Okay, me and Kadarom are starting a band.

We currently have:

Me: Lead Singer and crappy guitarist, moderate piano (I can fake my way on piano)
Kadarom: Lead Bass Guitarist (This is to get around the need for a lead guitar)
Typo Daemon: Drums
Then this guy I work with: DJ - He doesn't know it yet though
lanman1ac: Manager


We are in need of:

Instruments (All of them)
Someone to write songs for us (We'll give you the titles)
A not so crappy guitarist but don't expect to play lead(Guitar is a must, more guitars for us is a major bonus!!!)

-------------
As I said, We already have the titles of our first 3 HIT SINGLES:

Album title:  TNA

1. Jimmy don't get none
2. Jimmy don't want none/Whazzup wit dat?
3. Give it up beeyotch!

-------------
Obviously we are going to go far.  If you want to send us money so we can buy instruments and start practicing on them, that's cool.  Or if you want to get us a major record label deal that's cool too.  Or if you want to join we are auditioning in Texas, so you can come here and we'll see how good you are.  Air fares are great right now.

Hope to hear from you soon!!!!

Oh yeah, we also need a name, taking all suggestions here:

RUBBER BAND!
Oops, not this band :cool:

Anyway AHARDYBOY (I remember the A this time ;)), what kinda songs you guys writing? Hard rock? Techno? Classic (obviously it isn't, unless you guys are mentally retarded) or what?

PS. You guys watched the show "That Thing You Do"? Great show, was filmed in Singapore about 4 years ago, maybe you guys can rise to fame too!

No no no!!!  We don't write the songs.  That's what we want someone else to do.  You want to write the songs UltraD?  I think that we could grease your palm.

As for our style it's techno-aggro-rock, with a reggae twist.

Well, writing music is my profession!  As well as the fact that I`m a guitar teacher.  I tried putting up a site for teaching guitar, but for some reason it got pulled a week after it was put up.

I`ve played guitar in recording studios.  If you send me the lyrics, I can work on the arrangement.

What style of music are you going for?  Tell me what you want it to be like and I`ll do it.

oh, and my mate Rubberhead is also excellent at writing drums.  He does some mad stuff.  Original too.  Theres only one Rubberhead.

didin`t see this at first 'As for our style it's techno-aggro-rock, with a reggae twist'.  Right I can do that, it sounds like what me and rubberhead used to do many years ago.  He used to do the techno aggro type Industrial bits, and I used to do the mad rock guitar.

Rubberhead`s got a site with his stuff on, but I`ve lost the link at the moment.
