Re: Old Farts only....
I'd take you up on it (bass, Upper Hutt and I'd been thinking I wouldn't mind being in an electric blues/roots type band) but I'm going to be KO for the next couple of months.

Re: Old Farts only....
Bump...Surely there has to be some dudes in my vintage looking for a jam to start with and maybe to playing a few gigs, Like I said I'm way out of touch with the Welly scene so any imput help would be appreciated infact being an Aussie who moved here some years ago I know nothing about the local scene, I know I don't have much to offer but it might be fun.
cheers Paul

Re: Old Farts only....
Well chaps I have been asked to join a newly formed band that has a fellow Aussie drummer and 2 locals on guitar and bass, Sorry Vince I will keep you in mind if something else comes along.
it's going to be your classic Rock / Blues covers and a few Originals thrown in, songs like What is and what Should Led Zep, Black Knight Deep Purple, Plush Stone Temple Pilots etc etc, so I am very excited to be playing again, nothing like getting together with a bunch of slighter more mature aging rockers with lots of tall tales from the road you know? so I will keep you guys posted and maybe get to meet some of you chaps at a local gig huh,
so know comes the bloody hard part learning 30-40 songs EGAD.... A little hard for someone with the attention span of a 10 year old wish me luck.

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.
