Musicians in ul.

Junco Partner

Hey guys I'm a 1st MMPT student in ul. I play guitar( Rhythm) and was wondering if anyone was up for jamming and see where things lead from there.

Moved to UL.

If no one from UL gets back to you then, if you like, the thread can be moved back to Bands & Musicians and we can edit the thread title to reflect the Limerick area.

Jagle

there is other people in your course who play music instruments, the dmd course, and the music soc...

Junco Partner

i know but most of them have their own groups.

What bands are you into? I've been dying to get into a proper band since I've started. I play bass for an acoustic group but I've been meaning to get into something else as well.

Junco Partner

well my top 25 most listened to on the ipod contains the clash ramones ratm the boss greenday paolo elvis costello the blink offspring specials and foos etc
i'm into literally everything i like music rather than genres . i'll play anything except maybe metal too many solos haha

J_E

That works. I can play guitar, bass, or keys, or bits and bobs of anything else. I'm up for having a jam, maybe we can get a drummer or something sorted. This is what I'd be aiming for personally but I'm happy as long as we can make something that sounds good. I'm a first year too

Is the music soc not to your taste? I think they've set up loads of bands before.

Junco Partner

My only gripe with the music soc is how solely focused they are on just rock music. I was really hoping there would be more of an electronic scene. I guess the DJ soc would be a better place to look there. (And I'm not talking generic club music, good proper electronic music.)

Junco Partner

you do have a point i guess its mostly rock bands formed in it but it's not as if its resisted by the society a band could play anything from country to dubstep and the society would have them in gigs

Only issue there is that I don't own a bass. Think outside the box, I could do an -1 octave guitar or bass synth. Something a bit different, you know?

Oh god no! Totally don't want to go down that route haha. I was thinking more Battles or something. I've got a keyboard which I normally use as a MIDI controller for Ableton. Lots of great sounds.

OhMSGlive

Hey Foggy, you need keys?

Nockz

Someone say keys? Lol. Must be a lot more than I thought I'm self taught for about 5-6 years now and have a taste in music a bit on the other end of the spectrum to you guys

Just thought I'd show some keys lovin' in here.
