Looking for just for fun band/musicians SE London

Axe_meister

Just looking to get together with a few like minded peeps for just a bit of fun.
Have a job+kids so not looking for anything serious.
Play guitar (blues/rock) fairly well and have good gear and transport.
Can groan a backing vocal if need be.

Handsome_Chris

I'm up for it.

Handsome_Chris

Ooo sorry.  London maybe a bit of a trek for me from Salisbury.

Hi,

Im in North London, just a guitarist- no band. But I'm pretty much up for anything. If you wanted to get together on a weekend for jam or some such?

I don't drive unfortunately, but maybe we could meet somewhere inbetween?

Axe_meister

Where abouts in North London are you?

AxeWieldingBastard

Muswell Hill

Axe_meister

I know the area a little.

What sort of music do you play?

Shark_Eyes

I'm in SE London, happy to play bass if required.

Just copied this from my other thread.
Happy to blues it up with u if thats ur thing:

" Heavily influenced by the whole black music scene circa 1950's onwards and all the fruits thereof; british blues (Early Clapton, Fleetwood Mac),  classic rock (Led Zepp, Free) love me some Bowie, Lou Reed and Iggy Pop, The Doors etc.  Huge Van Morrison fan actually. Anything close to the root is good.I'm interested in more contemporary stuff too; grew up with grunge and 90's american rock; love Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Blind Melon, NIN.Recently been listening to Grizzly Bear, Radiohead, Arcade Fire, Alabama Shakes, Ben Howard; the list goes on."

What do u recon?

Axe_meister

Cool. Two guitars and a bass. Can any of you sing? Know any drummers? @shark_eyes where is SE London are you? I'm in Forest Hill.

Shark_Eyes

@Axe_meister I'm in Crystal Palace / Anerley area.

I cannot sing, I can do a passable impression of David Bowie though. I know two drummers, one has 'retired' and the other is in at least two bands. I'll ask anyway.

AxeWieldingBastard

Cant sing really, but its something im working on (trying to write my own material).
I know one drummer, but is far too busy with work most of the time.

Axe_meister

@Shark_eyes just up the road then. I know a drummer but he's only 9 ;0).
I have a small studio in the back of my garden with a cheap electronic drum kit a couple of guitar amps and a guitar/bass rack rig.

Shark_Eyes

@Axe_meister sounds super cool, would it be ok to use your bass rig for practices? I've got a massive 4x10 cabinet that pretty much gives me a hernia from looking at it. It's actually on sale in the classifieds currently.

Axe_meister

Of course. It's a sansamp PSA 1 into a mesa 50/50 power amp into a 2x12.

Shark_Eyes

Great! That sounds lovely!

This still going? I'm also SE London Greenwich/Blackheath way with guitar, amp and wheels. Some reasonable guitar supplemented with enthusiasm and ability to make a mean cuppa.

Hey Lip! We're neighbours (I also live in Greenwich). We should hook up!
