barneyg42 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 I'm not well so my lot had to get a dep in pretty sharpish for last night! Cut forward and my singer is being inundated with bass players wanting my job!!!!! In the words of Arnie " I'll be back"!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTUK Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 A bit tacky going after a dep job when the guy isn't well. I think that tells them a lot about the type of guy wanting to join... hopefully they'll knock it back If you were fully fit and they wanted to upgrade that is another story, but the only reason it is factor is because you can't play atm.. Yep..band sounds a decent prospect if lots of guys are chasing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only changes have been the drummer (usual Spinal Tap sh*t) so my position is more than secure. I wouldn't mind but all the singer did was punt around for a dep and mention online and at the gig that I was ill! Bloody vultures I tell you!

Hobbayne Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 In my experience, bassists are hard to come by. Guitarists are two a penny in my part of London. Drummers and keys are also thin on the ground. Addlestone must be full of unemployed bassists then?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassTractor Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 [quote name='barneyg42' timestamp='1439142716' post='2840369'] Bloody vultures I tell you! [/quote] What are their BC user names? I think we should politely ask them to help us keep up the BC myth... :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CamdenRob Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 So... where is this successful band with a bass player opening based? ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
