Since about mid march i've tried to get a band started in wagga. More specifically a punk-rock/Punk Band, as i've noticed that Wagga has metal (and pretty fucking good metal at that!!!!) and alternative bands (hit and miss with these guys, DuckPuppy is pretty decent, others are just there.)
So i've decided to get off my arse and get something going for punks who might actually do something besides covers in a garage.
I'm a bass player, and i've found 3 guitarists who are keen.
THe first guy, Patrick, One is a metal/thrash dude, who will be pretty decent, fast player and i think he'll be pretty sweet and will help me complete my master plan.
The other dude, Issac, is a 17 year old kid. he's been away, returning next week. I'm a little unsure as he's wanting to sing and play and to be honest the final guitarist has said that he'll only be singing... so i'll have to make sure that this guy knows he'll be mainly playing.
That said, if the kids half as good as he is keen to play, it'll work out just fine.
The thrid guy, Luke, Is actually the trumpet player in a local Ska Band, Just Like Josiah. He approached me one night (i live with some of the players from JLJ and Duckpuppy) and blantly said that he wanted in... The guy is a man after my own heart, so i told him that he'll have a spot - luckily i've been told he's an awesome singer and guitarist - he's like the Australian El Hefe'.
And thats it as far as the "band" is concerned at the moment... we still need to find a drummer as i'm on the 4 string, but thankfully people know people, so it may be filled before too long - I HOPE.
