Austin Texas Variety/Cover Band looking for Bass Player

I have to step down due to family but these are a great group of guys. I've been with them since 2002 and they are looking for somebody with experience and vocals. Have pro equipment and use in ear monitors on stage. Just thought I'd give some of you local Austin guys a heads up.

WORKING COVER BAND SEEKS BASS PLAYER

Right now we are booked every weekend until mid August. Majority of them are both Friday and Saturday night. It would help if you lived in North Austin or Cedar Park as that is where everyone (except me) lives. It would help to have road cases for your equipment as well.

Wow, sounds like a lot of fun, and I live right up that area. Problem is that I can't yet commit to a schedule like this. Maybe in a few years. Free bump!

Is your band still looking for someone? I just left my band and I'm looking for a gig. I've played with lots of cover bands over the years all across the country. I sing both harmony and lead as well as run sound. Hit me up if its still available or if you know of someone else needing a bassist.

I believe they are not only looking for a bassist but now a male vocalist. The drummer is handling all of this through the Craigslist ad so it is out of my hands. Probably going to have to get both on board starting in early June.
