SisterAbdullahX Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Just had a call from a bandleader I used to work for offering me a month in a 5 star hotel in Eilat, Israel, starting 19th April. He isn't the bandleader for this particular band but said he would ask all the bass players he used to use in his band to try and fill the gig. He is looking for someone on a full time basis to cover all their UK gigs as well, do it is a permanent post. I don't know much about what they do over here but I have done the Eilat gig 4 times with other bands. It's in a pub attached to a 5 star hotel. Accommodation is in the hotel, all very nice, all meals, laundry, drink allocation etc included. PA and back line included too so only bass required. I enjoyed my times over there a lot. Would also have to add that some of the ladies in that part of the world are stunning! I can't do it as I have work and family commitments but if anyone is interested drop me a pm and I'll forward all details on. Cheers. Quote
SisterAbdullahX Posted February 27, 2013 Author Posted February 27, 2013 I forgot to mention, band based in South Yorkshire. Quote
lobematt Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 I could be interested! What's the regular UK work? And also what's the pay? Quote
SisterAbdullahX Posted February 27, 2013 Author Posted February 27, 2013 I don't have any details of pay or other work but if you want to pm your details I can forward them on and I'm sure you'd get a call back. Cheers. Quote
SisterAbdullahX Posted February 27, 2013 Author Posted February 27, 2013 Cheers Matt. I'll forward on tonight when I get in from work. Quote

Charla Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 Impossible, how can a bass player not be a member of Basschat? Quote

thumperbob 2002 Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 I did this gig many years ago. Had a great time. Hanging around with some pretty amazing New York musicians. It was the Eilat jazz festival at the same time. Quote
