Shmikes Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 I'd be interested. My band Nu Era are seeking a drummer and lead guitarist.We have one song to date (hope you're a Dons fan) Nu Era <nuera2008>We're based in the Bloo Toon! I have a couple new tunes writeen (not footie ones, don't worry), I'm very varied in styles, don't want to get caught up in genres. Want to try a bit of everything, blues, heavy, indie etc. Will be a rock band but you get my idea.Our influences include AC/DC, Oasis, Stone Roses, Foo Fighters, Muse etc. I like a lot of varied music.Our lead guitarist (who also provided drums for our only song to date) has had to quit because of other commitments. He was heavily influenced by Dream Theater and Pink Floyd (Petrucci is his idol).Do you have the time to practice etc? How old are you? We're 20-21 years of age.Let me know if you're interested and if you have any questions please ask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jobsonandrew Posted July 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Hey,thanks for getting back (so quick!)...What happened to your drummer? I'd want to get off the ground gigging pretty quick.. You got a list of songs/setlist pinned down? PS I'm 22 and work full time, so weekends are best for me.. friday nights too as i would already be in townThanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

algorhythm Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Hi Jobsonandrew, Classic rock and blues is my cup of tea. I play guitar and I am mature. I can sing harmony, but I would need someone to sing lead. You can hear me on Sydney Drum Tutor - Drum Tuition for Sydney Australia - Follow links to "The Dave Harris Band" and "Virtual Floyd" alan99manley@yahoo.co.uk cheers Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
