Bass Nation

So I hit the craigslist musician ads today and came across one that might be up my alley. Two guitarists/songwriters with a rented studio not too far from me are looking to put together a full band to play progressive hard rock. They’re around my age, have day jobs, realistic expectations and a good plan on how to go about putting something like this together. I sent them links to some of my old stuff and they’re interested in jamming, possibly as early as tonight!

I haven’t tried out for a band in a few years. When we first moved from the East Coast to San Francisco I briefly looked for something but I was already badly out of practice. The one tryout I did I was rather musically timid needless to say that didn’t work out and I felt dejected, though looking back I could hardly blame them. I came really close to trying out for a 60’s cover band about 2 years ago, but the time commitment was too much for me at the time and it wasn’t really my thing anyway. I think at that point I was just looking to play anything and they practiced right in my neighborhood.

I’m in a completely different place now. I know what I want to play. I practice regularly and try to expand my sounds. I’m ready to jump right in and rock the hell out. I promise to keep both ofmy regular readers up to date as this progresses.
