I'm a guitarist / frontman looking for a good bass player and drummer. Here's what to expect...

I've been playing for 20 years but only know a few chords. But I'll still tell the bass player and drummer they aren't real musician since they don't know the secret three power chords that I do.

I'll constantly tell the bass player he's too loud. Any sound that takes any focus away from my over the top, monotonous shredding solos (also known as basic scales) will not be tolerated.

Every time I lose the beat I'll blame the drummer. Even though I never practice with a metronome and the drummer has thousands and thousands of hours playing to a metronome, I'll still do it. Even though the bass player and drummer were locked in, that just proves you both have no sense of time. Even though the drummer can play 4 independent lines of complex broken 32nd note polyrythms at 200 bpm, it's still his fault I can't stay locked in playing a single line of eighth notes at 90 bpm.

The drunker I get the better I think I play. If you don't agree with me and even think about suggesting that my drinking might be affecting my playing I'll kick you out of MY BAND so fast it will make your non-musician head spin.

So as long as you know your place, do what I say, realize that as the guitarist I am intrinsically better and the only real musician we'll get along just fine.

Hoping this is tongue in cheek...
