ABOUT

THIS LISTING RE-POSTED 4-3-2015

Established cover band seeking a drummer.

We cover Classic Rock, Top Hits, R&B, and some Dance from the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, through today.

MATURE ONLY PLEASE! We play local clubs and are paid for our gigs (if you're experienced, you know the going rates -- it's not much). We do this primarily for fun and our love of music. We all have other careers -- if you're trying to make a living from playing in a band, this is not the right situation for you. Please do not respond. This band has extremely strong and polished vocals and we're constantly told we're one of the best bands at every venue we play. We generally gig on weekend nights, but are looking to expand into other gig possibilities.

What we're looking for:

- Mature
- Reliable
- Dependable transportation
- Broad knowledge of top hits from the 60s through today
- Fun personality and good sense of humor
- Strong teamwork spirit and sense of commitment (no flakes, please)
- Other means of financial support (agian, not looking to make a living with music)
- Dedicated to one band (if you're playing in multiple bands, please don't respond -- too many conflicts)
- Located in or near Ventura
- Willing to travel to other California or Nevada locations for special gigs
- Ability to play at proper volume levels based on the size of the venue
- Scheduling flexibility -- will make the band a priority when adding gigs to calendar
- Can gig on weekends -- afternoon or night (up to 1AM for clubs)
- Can gig on weeknight when special gigs are booked
- Ability to rehears once per month (initially there will be more rehearsals to get the new drummer up to speed)
- Professional gear
- Ability to play to a click track (wearing ear buds)
- Willing to help the band scout and book gigs

There... that's not asking too much, is it?

The opening for the drummer position is immediate.
