Hey you. Yeah, you..

Do you like Joy Division? I do.

I want to start a Joy Division cover band (NO, not because "Control" was just released in theaters..)

I normally sing but since Ian Curtis has a unique voice and I'm a girl, I don't want to sing, I want to play bass. Deal.

So, drummer, vocalist dude, and I don't know if I need a guitarist.. probably not (Chris darling?)..

I just want to jam a few times, maybe play one show just for fun... This is all really just for the love of playing music. Hey maybe we could start a New Order cover band afterwards....

No..

Anyways since my last post with almost 50,000 views kinda died (R.I.P) uhh I'd like to see how this goes!

Love,

it's funny because I have a low voice and this is pretty much the only style I can sing in. I love joy division but I am really uncomfortable with the idea of a cover band. still, I could be into some jams if it's just a casual idea. who knows. - Thu, 29 Nov 2007 1:39am Edited: Thu, 29 Nov 2007 1:40am

I am totally down for this... joy division has been one of my favourite bands for years and i have actually wanted to do this for awhile. I play guitar and have gear, but I am not the greatest guitar player...but i'd be down for giving it a shot. My email is [email protected] - Thu, 29 Nov 2007 11:37pm

Aidan my friend, don't be a poop, it just so happens the movie came out this month... It was a good movie too...

Tyler, this is a casual idea. I don't care about playing a show much, it's more about just playing some JD for the fun of it. Hey if you think you've got the voice for it then go for it.

xBuddyx I'll let you know if there will be a guitar needed, since you're really into Joy Division which is a plus. No pressure on guitar playing ability since this is a "fun" thing.

Chris darling, major hypocracy. You better be getting some sleep tonight so you don't have to rest on my "Ikea pillows" while watching COPS. Ps-

"Delivering constant suction- VRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!" haaahaha


I'm so glad to see some interest in this post. Thank you!

Did this little project die? If not, I'd be interested. Guitar, bass or drums, take your pick. (I even used to own a skin black leather tie.) - Fri, 14 Dec 2007 7:20pm

You can forget about me as a Joy Division singer but you can't forget about me as a person! I'm kind of like one of the ghosts in Ultima Underworld on the 7th level with yellow glowy eyes... don't forget me... I'm just guarding my tomb from the freaky gray goblins and such. Uh, what? I see you all the time so I might say hi or something. - Sun, 23 Dec 2007 5:22am

Someone sent me a really stupid email, it kind of turned me off of this whole idea... I'm having trouble getting a hold of a bass anyways for some reason. Start a cover band without me if anyone's really interested since I don't have a bass yet.... bad idea.. maybe I should've posted when I got a hold of one... OOPS oh well. If I finally get my friend's bass within this week I'll be more than happy to jam with some peeeeeooppplllee. - Fri, 4 Jan 2008 1:16pm

I've been begging my friend but I don't know what her deal is. If someone here would lend me one that would be nice but I don't think that's going to happen? Badoobadoop - Sun, 6 Jan 2008 12:49pm

Hi, I'd be interested in trying some bass or vocals, I'm in the same register as Ian Curtis and my accent is kinda similar, I also play guitar and would even lend a bass if required. Look up my user info if you're interested. Cheers. - Sun, 6 Jan 2008 2:44pm Edited: Sun, 6 Jan 2008 2:46pm
