Dublin Bassist ready to Rock! or at least Punk Rock!

Slappa de Bass

Recently single (bandwise), Dublin based bassist available for band, (say that fast when your pissed).

Will play all styles as long as the songs comform to the big four: Short, Catchy, Simple and Fast. So punkish type of stuff is what I'm saying. (Saying conform and Punk in the same sentence sounds wrong doesn't it?) *Also, no cover bands. Not interested in playing solely for money. It's not my bag.

Ah well.

I've recenly come out of a band/project and don't want to be waiting around too long, want to just jump right in and keep going. My style is comparable, but not limited, to the styles of Mike Dirnt (greenday) and Mark Hoppus (Blink 182). If this is what you are looking for then give me a shout.

As I've said, as long it's short, simple, fast and catchy then i'm in, so you can imagine i'm not up for super-progessive, space-age, electro-folk. Although that does sound kinda cool.

I'm 28, and although I am by no means 'defeated', I'm not interested in a band that is chasing record deals. I wouldn't mind if one came along, I'm just not up for acting the tool. I would like a band that jams once/twice a week and gigs regularily, records whenever possible and most importanly has fun along the way.

I tend to come up with a lot of riffs and songs so I'd be suited more to a band that is looking for a song-writer or at the very least, is willing to share composing duties. I've been in too many 'one way' bands and they are not very fun and the band always end up either breaking up or becoming Razorlight. Both scenarious are not very pleasant experiences.

Anyway, I'm long past the point of rambling so I'll leave it at that. If you're interested or just generally wanna have a chat (keep it polite), hit me up and we'll get the ball rolling.

Alright Al,
My name is Marc, I'm a 31 yr old singer from Dublin. My band are looking for a bass player at the moment I'm not sure if we'd suit you exactly because we sound more like Kings of Leon than Green Day, but we've got some punk tunes and we're open to playing most styles( except for pan-pipe chillout and deathcore metal). We have an album recorded and ready for self release and promotion, we meet one a week to rehearse, write and record new material. Our goal would be to gig about every 2 weeks, a new album released on Itunes every year and festivals in the summer. a sample of our music can be found here http://soundcloud.com/keepersofdoubt/blackout-preview#new-timed-comment-at-36640
If your interested reply back to me or through our facebook page here

Hello

My name is Ciaran and I play in an originals alternative acoustic/rock band called JUPITER FOREST and we are currently looking for a bass player.
We are based in South Dublin and usually rehearse in a studio called Unit 1 in Donore Avenue - just off South Circular Road: http://www.unit-1.ie/

Here is a link to our website: http://jupiterforest.com/music-of-jupiter-forest/
There you will find some of our songs. The most recent recordings: World Between Us, November Sky and Flight Of The Sparrow are more what our sound is at right now but we do like to rock it up a bit as well.
We are also planning to put some synth on to one or two of our tracks.
We have loads of really good songs written and gigs planned but just need a bassist before we commit to any dates.

Have a listen to our music and if you like what you hear and are still looking for a band give me a shout: ciaranoneill2005@yahoo.ie

Thanks
