tauzero Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I play guitar either solo (occasionally) or in an acoustic duo with Mrs Zero. The covers band has three members plus the drummer's wife who plays keyboards on about 20% of the songs. The ceilidh band is normally a 4-piece plus caller (so I've classed it as 4) but has been as big as six plus caller when we got our reserve guitarist and a cello player in too.

acidbass Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Mine is currently an 8 piece, although we've had it as large as 9 and as small as 6 over the last couple of years. It's great fun being in a bigger band, so many more sonic dimensions (although that's to be expected when you include mandolin and concertina!)

Matty Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 4 of us. We basically work as a power trio. Then add another member who adds waily vocals and funky dancing. though we can survive as a 3 piece too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ou7shined Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 3 bands, all 5 piece. (not counting a new ska collaboration with Neepheid (I'm on guitar) which sounds like it might be a 5'er too) I really want to be in a 3 piece though.

johnnylager Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 [quote name='TheRev' post='281860' date='Sep 11 2008, 02:05 PM']I've almost always been in three piece bands - there's just something about the chemistry you get. Plus, it's easier to organise rehearsals.[/quote] Absolutely. 3 in the new experimental krautrock affair. We have just discovered the joys of a [url="http://www.monsterstudios.co.uk/default.asp"]decent rehearsal studio[/url] with decent backline too.
