    Hi, I'd love to join a band of some type but due to my work commitments i cant really devote the time, and i work most weekends to 7pm so i'm limited to the cork city area.

    but i'm going a bit mad and would like to at least jam with some like minded people.

    i live in a flat so i cant practice in mine!




    bassist experience: playing bass (and a bit of guitar) for close to 20 years now (i'm 36) spent time from 96-2005 in dublin in a couple of original bands, and since then in the midlands in a few cover bands. my playing style is based on phil lynott/cliff burton/justin chancellor (guess what genre i liked as a novice bassist) but can turn my hand to almost any genre and am very open minded music wise. but rock would be my favourite.

    producer experience: have helped friends and bands i'm in record and produce demos and commerical releases. i've been at it long enough to know what sounds good and what doesnt.

    engineering experience: qualified as an engineer in 96, worked in radio mostly but have done a lot of freelance live stuff....im the the type that fights the urge to take over the sound desk at a gig if i think the sound is ****e.


    If the above post comes across as a tad arrogant, then thats because i am. no seriously, ive been around the block enough not to bull**** anyone or tolerate it from anyone.

    willing to jam with anyone who relates with the above post, gender or age doesnt matter.


    bands i cut my musical teeth on:

    metallica
    megadeth
    g'n'r
    pantera
    lizzy
    maiden (to a lesser extent)
    RATM

    bands i love today:

    tool
    a perfect circle
    karnivool
    porcupine tree

    ....and literally tons more. it'd be easier to look through my itunes library!

    gear:
    Musicman stingray 4
    Olp Tony levin 5
    Fender geddy Lee jazz
    Ashdown amp

    And a load of pedals..
