where you at anon?
can'f find anyone to jam with

>>69748568
Yep. Unless your first intention is to be a live band, this would be your best possible route. Its more convenient and allows you to have complete creative control. Just use a daw or a tape track and layer

this, I responded to a cl ad looking to complete a band and they ended up being /mu/ types, you never know if you don't try

If you live in ny and you play the bass or drums let me know.

Go to house shows. It's a great environment to find other musicians also looking to start bands. Just start talking about an artist you want to sound like and if they sound interested in them ask if they play an intrument (many play multiple) and ask if they want to start a project.

I used to have a full band till one member decided he wanted to do post-hardcore, two wanted to do metal, then last guy and I wanted to do something different. Pretty weird how they all just disappeared considering this was in high school.

Get very drunk and go to some gig in a local underground bar
