    Hey there people

    Ive posted many threads here in the last 12months or so looking for people in cork and the surrounding areas to start a band.
    Im 29 yrs old and am looking for serious people who love their music who are willing to invest their time and energy in getting a good band together.
    Unfortunately i havent any proper gigging experience even at my age:eek: but im a quick learner and am very enthusiastic.Im a bit of a late bloomer to be honest and its only in the last few years that ive improved as a musicians and feel i have the confidence now to be good enough to play in a band.
    Im into alot of different types of music,all types of rock/pop/metal/blues/jazz etc etc.Im not against writing or playing our own material but would prefer to play covers to begin with to gain a bit of experience.

    Ive been in contact with a few people here over the last 12months after putting up ads but nothing has ever come out of it properly.
    This last chance saloon people as im abit fed up with posting on this forum and will look else where if i have to so im putting this thread up as my last to see if i can meet up with a few like minded musicians to get a band together.
    Please get in touch if yer interested.

    Ideally looking for people with a positive attitude and who are commited to the cause.no time waisters need apply.

    cheers,
    Colin:)

    Alrite fella,
    Thanks for the reply.Ive no bother with your age as i met up with a guy before xmas who answered my ad here who was 43.Theres too many young people here who are unreliable so id prefer to play with people my own age or older.
    Id be up for meeting for achat/jam some evening when your free.im living in douglas myself.
    I do a bit of singing myself but am mainly a guitar player.Im into alot of different types of music and play both acoustic &electric.
    If you want to email me at [EMAIL="colinmullin@hotmail.com'"]colinmullin@hotmail.com'[/EMAIL]

    cheers,
    Colin

    Hey Colin. Sorry I haven't been on to you in the last few weeks. I've been on work experience for college and busy in general. Things are starting to calm down a bit though so if you're up for a chat about some potential musical shenanigans that'd be good!

    Thanks for the reply mate but your prob a bit too young for this project.it would better to get something together and start jamming with someone your own age.

    Best of luck though.
