    We're based in the South East area. Must have gigging experience and have played for a good while. Own transport needed. Must be available to gig and practice ANYTIME. Own kit needed. We gig all over the country so you must be willing to travel. Must be willing to play any music, we've had drummers before refuse to learn certain tunes just because they didnt like them or thought them to be "mainstream dirt", this is a covers band after all and we cater for everyone, so leave the ego at the door.
    Bit about us... We have a full pro setup, lights etc. Setlist wise its the normally run of the mill, rock and pop, modern and classics, tho we try to add a few quarky ones. Have gigged lots and have lots of experience. Very busy calender coming up. You will be paid for all gigs, bar the odd Charity gig. Any further question please ask!!

    Peace!

    Hi lads, currently playing with a reasonably high profile covers band round the country, based in the south east also. I won't mention the band here, it's a small country! Over 10 years experience on the scene. I'm a percussion (and guitar) teacher also at a private academy so I can play and read just about any style. Click tracks and electronics are no problem either if that's something you guys dabble with.

    Anyway, having the same trouble with my current band, personal taste getting in the way of progress, well amongst other differences (which I'm no part of by the way, I'm too easy going!) Ye sound like ye have your heads firmly screwed on, PM me for my number if you want to chat.
