Yes, I am still technically available - but if this [i]is[/i] the Sleaze Sisters gig, I've done a bit of research and it doesn't sound like my cup of decaf. Sorry![/quote] Never heard of the sleaze sisters to be honest, we actually filled our bass slot a month ago but a couple of us are planning a blues/jazz side project which we aim to gig only once or twice a month and thought that might be something that would suit your availability?

[quote name='Conan' post='1016196' date='Nov 8 2010, 12:43 PM']How often do you gig? How long are you planning to give the new bassist to learn the set? How many tracks are in the set? Do you play pubs or clubs? Any original material? Etc, etc. I may well be interested - but would need to know a bit more![/quote] Hello, sorry but I've only just noticed your reply...are you still available? We are an established covers band playing a wide variety of venues

Popular working band URGENTLY require a professional standard, grooving bass player with the ability to sing close harmonies. The band covers many genres and so needs a versatile player with ability, knowledge and background experience that allows him/her to switch effortlessly between a variety of playing styles....definitely not a plectrum rock gig All work is paid, gig venues are varied - mostly in the North East but some travelling required. Obviously own transport and pro equipment are essential here. Please get in touch asap with contact details for more info

Bass player required immediately by the Emerald Thieves...must be experienced, reliable and available to start early September. Good gear and transport are essential, lead/harmony vocals would be a major plus.

We are a paying cover band playing a wide variety of gigs.....Absolutely no time wasters please. Cheers
