SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Other, Mandolin, Fiddle.ABOUT
I am looking to play with a group who are easy going (with a desire to work hard and get better, but not to be stupid crazy about it either), interested in having fun, wanting to do original stuff (though some covers are also cool), and wanting to do live gigs (paid or unpaid, I could care less... I just wanna play live!) and some recording.
I have no interest in being around a group involved with drugs in any way, shape or form, or being around any a**holes who can't relax, enjoy the music and have some laughs
My interests are rock(classic and modern), alternative, indie, Irish folk and "roughed up folk" music, as I like to call it. I'm not interested in any thrash metal or anything of the sort.
I have played with garage bands and serious bands. I have played live, recorded and created drum licks for original tunes.
I have several videos uploaded on YouTube (a very, very small sample of my work), should you wish to check them out and determine if I am what you want in your established or new band. The website for my YouTube channel is (copy and paste this in your brower's address space):

I also am drumming on an original song; the song is by STATIC TONES, an Ottawa-based band I'm playing with. You can hear the song on this page, or on the band MySpace page at:

Let's get together, have a coffee or a beer, shoot the sh*t and see if we can't work something out.
