Contemplating starting a new band within county kerry , cork , limerick area

matt86ie

Right now I'm a one-man band with backing tracks , play rhythm guitar and sing everything from Neil diamond to Joe dolan Bruce Springsteen , dire straits,
To Nathan Carter , country & Irish , party ,
I did the wedding circuit with my own 4 piece band for the last 20years ,
Right now I'm in a dilemma ,
To join a band , stay at one-man , or get back on scene with a right good showband ,
But it will take a lot of hard work and commitment and help from all members to put this right , not just lay it all on one shoulder ,
I know many of you will say , no work no play ,
But there has got to be someone out in the music world that is genuinely interested to put a good show on the road and then play a few showcase gigs and lead once again to bringing in the work , it all has to start somewhere ...

To be honest and totally honest with you , I would love to put a right good small 3 or 4 piece band back on the road , but nowadays it's not an easy task to achieve , as I stated on my opening post , you need full commitment and help , and it's like starting out from scratch again , I'm based in killarney Kerry , where are you based , and give me a bit of history and your views on this .. mattie

Guitar players. It's always loads of guitar players that answer these ads. Never drummers, or keys players. I'm saying this is a guitar player too from Kerry. Another ad, the same old story.

We actually need a bass player as I play rhythm guitar but I could switch to bass, its rocking country.
