Interested in jamming with others on modern rock originals. I sing and play rhythm guitar. I want to practice at my house in Huntingdon and play out maybe once a month.
Mostly I want to a creative outlet and some other fellas to talk about how awesome our songs are. No one else really needs to ever hear them. Labels are most certainly interested (they aren't, but I just thought I would throw that in there even though it's not true, everyone else advertises that way).
In essence, I'm looking for a couple of fat guys like me to jam every once and awhile and talk about the good old days before we were old, fat, and did not have body-hair sweaters. If you or someone you know is interested, please send them my way.
I have no intention of promoting this band or having it lead to anything else. I will not call and beg you to show up or give you a wakeup call, ever. If we have something planned all week, and you call last minute when everyone is there to say you can't make it, the rest of us will have a nice bar-b-q, and you can come get your stuff off the front lawn at your convenience.
So, to recap, if you are fat, hairy, semi-responsible and a decently mediocre musician such as myself, you are in. Just send a PM. If you look better than me, speak using big words that I don't understand, stare at my wife for more than 5 seconds without looking away, or are more talented than me, your butt is out. Do not bring a music stand to practice and don't talk to me about Vegas.
Thank you for looking.
Disclaimer: This thread is in no way directed at any other specific post on this site. I have not tried out for any other bands here, and have no reason to be bitter...Do not speculate about my intentions. I am, indeed, genuinely searching for musicians with whom to jam.

Thank you to everyone for your interest. The response has been underwhelming. Apparently we have an overabundance of overweight, hairy, sub-par musicians (such as myself) in our area. I'm still sorting through posts, so please bear with me as I wade through your inquiries. In the meantime, I have compiled a list of public responses for those who have taken the time to reply.
Craven, I have a threefold answer for you.
1. A significant portion of the allure of a band is in the chest and back hair. The importance of this hair is second only to the lip moustache.
2. I will not send a picture of my wife (unless you send me one of your wife, then we can talk).
3. My ego says thank you, but your strange curiousity about my wife makes me glad that there is some distance between us.
Keith, secrets don't make friends. Let's keep our dealings out in the open, employing full disclosure.
Bloodsong, thank you. My ego needed that.
Drum-Wolf, until you change your attitude, your application will not be considered. Since when can drummers read? I mean...read music. You can pencil your cheat sheets on napkins and stack them on your knee or duct tape them to your snare, and when you get frothy, you can dry off with them. There will be no music stands in this band, end of discussion.
SkeezerBoy, it's the spirit of the law, not the letter. Don't you read the political posts?
I will answer your PMs in the order in which they were received. Your current wait time is 30 mins.

Hair and drums!
Hairy guy with drums. I would like to be concidered for the position of jamming. I will however check out your wife as I have issues. My only other concern is what key we will be playing in. You know that that makes all the difference to a drummer. Concerned about keys Nate. PS I make killer BBQ RIBS!
