I have moved my studio to Banchory. I you, or anyone you know, is looking for lessons place contact me to find out available times.

I have moved my studio closer to Banchory!

Having established a reputation since 2002 closer to Aboyne, I have made the move to Banchory.

Quality lessons with a qualified tutor are now available.

I don't think I am allowed to write addresses and phone numbers, so please PM me for more details.

LOKi formed in 2006. Our Drummer is leaving for a theatre lighting gig, so we need a replacement.

It is essential that you can temper your sound to sit behind the vocalist; it's not that he is quiet, but we have played gigs where the audience have said that they can only hear the drummer!

We play pubs and functions so you are going to need to travel.

The youngest member of the band is 23 and the oldest is 47: so you should be aged between those.

At our current fees, you can expect to be paid 75 per gig.

Either contact my profile or copy this:

LOKi need a drummer

Hi,

If you are in the market for a band then our band is in the market for you. LOKi are a covers act based in Banchory. The Guitarist and Vocalist work full time in dyce. We are commited, but committed to staying at the leve lwe're at. Currently we have a couple of gigs a month up until New Year. The gigs aren't in Aberdeen city, but we are looking to play more often there.

Current set ranges through Thin Lizzy, to Snow Patrol via Black Crowes and Jimi Hendrix. Our problem with the current drummer is that he's too young so thirties sound good.

either PM me or visit lokitheband BEBO

Cheers

Reasonably competent drummer, mid-30's, most recently with Kartta, decent amount of live experience, looking for a band.

Please note that this is a hobby for me so this means willingness to practice once a week and play something like a gig a month. Gigs outside Aberdeen would be cool but would need plenty notice and not be an overly frequent event due to personal commitments.

My music tastes are wide and varied but for examples of influences see the following -

The Jesus Lizard, Dirty Three, Shellac, Birthday Party, Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds, Galaxie 500, Mclusky, Queens Of The Stone Age, Interpol, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, early-Who, Nuggets, Mogwai, Dinosaur Jr, Nirvana, Neu!, Mogwai, Sunn O))), 13th Floor Elevators, Tindersticks, Salaryman, Uncle John And Whitelock, Black Keys, Sonic Youth, Mudhoney, Sixteen Horsepower.

PM or whatever.

If you want to judge my competence level, my last gig with Kartta is on August 18th at The Moorings.

LOKi are a local covers act. The drummer we have lacks commitment and wants to be a famous song writer. We have a break until August, but then are back in to gigs - 14 between now and New Year.

Contact us if you're interested.

LOKi needs a drummer

Hi Guys,

I am an experienced gigging drummer, looking for a band. I've been out of gigging for about 3 years now, and am looking for a band to get back into it. I'm still pretty competant on the skins, and am looking for to set up an indie band.

Not too sure if this is the right site to post it on, but let's see what happens!

Anyone fancy hiring rehearsal space and seeing what we can sort out?

I may have a guitarist/lead singer....not confirmed yet!

Cheers

Mark

Hi,

I see your avaialbe. LOKi are a covers act working in the North East. We have maturity issues with our current drummer - he also thinks he's God. We have 14 gigs lined up.

Contact me if we can work together.

It's been a while since Therapy? came up as an influence.

Hello everyone,

Basically i need to find someone to help me reign in all my strange ideas and create something semi coherant. I've been playing in bands (mostly metal) for years now, and am fancying a bit of a change. Ideally i'd like to do something in a post punk/new wave style, while keeping my thrashy influences. Ive got tons of ideas, i just need to meet likeminded people who do too, and fancy sitting down and writing some music. And then playing it all over this grey city.

Main influences are Killing Joke, The Chameleons, Megadeth, Therapy? Ride, etc etc.

Get in touch for a chat and/or beer.

cheers.

hey there,

I've just read your posting and it's seems pretty cool. I've been writing since I was 11 and I'm now 29. I hooked up with the girl that became my wife while playing a Therapy? song; she walked down the aisle to Metallica. Hopefully you get the idea what kind of influences I have.

do you want to have a pint and see where it goes?

Looks like we're in the same boat.

I play guitar and would like to write some songs, play some gigs, do some busking, recording even! Looking for people who may have similiar aspirations. Perhaps even form a band, if we can write some songs of course!

Looking for open minded folks aged 19-25? Experience isnt important. Looking to have some fun, enjoy playing with other musicians, share ideas, etc etc....

Diverse range of influences.

Anyone?

I'm actually in a band at the moment, but the musical community is a little fragmented. I can pick up friends all over the place, but trying to find someone who gets what I'm talking about is proving to be difficult. I'm 29, just outside your age range, but I have recording equipment!

Get in touch and we can go out for a pint.

Robin

How far along the trail are you?

Hi Steve,

I'm a bassist currently playing in a band that lacks commitment. As a matter of course we were meant to be practising tonight, but again...

The band that I'm in has fourtenn gigs between now and new year. What's your band output? and I guess the key question is what's your intake? I am frustrated but I'm not going to jump ship in to open water. If you could contact me to discuss then we might be able to work together.

Robin

We (The Cobra Kai) are also on the quest to find that elusive of all band members.... the bassist.

We are currently in the process of writing and developing songs and hope to be gigging by the end of the year.

Current influences include - Pixies, Smashing Pumpkins & Muse although we all have diverse musical tastes so there will be more influences going forwards.

One thing we do want to be doing is vocal harmonies so if you can sing then

Commitment to weekly practice required, also ideally age 25+ male or female.

Anyone interested fire me a pm.

However looking at previous 'bass player wanted' posts i wont hold my breath!

Steve

'Here endeth the lesson'

The worst day in my life.

I notice he is coming back to the UK again later this year and playing relatively small venues. I think we've got some suitable locations here, someone just needs to make him aware of that fact!

Its not a totally unrealistic thought, is it? Im positive itd be a sell out

Any thoughts?

I lived in Cork city for a while and one day I was walking past a bar when I saw a notice up saying that Chris was playing there, the night before. I screamed.

In the days of promoting Euphoria morning he played Cork and that is smaller than Aberdeen. If we book him we will come.
