Not looking to give up the day job? Me neither.


I don't want to get signed, or go on tour, or play the usual toilet venues - I'm looking to join or start a band to write a few songs, have a few beers, and maybe do some local gigs.


I play guitar and/or keyboards, and I need to get back into playing music again, but without taking it too seriously.


Whether it's a full band, or just a couple of people strumming acoustic guitars, I'd like to have fun playing music.


In terms of style, I'd like to do something that sits somewhere in the space between this lot:


the Stones, the Band, the Clash, Mogwai, Massive Attack, the Pixies, the Clash, the Small Faces, Spiritualized, the Cure, the Lemonheads, the MGs, My Bloody Valentine, and Neil Young.


Quite a big space, I know...


If you're interested, please send me a message.

Malcomio - if you get desperate, I fit into the "LITTLE talent but no ambition" bracket.

I have the balls to get up and play and do so, but theres little 'talent'.

My stylees are punk, ska, gospel, old-time/hillbilly, new wave, blues, if I had to pigeonhole them.

I have no discernable talent and hardly any ambition, so that's me out.


But I'm happy to lend a hand in creating that 'first gig in Camden' feel by standing motionless five feet from you as you play, slowly sipping a pint of beer occasionally shaking my head if your timing goes slightly out.

    • You could try asking  ChatGPT? Give it the information you have posted here, and ask for suggestions in your preferred geographical areas (eg South and Central London, or whatever). It recently saved me hours when I was looking to see if there was a cheaper  energy tariff for my usage, and it  gave me other very useful relevant  information. I've also used it for several other things, and it has been eye openingly helpful. ETA: I know there are various issues around AI, so please if forum members are reading this and want to discuss them (I don't), don't do it on this thread!  
    • Yes it would be easier, and I give a lot to the hospice shops, but for various reasons there are certain things I prefer to give to Oxfam. However I might go through the books and see if some could be donated more locally. I think in any charity shop staffed by volunteers, the reception you get must depend on the member of staff. The Oxfam bookshop have always been very happy when I've taken shedloads of books there in the past. On the other hand, I've taken things to the hospice shop that were received very grumpily when they hadn't even looked in the bag or asked what they were. It felt like I was being a nuisance and causing them more work. I don't remember a previous thread on here  about the Oxfam shop and parking, but that's possibly because it wasn't relevant to me at the time.
