We are an old-school style punk rock band in its infancy looking for a drummer. We're all in the 17-20 age-range, and so we're wanting someone around that area (it certainly isn't manditory, though). We have a vocalist/lyricist (me), a lead guitarist, a rhythm guitarist, and a bassist.

A few of our influences are the Sex Pistols, Dead Kennedys, the Damned (later albums, mostly), the Misfits, Anti-Nowhere League, the Exploited (mostly the first two albums), and a bit of the Stranglers' stuff. Fairly cliche list, we know, but we aren't flakes, or anything like that. We want to toy with all kinds of things within the realms of punk-rock (sans the modern pop-punk garbage), so we need someone who is somewhat diverse. Generally, however, we're going for a hardcore sound most of the time, so someone who specializes in playing fast would be ideal, but it would help if you could also play other styles. Also, a lot of our lyrics are satirical, and dark-humor oriented, so it'd help if you had a sense of humor. On that lyrical note, we might throw in something a bit more Misfits/metal sounding, as well.

Finally, NO DRUGS! We've had two drummers who were into that shit, and we aren't dealing with it anymore. Repeat, NO DRUGS! No exceptions. Also, if you drink, do it on your own time.

Anyways, if you're interested, e-mail me. =)

I'm a female guitarist/vocalist looking for a vocalist/guitarist to form a duo to play the retirement and assisted living homes. I've played them before playing 1940's standards, but now I'd like to revisit them playing mid-1950's rock n roll (Everly Bros, Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison etc.) and 1950's country (Conway Twitty, George Jones, Patsy Cline etc.) From experience I've had requests for these artists and the residents are of the age when these artists were popular...plus I'd have a blast playing them. I'm not a great vocalist but a sufficient one. My strength is lead guitar. So I prefer someone who has the chops vocally and can play some adequate rhythm guitar. Male or female, I don't care. These gigs would be mainly during the weekday and usually are only 45 mins- 1 hr long. And the pay is good. Thanks for reading.

Because they are so amazing, we're forming a Minus The Bear tribute band. I'm Taylor, I'll be playing drums, and, unless we find someone, doing vocals, and Cody will be playing lead guitar. We're both in another band full time, and have no qualms about you being in another either, so this will be a laid back, meet every other week or so-type side project; however, don't let that fool you. We will work just as hard on the songs when we get together. What we need are are a vocalist/guitarist, bassist, and keyboardist/synth player. It's important to us that you are a big MTB fan. We want to work with people that will work hard to make sure the songs sound as close to perfect as possible. We practice in New Caney every other Wednesday, though the day is open to discussion depending on everyone's schedule. We'd like to try and play somewhere by New Year's if possible, though it all depends on how quickly we can get a line-up finalized. You can either e-mail me or give me a call at (281) 318-9270 if you're interested. Cheers!

As a vocalist and lyricist, I'd like to connect and collaborate with musicians interested in creating a music project. I have a small collection of songs written. I am open to doing acoustic, jazz, rock sound. I admire some of the following bands.

Lenny Kravitz
Coldplay
Keane
U2
White Stripes
Cindy Blackman (drummer of Lenny)
Norah Jones
Cranberries
