    Hey guy,
    A few friends and I have started a band, we're all1st years in Dublin City University. So far we have a drummer, lead guitarist and rythm guitar and we're looking for a bassist and a pianist or violinist.

    Are influence include(but we're up for getting new influences :D ):
    Bob Dylan
    Neil Young
    Dire Straits
    Eric Clapton
    Josh Ritter
    The Frames
    Jimi Hendrix
    Pink Floyd
    The Velvet Underground
    Leonard Cohen
    and more...

    So ya pretty varied influences, we havent really decided what we want to sound like but we're having fun jamming and stuff if anyone wants to join in!

    Thanks,
    Kev

    Serious reply here.

    I've been playing my fiddle for over 10 years now. I started off playing solo but did eventually get help from other people, have never played in a band before though, if that's a problem? I can play both slow and fast songs and do my best not to make a mess of them. I don't go to college any more in DCU which might put me out of a DCU band though, my apologies :(
