Thanks to Jeff for bumping this up.

We are martianrebel, an alt. rock/punk band in Toronto, Canada with a good background and we are in need of a SINGER!

Our singer has decided to concentrate on his 9 to 5 career and focus on his family 100%. We wish him lots of luck and will remain friends with the guy.

This opens up opportunities for us and for a new singer.

We play a variety of cover tunes to get bar gigs. We also play a bunch of original songs and are working on new originals.

One of our originals, "Don't Kill Me", was voted as the #2 song in Canada on a MuchMusic internet poll. The same song is regularly on the Broadjam.com top 10 charts (Mostly on the Punk chart), and got as high as being the #2 song in Canada and the #4 song in North America.

Some of our criteria: Individual must be mature, commited to 1 rehearsal a week and at least 1 gig/month (maybe more), and contribute to the band's success. We don't want anyone just "along for the ride".

You can check us out at our website http://www.martianrebel.com and can contact us through that site's contact, or PM me. We are looking to move very quickly on this.

Cheers!

.... So now we need a drummer.

Our drummer didn't show for rehearsal WITH OUR NEW SINGER last night.

I call him and he tells me that he hasn't been having fun playing music for a while now.

What we have here is a lack of communication.

It would have been nice to know that before we went through all of the headaches of auditionning singers.

What a bastard.

So, if you're a drummer in the West End of Toronto with your own gear and motivation to be in a fun band, PM me.

I'm only bitter on the inside.

Band / Jam group wanted

- I am a keyboardist looking for some people to jam with this summer. I have my own gear (keys, amp, wheels) and some experience; I have my own band in Williamsburg, VA that performs music I write & sing.

- I will be in the Washington DC / Fairfax County area for the summer (I'm away from my main band, which is why I'm looking for people!)

- I have lots of experience with religious stuff, but prefer rock, pop, and electronica-based music.

- Please PM me if you're interested in jamming this summer.

Hello all, to make a long story short and not to waste too many peoples time, my guitarist and I (bass) are looking for a drummer to gig with in the Chicago region. We are both in college (or grad school) based out of Lemont, IL (~40 minutes SW of Chicago). Want a good drummer for originals but covers as well (main point to get across - want to gig/play, have fun, and get paid - therefore the cover songs). Practices would be most likely either nights or weekends. If anyone is interested let me know by e-mailing me at: ancoco@lewisu.edu I hope to hear from you.

Hello everyone

The band I'm in called Hollow Bastion is looking for a keyboard player.

We are from Tampa Florida and it doens't seem like many people in these forums are from around there.

However,if you are a keyboardist who lives in the greater Tampa area and would like to play keyboards in an agressive band with many influences ranging from Gothenburg, to Screamo, to Black Dahlia Murder style death metal, some epic sounding metal, and even a bit of pop punk, please contact me.

We also all are pretty laid back and somewhat dorky too.

The only real requirements aside from the will to do it are:
-Saturdays free
-Good amplifier for your keyboard
-Pretty good knowledge of music (as we all are fairly experienced musicians)
-The will to do more than just plunk on single notes

*we are also very very interested in incorperation electronic parts into our songs so if you have interest in that too, even better!*

Thanks for reading!

I'm rebuilding my band, Deep Pocket, and converting from Blues to Classic Rock/Current Rock. Looking for a bass player and a keyboard player. Prefer players who also have some vocal ability even if it's simply backup.

We have been practicing in the Los Angeles/Hollywood area and have had gigs from Costa Mesa to Hermosa Beach. This is for fun and we want to play a few times per month. Currently, we have a drummer, a lead guitarist, and me on rhythm guitar.

Email deeppocketband@gmail.com if interested. http://www.deeppocketband.com to see the last incarnation.

Thanks.

My name is Tully Folton, I am a blues/jazz guitarist by trade, but I am hired to play alot of different styles. I am from central Wisconsin, and have been playing for 22 years. I am for hire on studio projects, and as a fill in guitarist when a member of the band cannot perform. I need little to no practice with your band as long as I am provided with a chords list for each song. My contact information is:

W19134 Lake st. Aniwa, Wi. 54408

Phone #:715-449-5417

Cell #:715-216-0000

Hi all I posted on craigslist also so I am hoping to fill this spot:

We are a drummer and bassist who are looking for someone who will meet our requirements for a lead guitarist. We want to create original music and play some covers, but our focus is on the creation of good quality of music. We plan on doing recordings, gigging and putting much time and effort into this band - you must be willing to make both the time and financial commitments. The style of music we want to play up-beat, high energy driven melodic and poppy kind of music. Our influences come from all over but you must be able to adapt and listen. This is a group effort and we are looking for someone who thinks very similar to the two of us. This isn't going to be a trio so your pipes don't have to be golden but if you have an angelic voice, that'd be a big plus. Some degree of formal training desired, but self-taught is fine so long as you can relate the ideas and feel of the music we want to create.

Looking for a guitarist who is:

DEPENDABLE
RELIABLE
Responsive
Has quality equipment
Will invest
Willingness To Practice
Loves music for the sake of it being music
A desire to have a fun and enjoyable time

Preferably between the ages of 20-24 but if interested outside of this range and you got the chops then feel free to contact us anyways.

If you think you fit the bill by all means send us a message and a link where maybe we can hear your material and hopefully we can set something up. We usually practice ~2x a week, the sooner the better as we are looking to get a solid lineup before the new year.

Be serious, we don't want to waste your time so please don't waste ours. You should know if your capable of making the commitments or not...

Waking The Fallen

Progressive metal band from Hamilton ON
looking for a keyboardist age 16-20

http://www.myspace.com/officalwakingthefallen

I am not sure this is the best place to post this, but we've been searching for a guitar player forever and are running out of options! We're in the Washington DC area (near Frederick Maryland). Here's the ad I've been running:

We're a group of 40-something musicians (bass, keys, vocals and drums) looking for a talented, experienced, motivated guitarist. If you're into bands like Genesis, Yes, Pink Floyd, Kansas and Asia then you might be the person we're looking for.

If everybody does their homework, we should be able to get together every 2-3 weeks for a few hours. We consider this a hobby for now, but anything's possible, including playing live and the development of original material. We have practice space (with PA) in the Frederick, Maryland area.

The songs we're playing already:

Genesis - Firth of Fifth
Genesis - In That Quiet Earth
Genesis - Afterglow
Genesis - Squonk
Asia - Time Again
Asia - Without You
Pink Floyd - Speak To Me/Breathe/On the Run/Time/Breathe Reprise
Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb
Yes - Cinema

We’re looking for someone who is not only eager to play this style of music, but can play it fluently as well. If you’re a beginner or have never played in a band, please don’t waste our time. We have a list of songs we’re interested in learning, but nothing is set in stone and we're very open to your suggestions.

Some other "potential" songs:

Tony MacAlpine - Porcelain Doll
Genesis - Behind The Lines Medley
Genesis - Fly on a Windshield/Broadway Melody
Genesis - Watcher of the Skies
Asia - Wildest Dreams
Yes - Long Distance Runaround
Yes - Heart of the Sunrise
Yes - Parallels
Yes - It Can Happen
Yes - Changes
Yes - Tempus Fugit
Yes - Machine Messiah
King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King
Kansas - Miracles Out of Nowhere
Kansas - Song for America
Kansas - The Wall
Kansas - Point of Know Return
Rush - Beneath the Wheels
Gentle Giant - Words From The Wise (or medley)

Anyway, thanks for bothering to read this...if you're a guitarist in the area or know a guitarist in the area, please pass this along.

Bill

Hi,

These forums came recommended and I'm enjoying them. Here's a new search for the thread.
---------------------------------------------------------------


Who: Progressive Rock drums and Symphonic vocals looking for versatile, experienced, enthusiastic musicians for original metal project. Actively searching for guitar, bass, and keys. The members so far are around 30, with families and day jobs.


Where: Raleigh-Durham, NC. Practice is once weekly. Shows will be taken whenever the opportunity arises. Please be able to commit to as much.


What: If you're into bands like Dream Theater, Shadow’s Fall, Nightwish, Symphony X, Soilwork, and Within Temptation, you might be who we're looking for. You should already have some background in musicianship, appreciate musical virtuosity, and see new situations as just another opportunity for creativity. We want to form a collaborative group that share a continual desire to improve, who love the creative aspects of working with others, and who share a passion for dynamic, complex, multi-layered, textural, non-standard, multi-element work. And metal!

Thanks

Established Progressive Rock band seeks keyboardist in New York/New Jersey area. We released our first CD in 2007, received great reviews, and have a respectable international following. We are looking to gig frequently and play festivals to support our new release coming out this summer.

We all work day jobs and have families, and have a very reasonable rehearsal schedule. We shoot for once per week, and can be flexible. We don't care about age, race, gender, orientation, etc. We're looking for someone with a passion for music, and open mind, and a sense of humor! This is a fun band to be in.

More details about the band and links to audio samples are available on our website at: http://www.shadowcircusmusic.com.

I am a musician by avocation, starting jamming with some like-minded mates a few months ago, we are in our fifties, and our keyboard player bailed on us. Looking for a like-minded keyboard player, think Hammond B-3. We are inspired by the Allmans, Santana, Blind Faith, Robben Ford, Miles Davis etc. For fun not profit, but looking to play out eventually. We have rehearsal facilities including keyboards. Let me know if you have any interest, we have two guitars, bass and drums. Thanks. (PS I live in suburban Philadelphia) email: cozzaj@comcast.net
