I really cant recommend this site enough
http://www.joinmyband.co.uk/classifieds/index.php
Ive had 3 offers already this week from bands i'd like to join. My tastes aren't towards the usuall rock/blues types either.
They also have an american site.

Please dont view this post as spam though it does appear that way. I'm not affiliated with the site, just seeking to do someone a favour.

Nick.

If we as musicians can become part of a band/session work oreientated site it can only help us and others. We get so tied up in our desires for gear and the quest for perfect tone that we forget why were musicians. To play..... live. :D
I'm sure that in previous decades muso's had their priorities in better order than we have today.

It never rains but it pours.
Lastnight i was contacted through that site, by a wedding/function band wanting a guitarist for a gig tonight :shock: :shock: :shock: .
I've been up all night learning a 20 song setlist and am currently feeling :evil: .
Still its all good fun. I'm gonna get a few hours sleep then go and rock the joint.

Cool idea for a site. I'll have to check it out when I get home, seeing as my school blocks every freaking website nowadays.

Have a great time Niki! I've got confidence in your ability to learn 20 songs in one night. It would take me a lot longer. Learned them by yourself or with the band? Remember just have Fun my man! :wink:

It went well Fhop. I had em down at their recorded pitch to find that the band plays them in their own keys. I hung around behind the keyboard player and peeked over her shoulder at the music sheets. We've another gig on wednesday. With no rehearsal, still its a payer.
