welcome to the forum dood.
'cuba' street is a good giveaway, but might pay to mention 'wellington' in the ad too

Re: Joining a band
My workmate put an ad up on the rockshop website when he was looking for a band, got tons of enquiries, gotta be the best option I reckon!

Re: Joining a band
Hit the notice board at Real Groovy, heaps of ads there. Since you're already (probably) busking on Cuba St, it's not too far to travel

Re: Joining a band
I have found almost all my bands through or at least assisted by the rockshop classifieds. It's pretty basic (Dave, how about an upgrade on that part of the site fella??) but that's where everyone goes!
