Bored Drummer/Bassist/Guitarist Available for Shows (Hudson)

Ahoy -

I play drums (expert), bass (expert), guitar (electric, acoustic and 12-string - middlin' to expert), sing lead and backup (baritone/low tenor) and play middlin' rock keyboards...

And I'm bored, and I'm looking for gigs. I learn *very* quickly, and have free time during the day to do homework and learn material. I'm 46 and have been around the block a time or two, have decent gear and reliable transportation. I'm very comfortable in most rock styles (with leanings toward jazz and prog). Improvisation, vamping and extemporisation are no problem either.

I'm looking for the usual sub gigs, and would also be open to backing up solo acts (vocal/guitar, etc.) on a regular basis. Anything that doesn't require too much rehearsal.

I'm afraid I've been at this too long to give my time away for nothing, but I'll work *very* cheap as long as the work is fun. And I have a pretty wide definition of "fun." :) Perfectly normal music is fine, and perfectly strange is fine, too.

Here's a recent recording on which I played everything, to provide some bonafides: https://soundcloud.com/petezolli/suite-in-kc-king-crimson-cover

Get in touch if I can be of help to you. And you can help me by relieving my boredom by giving me work. :) • Location: Hudson

Sticker-covered bass has a broken jawn at the bottom as pictured. 15 or best offer.

I must confess, this does look like a sweet deal to me. It looks like one of those mint-condition heavily stickered limited edition Aria Pro II's - man are they hard to come by! And I've seen 'em go for up to $25, so I could make a killing here, even if it isn't perfect.

But I am worried about the broken jawn, though. It might be tough to source an original Aria jawn in good condition. Maybe I'd need to think hard about a completely new set of jawns? But a complete re-jawning might be a little too much for me to handle, and might effect the tone. What do you think? Anyone know of a really good re-jawnist? I heard Jaco once used a jawnless bass - can anyone confirm?

And what's the best jawn for metal anyway?
 
Aside from asking almost $200 more than you could buy one new, there's nothing really dumb about this ad, but it gave me a chuckle.

DOPEST FEMALE RAPPER IN PHILLY/BETTER THAN EMINEM (ALL PHILA.)

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

"Hello! My name is Gia Medley and I believe there is no female lyricist on the planet on my level. I need exposure and radio play NOW. Im ready to take over hip hop. Listen to these 2 freestyles and download my mixtape 100 Bars for free. You can find all my other videos on Youtube. Subscribe and like me on facebook!!"

Here is a small sample of her lyrics:
"Flows got em swimming
Choked in one sitting
Hoes got em knitting
Track suits when I'm sprinting
On the track like a villain
On a crack epidemic
Smack fools when I'm spitting
Like a roach full of venom
They approach me I'm hitting
People poke me I'm pooping
On their facebook
If they probe me I'm killing
I'm staged crook
In a robe like I'm chillin
I'm a stay shook
Feed I'm whole penicillin"
