Are you a bassist or drummer who is wants to play in a relaxed, flexible and casual atmosphere? Do you have a few spare hours a week to devote to music?

You may very well be in luck!

I am a 25 year-old singer/songwriter who has been performing solo for a few years. I�ve also played bass in various bands including: petty forward thought, ECTO-ONE, WROUGHT: ironsmile, Missiles to Heaven, Jackie and the Reckless Abandon and (most recently) Ghosts as their tour bassist.

I�m looking to find some musicians to collaborate with and play shows in Victoria and the lower mainland. I�ve got to be honest however. This isn�t going to be our meal ticket. I�ve got a day-job and a family and I am not looking to make a million bucks writing the next number one hit. If we manage to break even and sell a few CDs, I�m happy.

My influences include: Bruce Springsteen, Damien Jurado, Pete Yorn, Coldplay, Death Cab for Cutie, Jimmy Eat World (their early stuff), Foo Fighters, Bob Dylan and more.

What I�ve got: A van, a jam space (though its current status is kind of in limbo), my own gear, an extensive back-catalogue of songs and some spare time a couple of evenings a week to work on music.

What you have: A genuine love of music, a casual outlook, a good harness of your instrument, your own reliable gear and a willingness to work on music simply because you love it.

If you�re already in a band and are looking to maybe use this opportunity to hone your skills or vary your influences, by all means drop me a line. Essentially, I�m not some crazed nutjob who expects cultic devotion just because we play music together.

I welcome your comments and questions. You can check out my website at http://www.seanrthomas.com or you can email me at [email protected] - Wed, 16 Apr 2003 4:49pm
Anonymous does casual mean that you get to sit around and smoke weed all the time? - Sun, 20 Apr 2003 3:29pm

Ouch! My email server died while I was out of town and I lost a whole ton of email! My old bassist is back in the thick of things and the position is filled. I apologize to anyone who responded to my ad via email but hasn't received a response yet (due to the above-mentioned email server death) because I don't have your email addresses. I apologize for the inconvenience.

I'll be out of town for a couple of weeks, but if anyone has any questions, they can email me at [email protected] and I'll check it as much as I can.

Again, sorry to those who haven't received word about their responses.

Hi,

As childish as it is to get involved in slagging my fellow musicians. But whoever it is that said what they did about me and didn`t have the guts to address their email to me well can FUCK RIGHT OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Have you ever thought maybe I have this funny thing called a JOB and just enjoy jamming with people in my spare time when i have time.

Thanx,

Mike S. - Thu, 5 Jun 2003 2:25pm
