Hey, if you're happy with that Vince, more power to you. I did clearly state the reasoning behind my comments.Vince wrote:Well, Ok... I *have* played with Frey and hey, if you're going to worry about whether he has a car or not, that's your loss. I was fine with driving in to see him.
And you guys all seem to have 394,573,204 different guitars each, I'm sure you can lend him a project guitar or a beater of some sort.
He's a fucking good player, if you're going to worry about details, that's your loss.
I'm picking there's a story here - worth a share? Not being nosy but might better explain the situation (cause it sounds like you have gear, just not with you at the moment?). Also genre, musical interest, intent (just socially having a bash, looking to form a band, wanting to play out etc?).Frey wrote:Hey guys, anyone want to play some music? I'm in glen eden and don't have a car but there's always the trainy wainy to hop on.
Don't have my electric stuff but might be getting it pretty soon.
Anyone keen for a jam?
Frey started a thread a few weeks ago, he's moved up to the big smoke of Glen Eden from Nelson (or moved down, I grew up in Nelson, live in Glen Eden, not sure which way I'd class it). I would assume he's just got himself here and yet to sort out the finer details of Auckland living, such as a car, getting his gear here, finding his way around, etc.null_pointer wrote:I'm picking there's a story here - worth a share?

Yeah I'm just getting settled in so obviously I have more pressing priorities than rock and/or roll. With a bit of luck I'll be getting my stuff in a couple of weeks (dad going down with van). Just need to take my amp for a visit to a tech and get a couple of bits and bobs for my pedalboard and I'll be away. Hell I might even get a new electric because hey why not right.The Scarecrow wrote:Hope you can find someone to have a jam with Frey, but speaking from the perspective of someone who's had to recruit for guitarists and vocalists in the last couple of years more than once, I would be hard pressed to even consider doing anything with someone who a. doesn't have gear b. doesn't have their own transport. Obviously, everyone's situation is different but it's kinda like saying, "let's play Playstation" and only having the console without a controller or game.
Obviously you're probably getting your gear sorted soon from what you say, so I hope you find some collaborators. I'm probably jaded after dealing with so many people who wanted to play guitar for my band, only to be told "oh, I don't have an amp/guitar" after talking up a storm.
Personally, marketing one's self as a 'loser' guitar player isn't going to inspire a great rush of offers
