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.

    • Hi Sue, they were not local solicitors. Andrea’s was based in Wales and the other firms involved were large nationwide conveyancing companies (rather than conventional high street solicitors). I’m happy to advise clients and buyers privately on what I believe to be their shortcomings but I don’t think doing so in public on the forum would be appropriate, particularly as they are not locally based. My general advice would always be to steer clear of the big conveyancing companies as they are, in my experience, notoriously difficult to contact when the need arises and the case handler is often not a fully qualified solicitor and so issues have to be referred upwards to “technical teams” internally, which was part of the problem in Andrea’s chain.

    • A slightly vulnerable but hopeful post… Hi everyone, I’m a guy in my mid-thirties who’s recently moved back to London and East Dulwich (I previously lived here for many years before, so I know the area well). But if I’m honest, I’ve found the return a little tough. Most of my close friends have moved out of London to start families — totally understandable — but it’s left me feeling a bit adrift and not quite sure how to make new connections again. Work has taken up a huge chunk of my life in recent years, and I’ve definitely let hobbies, interests and a proper social life fall by the wayside. I feel like I went from a fun social life in my 20’s to suddenly blinking and realising things had gone a bit er…quiet. So, I’m trying to redress the balance a bit — mainly so myself and my partner don’t murder each other 😂, and just to meet some new local faces. I was wondering: is anyone else in a similar boat? And would there be any interest in starting a relaxed, low-key local social group? Could be a casual pub meet, sports, park hangouts, live comedy nights — open to ideas!  I’m happy to do the organising/admin side of things — just wanted to put it out there and see if there’s any appetite. I’ll gauge interest and take it from there.  If you’d prefer not to reply publicly, feel free to drop me a DM.  Cheers all! 👋

    • They are people.  That's how people often behave.
