meiklejohn Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Hey, we have just lost our bass player to other commitments just as we were feeling close to gig worthy. Were a band based just outside Ellon called "Little Roxy" but that will probably change... And we play rock and roll. I will list a few songs at the bottom of the page but bassically were 4 very commited lads that love music and have spent alot of money on equipment so it needs to be used. Weve turned my mates garage into a proper little jamming studio. Kitted out with brand new carpets and acoustic tiles, even have a 3 seater couch! A full pa and so on aswel.We really need a bass player to complete our lineup, were all in our early twenties but if you love rock and roll and can manage out 2 nights a week then your our guy. An average guitarist could even do it, we have all the equipment youll need to play bass! Songs;Lenny kravits - are you gonna go my wayBad company - cant get enough and feel like making loveTom petty - learning to flyThe kinks - really got meChuck berry - johnny b goodeT rex - 20th century boyThin lizzy - rosalieQueen - tie your mother downEtc...So lets do it! Give me a shout! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meiklejohn Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Haha they'll know what I mean. A guitarist who's willing to put the hours in can do it... A real bassist is best tho ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diesel Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Sweet! Alienate bass players by saying an average guitarist could do it and then alienate said average Joe's with the "real bassist" remark Seriously though, when I read this I thought "Ooooh", because I'm moving to Ellon in about 8 weeks time and both my current bands to almost all the songs you listed. However... a) I'm a guitaristb) I'm getting on a bit and yooz are all youngstersc) I don't currently own a bass guitar - though do have a bass amp Good luck with it though and if I can think of anyone who might fill the bass slot, then I'll send them your way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meiklejohn Posted February 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Bump... Sorry if I offended any bass players with the average guitarist comment also :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigP Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 I'm a bassist who might have been interested but seeing as I may only be an "average" bassist that would mean Id be vastly "under qualified"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meiklejohn Posted February 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 Haha I said sorry :-( just trying to cover more areas because bass players are rare so a guitarist who was willing to put in the hours could have done it... That's all :-) I love all you 4 stringers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tubby Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Hi Meiklejohn, Found yourself a bass player yet? If not, i'm free and although getting on quite a bit I need the therapy. I can always stand at the back out of sight. I sing as well by the way and your kinda stuff is up my street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meiklejohn Posted March 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Hey guys sorry position is filled, if it doesn't work out I'll be in touch. Thanks for the interest though. Happy rocking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
