Bassist and drummer with a decent amount of experience have been forced to come out of retirement as they are broke. Getting gigs will not be a problem and everyone should get around a hundred euro a night. Probably looking at somewhere between 4 and 8 gigs a month. we'll work gigs to suit everyone. We're either laid back…

Getting gigs will not be a problem and everyone should get around a hundred euro a night. Probably looking at somewhere between 4 and 8 gigs a month. we'll work gigs to suit everyone. We're either laid back or lazy - I dont know which.

We plan to be a cheap, 300 quid a gig covers band that probably will do late 70's/early 80's covers with probably a smattering of the 90s in there too. Maybe something from this century as well. Material we will not cover includes Oasis and stuff we will do only because the drummer, god help him likes them, is U2. He sings so I let him off with it.

Anyway - the guitarist we need should prefably have equipment and transport - unless he or she lives in carlow (in reference to the transport). we have a van, PA and somewhere to rehearse BUT - we need someone who can learn by ear from CD as we tend not to rehearse that much - we get the set together within a month and then only rehearse when we add new songs.

If you can play guitar decently and you can do the above, then thats all the experience we need. We'd like to be gigging by Feb so if you are interested, let me know by PM on in this thread. If you know someone who might fit the bill, please send them this way.

thanks

ps - if on the other hand you're a guitarist who sings and is into non-metal and not grungy but still good ****off distortion with nice riffs original type music (and not confined to just that) then let me know as well. i could have a job for you.
