Direct Link To This Post Topic: New PA project
    Posted: August 08 2009 at 19:14
I want to start a PA project with as many instruments I can find, for a massive, full sound, which will be very raw. Everything will be user-made, no prepared songs, no prepared album covers, no prepared line-up, I will just do what I think is right, when I can.
 
I play the guitar, bass, drums, and basic piano. I play the flute a little, but I'm gonna learn it so I will improve and will be able to contribute to this. Please read the line-up before applying, as I don't want 15 oboes, 32 guitars, and 5645969045 drummers.
 
Wanted line-up:
2-3 guitarists, rich sound like the Wishbone Ash harmonies.
1 drummer, I don't want it to be like those annoying 2 drummer bands.
1 bassist, again, I dont want a lot of people in my project playing the same instrument.
2-6 vocalists, the 1st being the lead male singer, and the 2nd preferrably female, for a distinct sound. The rest will provide harmonies.
1 keyboardist, preferrably someone who has a Hammond organ, a Moog, or a Wurlitzer.
1 flautist, will probably me.
1 oboe player, if there are any in here...
 
 
More instruments to come..

How about Coverdale-esque vocals, but without Coverdale's vocal range? Wink

Good luck finding an oboe player who can play in tune.

I can play mouth-guitar pretty well, however very used to do wah-wah solos, some pretty cool mouth-drums, though not very good on smooth things or time signatures, and as for mouth-bass, I can rock with it, just like John Entwistle.

I refuse to play anything, but I could make unpleasant sounds with my laptop or read silly poems with a monotonic voice.

(I'm also a rather brilliant singer. Approve)

Do you have anything sketched out musically? I find this group-grope thing fascinating. Do share.

yep you should show your ideas, outakes, sheet music, etc...

I wouldn't join a band I don't like or participate on a project I don't know
But now my branches suffer
And my leaves don't bear the glow
They did so long ago

Some questions:
1) Do you plan to do some rehearsals? If "yes", I guess you're looking for musicians located in the same area than you.

2) "No prepared songs"? Do you mean you want to create the songs with the future musicians?

3) "No prepared line-up"?

I can MAYBE do bass (I'm not that good) and I can MAYBE do some sort of vocals (again, not that good).
