Guitarist/Songwriter/Singer (Cat’s boiling in oil style - singer that is), looking to get a WORKING Part-Time to Full Time Band/Show going. I have a reasonable set of certainties of what KIND of a band I am looking to form (Think Kiss/Cooper/Bowie “Persona’s”, with Floyd-NIN; and everything in between, type music AND an ever DEVELOPING STAGE SHOW – this is VEGAS!!!)
While I’m not delusional about the realities of the music-business, I would like to make a valid attempt at reaching some degree of celebrity, and I am looking for people with that same goal in mind.
NOTE: I’m not looking for this to be an ALL or Nothing venture. I would, however, like to think that it is a strong motivational factor. I don’t have a “Sell-Out Mentality”; all glitz and show production, but the music sucks, but I’m NOT against “Selling Out” Arenas 200+ Nights a year… Please be able to recognize the difference.
If interested, please reply to this post along with anything else about yourself you’d like to share. If your submission sounds like someone I think could work with me, trust me this is my issue not yours. I will contact you and share some links to some of my work.
I am NOBODY FAMOUS (YET!)
If you’re NOT EITHER…
ask yourself this…
“DO YOU WANT TO BE?”

Influences
Pink Floyd, David Bowie, KISS, Alice Cooper, Marilyn Manson, Aerosmith, Joan Jett, The Replacements, The Who, The Beatles, Gary Numan, Nine Inch Nails,
My list could go ON and ON... But these are the Main influences in GENERAL of SOUND and SHOW I’m looking for; by no means should this be considered the exclusive list.
Members Of Band
It Was... Me, Myself and I, but now it's JUST ME and I'm looking for NEW people...
Actually I have been working on a Solo Project “Home Recording” type album.
No fanfare please, not as though that is a difficult thing to do now of days, what with computers.
AND… I need some other MEMBERS, to contribute to what I already have, MEMBERS willing to put themselves UP Front or Ride Shot-Gun or in some cases, just sit in the back and look pretty.
Not looking for any STAND-OUT STARS. This is an EVERYBODY Center Stage concept. Well except for my Solo Project work. I really hate trying to write this conceptually in Social Networks. It doesn’t come out right no matter how many words I use. You kind of just have to “Understand”
EQUIPMENT
2 Electric Guitars (Schecter C-1 Apocalypse LE FR - Main/ Gibson - Corvus II), 1 Electric Acoustic Guitar (Martin), 1 Bass (Washburn), 1 (1X10) Randall Practice Amp, 1 Line 6 Pod X3, Shure AXS3 Mic. NOT A WHOLE LOT at the moment?
