  1. I was looking to form a band with a keyboard player. If you want a listen to the sort of stuff we'll be doing: Music listen to Beauty and Creation which both have keyboard parts. I'm no key board player so you'll probably find the parts a little odd and by your standards very easy to play, but different is good isn't it? See what you think

  2. Hey man, I'm of a similar mentality, 18 years old, playing Guitar 2 and a half years. I play bass and a little keys as well. I'm starting up a band at the moment, you might want to check it out. See my thread: Band Thread Check out some of the demos on my acid planet account, see what you think.

    My influences are fairly wide spread as well: ACDC, Aerosmith, Bruce Dickinson, Iron Maiden, Helloween, Megadeth, GN'R, L.A. Guns, Poison, Motley Crue, WASP, Hanoi Rocks, Alice Cooper, Faster Pussycat, Skid Row, Slash's snakepit, Velvet Revolver, The Cult, Buckcherry, Gamma Ray, Hammerfall, Dire Straights, Brides of Destruction, Masterplan, Ugly Kid Joe, Marty Friedman, Stone Temple Pilots, Loaded, Oasis, Buckethead, Alanis Morrisette, Buddy Holly, Bowling for Soup, Greenday, Led Zepplin, Black Sabbath, Dio, Pink Floyd, The Darkness, ASAP, NightWish, JS Bach, Handel, Tonci Huiljic, Joe Satriani, R.E.M, Mozart, Andy Timmons, Sheryl Crow, Within Temptation

  3. My last post got some good responses, but I had said it was to be a side project for me. I want to take that back. I want to go ahead with this as my no.1 priority. To all those who replied and haven't gotten back to me, please do ASAP. I'm gonna try organise something for January. And are there any Keyboard players out there? I've been playing around a little with keys and would quite like a player in the band. And just to stress, everyone is welcome to write material and make suggestions. It's not just gonna be a one man show, the more input and influences, the better. I just finished recording this short intro today, it's a little messy in places but is a general idea of the band's direction, but not concrete: Beauty (Intro)

    Hope to hear from you all ~Andy

    I'm at home for Christmas but will be back in Aberdeen in January, I'd be up for a jam to see how we go.

  5. Looking for musicians to form a band or even a temporary duo or trio with. I play guitar and write a lot of original material: http://www.acidplanet.com/artist.asp?songs=296909&T=5213 I am currently with another band, which is on hold at the moment, but would divide my committment evenly between the two once it has resumed. I just want to get gigging again. I'm not looking for Joe Satrianis or Steve Harris's, just some folk to jam with.

  6. How can you pack so much ignorance and prejudice into one post is beyond me. I'm not a massive Manics fan, I think they are ok, bordering on good, but nothing special. That doesn't mean I'm an idiot. Different influences keep a band varied. And what the hell are you on about? "The music is secondary" ? Having meaning to your lyrics and a message behind what you are doing is important, but by no means does it take presidence over the music. It's called music ffs, not message! Do you go into shops looking for a new CD in the "message" section? Brighten up your ideas mate. And don't bother with a smart assed reply or PM because I wont read it.

  7. Hey Kerry, I am currently putting a band together, and we might be needing a new singer. We plan to play a mix of things really. We don't want to limit ourselves. There are a few sketchy demos online at: http://www.acidplanet.com/artist.asp?songs=296909&T=7003 just click the wee triangle to play them. And every member of the band has a free reign for input, so if you have and idea or direction you'd like to try out, then that's cool. I'm also at Aberdeen Uni, what year you in? I'm 1st year staying at Wavell, in Hillhead, what about you?

  8. Cheek man! We have Classic Rock, Heavy Metal, Punk , Folk, Country, Gothic, Classical and everything inbetween? So what the hell is your idea of diverse? Honestly. And please no more smart ass replies from anyone. Only if you have some info for me or want to comment on any of the music.
