waltz Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 there's a 'networking' section of this site. Does what it says on the tin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monster Zero Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Don't be an Oasis tribute band or list Oasis in your influences.Don't be a 'insert obscure variation here' metal band. Unless it's doom metal. That's kind of cool.Don't put age restrictions on your advert. You won't get famous anyway so it doesn't matter if the drummer is older than you. Chances are he/she will have the balls and the knowledge to tell you when your music sucks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rass Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 place a small selection of cooked meats under a box, propped up at one side by a stick attached to a string, hide out of sight holding the other end of the string and wait.

Fast Caz Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Stop whining, get good, play fast, poach a drummer from another band. I do like the suggestion of learning drums yourself.Learn to blast fucking fast and I'm sure you'll have no bother. Hell play soo good and fast maybe you can take over from me in Ablach. NAH!!! I get too much enjoyment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HateEvent Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 I need to get faster. I get too frustrated if I can't play along to stuff, and the stuff I listen to is usually too quick for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scootray Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 It's all very well telling the guy to learn to play himself but there's the big problem of getting a drum kit and finding somewhere where it's not going to cause noise nuisance.I have an electric and an acoustic, but now I have no room for my electric and my acoustic is just too loud for where I live. If it wasn't for this then I'd be able to play drums as much as I liked, but alas it's not the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 There does seem to be a shortage of drummers who are sans-band up here.Once you've nailed one down, make him sign a contract, like the Mars Volta did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsinho Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 I ain't signin' no contract.Get Rock Band/Guitar Hero learn the drums from that. It's the only thing I've got to practice on at home these days and it's not as terrible as it appears.Alternatively, be persistent, keeps your eyes open and hope for the best.

Soda Jerk Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 The studio bit on Guitar Hero WT, where you can record drum tracks is ace, with all the different kits.
