Looking for some guys to either start a Original PopPunk/Punk/Post Punk Band with or maybe join a already Established Punk Band needing a Bass Player. It's been a few years since I've played Bass in a Band. I played in a Punk Band in Indy for several years (Last Place First) We played a Majority of our shows in Broad Ripple and Played in The Battle of the Bands (Finished 3rd overall)
"The Battle of the Bands Finals," held at the Music Mill, in Indianapolis..There was 18 Bands in the Finals.. I won the Best Bass Player Award out of the 18 Bass Players competing in the Finals. (I actually won a Ampeg BA 115 Combo Amp for winning the award) Pretty cool!! ????
The last several years I've just been playing acoustic guitar and writing at home.. But I've been really wanting to get back into playing Original music with a Band and writing/Making new Music. I miss playing onstage with a Band!!
I have some Recordings of me Playing in my old Punk Band (Last Place First) Both Audio and video which I'll upload soon.

EQUIPMENT
My Acoustic Guitar that I Play is a Gibson Advanced Jumbo..
As far as my Bass Equipment..
I've Always Played a Ampeg SVT 4×10 Cabinet and a Ampeg Power Amp, but my Dad gave me a 1970's, Peavey Cab and Power Amp, He bought it in the 70's for his Bass player.. its a 2×15 Peavey Bass Cabinet with a Peavey Bass Power Head. (I dont remember what Model or the Watt the Power Head is, ill have to look) I really like the sound, tone, and Thump from a 2×15 more than I do my Old Ampeg SVT 4×10..
As far as a Bass, I've had 3 American Fender Basses.. 2 American Fender Jazz Basses and my favorite was my American Fender P-Bass..
I ended up Selling all of them (Which is a long story) I don't currently have a Bass..lol.. But it won't be a Big Deal buying a new one. I've been wanting to get back into Playing Bass in a Band so lve been on the Search for a American Fender P-Bass again.. I thought before I spend the money ($1,200 - $1,500 or more) on a American Fender P-Bass again I'd make sure Playing in a Band again was going to work out. Lol.. So again It won't be a big deal to Buy one..
