Maybe the Grammy artist they opened for was Milli Vanilli

Someone should show up with a bunch of eighties gear (Steinberger, THOSE pants, crazy shades, etc) and every time they ask if you know a song, say "no, but I can play Girls on Film!"

I don't give a damm about band members politics, unless they are Nazis

I don't really care too much what by bandmates politics are as long as they don't drag it out all the time. It sounds like this band is defined by their political views and disdain for anyone in another camp, otherwise why bring it up in an ad.

I don't give a damn about other band members politics either. But it has absolutely no place in interpersonal band member relations and damn sure has no place on stage in front of an audience. If we can't agree to disagree on personal politics and leave it at that (or better yet just plain leave it the F alone to begin with) it's a total non starter. Some of my best friends and I are diametrically opposed politically. We agree to disagree, we don't bring it up EVER, not a problem.

At least you know where they're coming from before you waste time answering their ad. Good to know who the jerkweasles are up front.

"Jerkweasel" Ya! Ain't heard that here in a while!

Yeah, that's better. Believe me, I am not picking on Girls on Film - that bass line is awesome.

 

[JMacBass65]

What city are you in? It might be fun to troll these guys.

I think we should.

 

[Kevin1960]

I think we should.

I agree.

My response to their ad... "Do you have pro gear?"

 

[Old Garage-Bander]

If they're that big and known (and with all that exposure how can they not be) all they'd need to do is drop word they're looking to hire and there'd already be a line outside their door. No need for CL at all.

I'm not calling BS. But there definitely seems to be a little resumé polishing going on here

Also, they need to look up what "AKA" represents. It's not another way to say "in other words" which is what I think they might have been trying to say.

And "snowflake?" Seriously? And the Grateful Dead being country? Wow ! Who knew?

If The Dead is country then count me in. My mostest favoritest country band jus' gotta be Country Joe and the Fish.
"Gimme an F..."

More Craigslist "pros".

+1! Great moment in American music history that Woodstock performance. Whoopie! We're all gonna die!!!!

 

[dtripoli]

I don't know, ad sounds fine to me.
It's down and dirty country and snowflakes or Maddow devotees need not apply.
Makes sense.

RELEASE THE HOUNDS

 

[Mike Sorr]

Sounds like either the gig from heaven ... or hell. Depends upon how full of #@$!%!#^!# they are.

Maybe something like this?

 

[gln1955]

Another thing. Why do they care about their new bass player not living 45 minutes away. Around here it's not unusual at all for band members to drive that far and we're not talking big city traffic either. Just sounds pretty controlling or just clueless.

Clueless. Sounds like a "band of buddies".

Yea, I believe AKA is mainly used to refer to someone's aliases.

Oh, and the GD do have a few country flavored tunes, especially if counting solo or side band projects ... but they're certainly a weird example of Country.

 

[itsalljustaride]

Since when did "snowflake" become a slur? Isn't that what they call themselves?

No.

Thick skin IS very important no matter what

Who says?

Maybe had a bad situation with a band member not making rehearsals because of the drive.
