Cover band in cork.anyone interested?

Sergio

Alright people,

this is my 3rd thread in the last 6months looking for other musicians in the cork based area to get a band together.
I know some people only want to do their own original stuff and i understand that.i would be open to writing our own stuff down the line but i would prefer to play covers at the start and to get some gigs to gain some experience.
Even though im 28yrs old i havent gigged properly before but want to change that now before i get too old:eek:
Im playing guitar since i was 15 and play both electric&acoustic.i have all my own gear and can do a bit of singing too.
Im into alot of the classic rock/metal stuff like metallica/GNR/VR/hendrix/clapton/thinlizzy/whitesnake etc etc.
I also love acoustic unplugged type stuff too from the likes of david gray,oasis,crowded house,u2 etc crowd pleasing stuff that would be nice for an intimate pub type uplugged gig.
I also into progressive rock metal stuff from the likes of Dreamtheater and love all the solo guitarist like satriani,paul gilbert&malmsteen.
Sorry for the long essay but im just trying to give people and idea of how open minded i am and just want to get out there and play.
im open to any ideas from interested parties so gimme a shout;)

cheers,

Colin

Potentially interested depending on material and position required. I play rhythm, but stretch to bass (though I don't have a gigging bass rig).

OK so i met another guitar player today and were pretty keen in getting something started.
i think a cool unplugged acoustic type 3 piece covers act which would work if the song were well rehearsed.
Im looking for someone in cork who would be our main vocalist who would be pretty open minded and up for a bit of fun and to start practicing and gigging ASAP.
MALE/FEMALE it doesnt matter so give me a shout if yer interested.

no time waisters please!

Jack Eaton

Alright fella,

Im fairly easy goin to be honest and wouldnt mind sharing lead and rhythm around between 2 guitar players.youll have to get yourself some wheels to carry your gear around for gigging and practicing etc
