christhammer666 Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 so after having 2 disasters leaving my last 2 bands and not picking up my bass for 3 months,ive decided to try out for another band tomorrow night.after a friend having my bass on loan till last night and the band only sending me some songs yesterday ive only been able to learn one song for the try out .funny thing is I feel quite confident.because Ive not been playing ive not geared myself up for failure..fingers crossed I wont make a total twat of myself Quote
Les Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 You'll be fine mate. Remember it's a two way street, they are also auditioning to be your band. I got the last one I auditioned for but unfortunately they failed their audition to be my band. Quote
christhammer666 Posted July 10, 2013 Author Posted July 10, 2013 ^good point never thought of it like that Quote
christhammer666 Posted July 12, 2013 Author Posted July 12, 2013 to say it was epic was an understatement. got to the studios around an hour early popped in the pub next door had a couple of pints to steady the nerves.went into the room met the band and the first thing they did was hand me a beer(great start).talked over the audition stuff explained apart from a few notes had the songs 99% down.blitzed throught them and nailed them pretty well (beer number 2) had a great laugh really felt all on the same wavelength.even tried some new stuff they have been working on which was great (beer 3) then left and went to the pub (more beers)missed the last train from Brixton and got in just before 2am.......got a text from the guitarist today saying hes gonna send me some stuff to work on for next rehearsals,so alls looking good.i might of even cracked a smile if I didn't have a pounding hangover Quote
