[quote name='JamesBass' timestamp='1384124797' post='2273137'] So I've been in and out of bands now since pretty much day 1 of picking up a bass over 10 years ago now. The first few were your typical teenage lets make a lot of noise trying to replicate our favourite songs played badly! But as time went on and I learnt more and more I began to find better musicians to form bands with, however I've never had the luck of doing more than 25 gigs in a band, mostly over 2 or 3 years. Every band I've been in hasn't had anyone who has kids or a mortgage etc. but NEVER takes off!? Since the age of 14/15 I've always made certain, that my bands aren't cover bands, I despise playing someone else's music live and for a payment, I just don't like it, I have fun and enjoy playing the songs but just not live, it's just not me at all. I'm very creative and produce songs like clockwork, which is exactly what I want to be doing, expect with a band who are as serious as myself, as determined to make the most of a good thing and really push it on and try to make it our major source of income. Perhaps I'm too pushy or determined? Maybe I'm just a bad judge of character musically? I just don't know, all I know is, I want a band, I want a band who write and record and gig and allow me to have a creative outlet and some great fun with some good people. Rant over. [/quote] Round where I live if you don't play 'the cheesy run of the mill covers' you'll not gig very often.....if it's the pub circuit your doing??? play covers my friend....I know you said you despise this but after many years and many bands this is all the average punter wants....they want a few beers and maybe a dance to something they know....If your after making it great I wish you all the best....Cheers Bob.
