About
My name's Joe. I just moved here in June '12. I'm 35 yrs old....would like to play something on the heavy side, indie, post-metal/rock, stoner, doom, sludge, desert, older prog, space rock, blues-experimental, punk, or maybe something more eclectic with female vocals. Open-minded on whatever styles/genres to a point. Have good gear, been playing over 20+ years. I've been in a handful of bands before playing thrash metal, hardcore, punk, and indie rock and have gigged here and there. My taste in music is a pretty vast range and would like to get something fun going again...
Would like to find some people to create, play, gig, and record >>>>ORIGINAL<<<< music.
If interested you can message me at spliffburton(at)cox(dot)net OR driver877(at)yahoo
OR call/message/text my cell = four oh five, four-six four, zero four six-eight -Joe
Influences
Many, etc...
ok, a list of drummers I like in no particular order : John Bonham, Bill Ward, Brian Downey, Neil Peart, Mikkey Dee, Buddy Rich, Tony Williams, Joe Morello, Mitch Mitchell, Steve Gadd, Vinnie Colaiuta, Dave Grohl, Dale Crover, Brann Dailor, DJ Bonebreak, George Hurley, Bud Gaugh, Mike Bordin, Nikko McBrain, Charlie Benante, Paul Bostaph, Sean Kinney, etc...
Bands too many to list. I'm a fan of a lot of bands off the SST, Relapse, Man's Ruin, Hydra Head, Small Stone, and season of mist record labels. Fav bands are Sabbath and Rush.
Equipment List
My current kit is a Mapex Saturn. I like Paiste cymbals mainly. Hardware, cases, stands, rack, etc.... Behringer PA with Carvin 1584's. Small home studio setup with a Tascam, condenser mics, monitors, mixer and laptop/DAW ....No, i don't have to use all that gear on my setup in the kit pics. I do have another bass drum but i can even scale it down to a 4-piece, whatever it calls for. Would want to play here at first, then if there's a solid ongoing thing I'll move my kit wherever is secure. Got a jam room here at the house in Janesville that's 10' x 25' in a finished basement. Plenty of accessible power.
