And Pirate studios announced reopening but only to solo artists and people of the same household...🙄

 

It looks like my 9-piece band will have to move in together then

yup...

it doesn't look like we're rehearsing anytime soon.

We're actually considering going to a park or another suitable and allowed outdoors place to get together and practice there. We've got the equipment, just need the weather (rainy and miserable today).

Well, this is novel.

I recorded a backing track last night and we’ve been sending to potential new guitarists.

just going to upload to google drive and I’ll share results on here.

here’s the backing track -

This is Maurizio who contacted us via our website...I really like what he did with it, very “Mother’s Milk” - and he replied with his recording within 3 hours.

Hasn't he got a job then?

Ah. Hmm.

i might have to look at settings on the drive. I’m so inept with technology.

Really like what he's done, very RHCP-esque indeed. Grab him before he goes away!

Yeah - and his enthusiasm is encouraging 

[Owen]

I stopped listening to him after about 30 seconds in a good way. I could still hear him but he was blending nicely so I just took him as part of the package.

[Dad3353]

Jolly good; fits in well. Slightly dubious about the 'wah', but it's in keeping, for some. He'd be worth following up, I'd suggest.

Interesting. The drums and bass kind of 'made more sense' when he was playing.

I thinks that means he's a good fit!

Yeah - I made it a bit awkward to see what the guys and gals would do with it.

he did a great job

..and in that time recorded two guitar parts that fitted in really nicely without being too ostentatious. I liked the lead part at the end. 

[fleabag]

I think you should lasso him.  Sounds great .

What bass were you using on the recording ?   Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet tone

I’ve been talking with this guy for a month, I really like him.

The other guys (think there are 5 others)

2 have said they’ll send something over by the weekend.

I think this guy just has his recording gear set up to go,  I know I struggle at times so will give the others an opportunity.

Plus - once we’re all in a room, it could fall apart.
