this....
I started on guitar, switched to bass but it took me the last 8 years to get any good at it... so if ya don't find the guy ur lookin for from your add, PLEASE repost it and ask for a BASS PLAYER!!!!.... cause most would be insulted by ur original post.....

Have I wound ya up yet??? ...if not, send me a link to ur material, I'd like to check it out...
Cheers

Thanks for the comment Genyr.

Original post didn't mean to offend anyone (sorry if it came across that way). I am aware that not every guitarist can play bass. I have been playing both guitar and bass in band myself for the past 3/4 years and can personally vouch that they are a very different animal!

My preference is the guitar if singing and bass if not (i know that sounds weird) but its almost like a different mindset when I pick up the bass and listen to the song.

This band is as much a studio band as live one and if a guitarist has certain ideas about a bassline or vice versa, i think it makes the process all the more interesting (thats probably what I meant originally).

End of the day we are three easy going chaps who like writing and rehearsing, recording music and playing gigs and looking for someone with a similar mindset to concentrate on bass duties.

Hi,
I know its a bit late if you're still looking for a bass player I would definintely be interested. I've own gear and transport and though I'm southside I'm willing to travel for the right band. Really like what you're playing too. My influences are Hendrix, Cream, Who and mainly classic rock, well I'm 29 so there wont be much Emo stuff in the cd collection There's no panic if you have your bass player sorted but if you don't or it falls through give me a shout.
Liamo.
