SEEKING

Band to Join, Bass Guitar, Lead Guitar, Rhythm Guitar, Vocalist.

ABOUT

I believe that I am a very good drummer with tremendous upside and potential. I love playing live shows and making the crowd go nuts. I will do anything and everything. I will spit water in the air, dress however the band wants me to dress (mask, makeup, hair), get the crowd involved, or anything else in between. I am always researching new techniques and moves for my live show and will always be trying to improve whatever it is that I am lacking, whether it's consistency in timing or backup vocals.

I believe that I can be a great and valuable asset to any rock/metal band out there. I am not arrogant and I have no ego. I have been told I can play for any famous band, which only inspires me to continue to improve. I am also very critical of myself because I want to be the very best; I will never be satisfied and I'll never be just "ok" with my playing.

As much as I may be looking for a new band, I also am watching you playing. I don't want to be told that I am the band anymore. I need players that are very good with their instruments, singers that have range, and individuals that care about their live performance, whether that be stage presence or how you dress for shows. I don't need druggies or alcoholics in the band either. I am also a family oriented man. I recently got married and I would want to bring my wife and family to shows so I want to be in a band where everyone values their families, because sometimes without them, we may play for no one.

I know this is a lot to take in, but I've been playing in a band consistently for about 5 months now and I know what I want and don't want. If there's anything you need to know about me or just want to talk, email me at just1nsanity and I'll answer anything you want to ask.

Oh, and I'll throw in here that I'm very good with video editing and photography and editing. I know Photoshop and I've done band photos in the past, so I'll also bring this into the band.

Bands I've played with/for:
Drowning Pool, Tantric, Nonpoint, AM Conspiracy, Adema and more.

Influences

Some of my bigger influences for my playing style are Morgan Rose (Sevendust) and Shannon Larkin (Godsmack). Usually my style changes a little bit based on what I'm listening to at the time. I am consistent but always open to change.

I am also influenced and love playing heavy rock, nu metal, alternative rock/metal and most of the sub categories in those general genres. If I could pick a style that I feel most comfortable with, it would be along the lines of Sevendust.
