SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums.ABOUT
I am 47, and want to play in a band again. Its been many years since I've played in one, and I miss it. I am a Rhythm guitar player, I can hold my own, and want to have some fun. I am willing to gig, but, just playing music in the basement is fine by me as well. Since its been quite a while since I've played in a band, I wouldn't mind a cover band either. Originals or a mix of covers and originals is also good!
Also, I can play Bass .. not my 1st choice, but I can hold my own. I have an Ibanez Bass .. Galloen Krugger head with GK cab..
A little more .. I am a graduate of Trebas Institute of Recording Arts, majoring in Sound Engineering. I also took music management and production, Music Business Management and Film & Television Production.
But, when it all boils down to it, all I wanna do is play some music, mabee play some gigs! If you want a metal rythm guitar player or a metal bass player, and you are in Calgary, let me know!!
