SisterAbdullahX Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Just had a call from a bandleader I used to work for offering me a month in a 5 star hotel in Eilat, Israel, starting 19th April. He isn't the bandleader for this particular band but said he would ask all the bass players he used to use in his band to try and fill the gig. He is looking for someone on a full time basis to cover all their UK gigs as well, do it is a permanent post. I don't know much about what they do over here but I have done the Eilat gig 4 times with other bands. It's in a pub attached to a 5 star hotel. Accommodation is in the hotel, all very nice, all meals, laundry, drink allocation etc included. PA and back line included too so only bass required. I enjoyed my times over there a lot. Would also have to add that some of the ladies in that part of the world are stunning! I can't do it as I have work and family commitments but if anyone is interested drop me a pm and I'll forward all details on. Cheers.

thumperbob 2002 Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I did this gig many years ago. Had a great time. Hanging around with some pretty amazing New York musicians. It was the Eilat jazz festival at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
