4-string-thing Posted January 9, 2013 Author Posted January 9, 2013 [quote name='KevB' timestamp='1357752540' post='1927888'] I suppose that might be this one then? [url="http://www.ayntskynyrd.com/"]http://www.ayntskynyrd.com/[/url] I'm amazed a 9 piece tribute is financially viable, maybe this is why some of them are looking to gig in a more manageable set up? [/quote] No, its not this one, but from all sorts of points of view, any 9 piece tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd are never going to gig much are they? They themselves have said they can't get many gigs, mainly I suspect to a limited appeal and the logistics of getting 9 people available at the same time! Anyway, thanks for all your replies, I'm going and will hopefully get on with them and maybe suggest a few songs.... Quote
4-string-thing Posted January 9, 2013 Author Posted January 9, 2013 [quote name='The Admiral' timestamp='1357699957' post='1927014'] Don't know if you are active on it, but Talkawhile is a great folky forum, with plenty of muso chat going on, and you may find a session or a gig on there : [url="http://www.talkawhile.co.uk/yabbse/index.php"]http://www.talkawhil...abbse/index.php[/url] [/quote] Cheers for that Admiral, added to my favourites and will check it out tomorrow!

mep Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Possibly yes. If your heart is not in it anx you are not inspired by the songs don't bother. If you are reasonably keen on gigging then keep looking. Quote

KevB Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) They seem decent enough musicians, though with an ensemble like that it's a bit easier to 'hide'. As has been said before the provisional audition list may be back of fag packet stuff that they all know to try out new recruits with. Edited January 10, 2013 by KevB Quote
4-string-thing Posted January 12, 2013 Author Posted January 12, 2013 Ok, so I went along in the end and enjoyed it, though the best bit was an impromptou "Mustang Sally" (yes, really) All nice enough blokes and I was thinking I'd probably go back( they asked me to join) but the next day I recieved an email from a folky band I auditioned for before about 5 weeks ago, asking if I was available to rehearse on Tuesday? As I'm a folkie at heart, it was no contest, so Green Fortune, here I come! [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Tyx_Z0Wqn4"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Tyx_Z0Wqn4[/url] Quote
