Bass player wanted for new Wakefield band

[Born to Lose]

Bass player wanted for new band - the idea is to do a bit of a mix of R & B, rock & roll, a bit of country, a bit of punk - like Leeds band the Prowlers used to do when I was with them (if you've heard of them, of course) -

One of those things though that could change quite a bit when everyone throws ideas in and stuff gets bounced around - probably just covers though, a good mix of some well known stuff and some not so I guess - if you haven't already, check out the Jim Jones Revue, great attitude and performance.

Not looking to be ridiculously busy, but decent standard of playing, and above all, the enjoyment of playing stuff we like live. Don't worry, we're not the type of people who want to rehearse endlessly and never do anything with it - been there too often thanks.

Other members are well experienced middle-agers based around Wakefield / Leeds area.

Should be a lot of fun for someone

I'd be interested in this. Would you rehearse in Leeds or Wakey? I'm at a conference at the moment but will PM you in a couple of days.

Have a dedicated rehearsal room in Dewsbury where we can leave PA set up etc - costs a bit, but a lot better then lugging gear in and out constantly - you just need to brave the cold in winter.

All the times I've advertised for musicians before, it's been like pulling teeth, and this time I have three interested parties immediately.

[size=4]I offered the job to someone just yesterday, so hopefully all will work out well, but many thanks indeed to peeps who responded, it's good to know there are people around here who are so keen.[/size]

[Bassman Rich]

Good luck to all in this.

[Born to Lose]

Thanks Rich, that's much appreciated.

[Born to Lose]

Job available again guys - let down unfortunately.

Rich, I've chatted on here to that Kirky lad, seems like a decent bloke, give him a try if you havent already.

Ps I thought of you the other day, was at City Varieties (remember Ian Hunter & Jason Scorcher??) watching Rich Hall, and the first pre gig song they played, Jason and The Scorchers version of that Dylan one, sweet Marie. I though 'Jesus Christ, if the next one is 'the name of the tractor is John....DEER, I'm off back to the bar'!!!, I'm sure you'll get the new band to do a few of his songs.

[Born to Lose]

Don't put em all off mate - well, maybe one or two songs anyway...good to hear from you again man.

[Born to Lose]

We think we're sorted at the moment at least, we're trying someone out, so we'll see how it goes for a few weeks and see how he fits in, but many thanks to everyone for your interest, I'll certainly keep everyone's details and get in touch if necessary.
