Nicko Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 I've been looking for a band opportunity for a good few months, since my last band folded due to a dispute between two of the members. I have to say that the one thing worse than no longer being in a band is trying to find a new one. I'm not fussy - I'm happy playing bass or guitar, covers or originals. I'd like to stay away from Blues, Jazz and C&W but other than that I'm fairly easy I dont want to hit the big time, or make a career out of music. I dont really want to play death metal and I'm no longer between 20 and 30. Is all hope lost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petebassist Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Have you considered hooking up with someone to do open-mics in the meantime? I found it a good opportunity to meet other musicians and contacts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinB Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Can't find a band? Start one! You never know how many drummers/guitarists/etc. are out there in the same position as you - waiting for the right band to come along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done this a few times now because I wanted to be able to dictate rehearsal schedules etc. Singers are a bit of a pain to find but drummers and guitarists are easier.
