WHUFC BASS Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) I would normally post this in the bass players wanted section but we're desperate at the moment so here goes . We've got a gig coming up in the Czech Republic at the end of the month (27th October) and its turned out our bass player can't do it due to work commitments. I'm trying to find a bass player who is into punk music who can learn 13 songs by the end of the month 27th October (the date of the gig). We did have a bass player who said he could do it, wasted two weeks getting the songs over to him and him learning them, only to ring up last night to say he can't do it. All the other bass players I know are either busy or say they can't learn the songs in time. I do realise its short notice but this is a great gig apparently which will be very well attended. We've got a good following abroad and its a paid gig yet nobody wants to help us out so it would seem. I'm currently stressing out due to a lack of a bass player. Any takers ? It would mean learning 13 songs and doing one - maybe two rehearsals before hand. I realise this is short notice but we wasted time with the other bass player who let us down. The songs are reasonably easy to learn - no complicated runs or flash bits, just solid bog standard 8th notes for the most part. Gear will be provided for the gig but you must have a passport ! PM me if interested. Edited October 4, 2012 by WHUFC BASS Quote
the_skezz Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 I'd love to go for it but living up in Birmingham means I'm a bit far away from you so making it down for rehearsals would be bloody difficult Best of luck though, sounds like a great gig. Quote
charic Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 Willing to bet you get some takers on this!! I'm bloody tempted myself but I doubt I could get the time off of work (and there are a LOT better players on here than me) Quote
pietruszka Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 Im already playing that night, otherwise I would have loved to have helped you! Dan Quote
charic Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 Oooh no time off work required... It would just be the practices in london... hmmmmmmmm Quote
WHUFC BASS Posted October 4, 2012 Author Posted October 4, 2012 May possibly have this position covered now chaps so thanks for all your interest ! Quote

dincz Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Bad timing, but Jeff Berlin is playing in Prague on Friday. Jeff Berlin and punk somehow don't go together Quote
lojo Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Has Lozz got the gig? Can we see a link to the band? Quote
charic Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 If the slots still open I think I should be able to do it now Quote
