Drummer (age 47, Bethlehem, PA) looking to join existing, or close to playing out, Lehigh Valley vicinity weekend cover band. Also available for fill-in situation. Ideally want to gig about 2 or 3 times a month and am available for weekly rehearsals. Classic Rock, Modern Rock, Dance, R&B, Standards, New Country… open to just about anything but Heavy Metal, Rap, and originals. Good chops, good attitude, good equipment, mature, dependable, and responsible. Don’t need to get rich, just want to enjoy playing out on a consistent basis. I currently gig with a classic rock/country/oldies band in Warren County. Prior to this I was with a successful horn band in Northern New Jersey (NYC area).
