Hi I'm a bassist and I'm available. Please pop punk bands and Emo ******** don't bother me with your ruthless crap. Fact is I want to be in METAL I am so metal I play lead and guitards I'm probably better then you but thats ok as you will be MY rhythm section. Yes I'm lead bass, I play through a Mesa stack (yes mesa anything else is garbage) and my bass is a Alembic 5 string (Alembic the only non pussy boutique manufacturer). All very pricey gear, and of course I have to be good if i play this stuff otherwise i'd be a freaking poseur. Guitards I demand you play BC Rich, Ibanez or Gibson guitars anything else is non metal and for pussies. Drummers have to be good and no less then a 10 piece drum set. This will be MY band and I am the front man. Of course I deserve it as I'm the best bassist in LA. Nobody can touch me. Of course it's metal so we need guitar solo's also guitards if you can't pull off Steve Vai and Dimebag licks don't bother replying.

Of course I sound really arrogant now so as my offer to you I will offer
A) 10% of the chicks I get at gigs ( I get a **** load of hot chicks guitards, Drummer can get the whales)

B) each of you get the spotlight at least once at a gig

C) We jam at my place so no need to annoy your own neighbors

D) Oh and did I mention I have soda, thats right a whole fridge of Soda. BRAND NAME SODA!!!! none of that store brand crap.


My style is Pantera/Dream Theatre/ Vai/ Metallica/ Death. YOU MUST BE METAL
THAT IS NON ****ING NEGOTIABLE!!!!!!!!!!!! METAL!!!

\M/

This is what happens when a lead singer takes a few bass lessons.
