Well i gotta say, pretty happy about the response, i was hoping for alot of people doing backup vocals so we can have some epic shouting choruses/anthem songs! I already have another guy who's looking at doing lead vocals, so I figure we should have a day where we meet up and figure out who wants to do what. I have a friend who plays bass who might be into playing, if not I have a bass at home i could bring out for andrew to play if ur up to it. I have a drum kit too, so I just need to find someone to play it now.. lets keep the responses coming! - Thu, 26 Jul 2007 10:32pm

id still need a bass amp and honestly..couldnt afford it with my payments on the marshall head that i have at the moment............and my car....................dont want to be a burden/hassle on anyone. but if its all good im still into it...just yea..i understand what its like when soem12 doesnt have gear and it is lame but i guess if everything works it qworks and if it doesnt it doesnt.

Get this band started!

I'd love to see something like this in Vic. When I was little I used to listen to The Pogues and the Chieftans, and even Altan....

Hell yes I'm part Irish, and I've been to Ireland too :) Saw many bombed-out stores... and had machine guns pointed at me a couple times even though I was just 6.. woo!

But yeah ummm good luck with this. - Tue, 31 Jul 2007 1:34pm

So because some previous band was a total disaster you want to tell these guys to quit what they want to do? I don't know you, I have no qualms with you, but seriously- fuck off.
Hey Noah, Gimme a month and we'll see if I am feeling the itch for some Irish punk bass...Clare's still working me into the genre. - Tue, 31 Jul 2007 8:34pm
