ABOUT

Not looking for anything too serious, just looking for a guitarist and/or bassist to jam once or twice a week. Down to just jam, play covers, or write a couple new songs. I enjoy playing rock/alternative, some classic rock, a little southern rock, jam band type songs, and jamming to some jazz/funk beats is always a good time. Not into heavy metal or punk, and not crazy about country either. Not trying to play a bunch of gigs right away, but if it came up in the future, would be willing to play a couple bars. I just permanently moved into the area from Chicago and am trying to get a full time job down here so I'm not planning to make a career in music (it would be nice though haha). Had a band through high school, played a few battle of the bands and small gigs and recorded a full album in 2008 before everybody went their separate ways for college. Looking for somebody with decent experience (need not be a professional musician, but if you picked up a guitar for the first time last week, jamming might not be that fun). It would be cool if you are around my age (23). Please no drug addicts either. Not trying to jam for 10 minutes then sit around gettin high for the next 2 hours.

90's/00's Alternative Rock like Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam, Blind Melon, Weezer, My Morning Jacket, Radiohead, Wilco, Soundgarden, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Third Eye Blind. Some Jam/Funk like moe., Galactic, G Love, Umphrey's McGee, Warren Haynes and Gov't Mule. Also some classic rock like The Who, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix, Neil Young, Allman Brothers. Not much country, but into a few southern rock/folk bands like Lucero and Drive By Truckers.

EQUIPMENT

Drum set, can jam at my place as long as it isn't too late at night, I don't need my neighbors hating me. No mics or recording equipment unfortunately, but hopefully in the future I will be able to invest in them. Also have a decent set of congas and bongos, but not as experienced with them.
