I really want to join or start a band, preferably start so I can have more input. I just want to put my lyric, bass and other music ideas to practice. It is very frustrating at the moment because my bass skill level is about a 6.5 out of 10.
I have pretty good fingering and I'm alright at plucking and using a pick. I'm pretty ok at playing other peoples music, but I can't really write my own bass lines (riffs yes) without other music around me. So, I jam with myself, I put on some music and listen in one headphone and write a new bass riff and pretend I'm the singer.
The other annoying thing about from my mediocrity at my instrument is the either amazing or horrible musical skill level around me. Play with crap people and it's bad, good people and it's really awkward because you get left out if you're shit. I need some semi-decent people who can play instruments.
Is that you? No? Shit, thought you used to play guitar? Oh, ok, that was the other (your name here).
I WANT TO EXPRESS MYSELF!
Band name ideas:
Quilt
Giant Squid
Good Day Sunshine
Meth Lab for Cutie
Guache
The Lennon/McCartney's
etc.
If that doesn't work out I can always go back to my job in the porn industry.

I've never heard Good Day Sunshine. It has a real ring to it. Don't forget Gauche, I'm so there.
ReplyDeletei like quilt. given the derivatives of the other names, where does this one come from?
ReplyDeleteI thought quilt would be a cool name for a cover band, get it, quilt cover. :)
