Hard Rock/Metal Band Looking for Vocalist
...You must be able to practice three times a week. Saturday, Tues and Wednesday,
usually from 8-10pm (We all have jobs so it varies every now and again.)
Also we split the cost evenly, comes out to $8 a piece....
Gotta love LA craigslist..
3 days a week is pushing it, these people never heard of woodshedding?
Besides, I ain't feeling the "hard rock" vibe from a guitarist shredding on what appears to be his daughter's Hello Kitty Squier.

We always have to pay extra for the room with the heavy bag and BBQ grill/smoker...
I always assumed it was just fair and polite to split the cost evenly...or am I in the minority? Do some bands break up the price in proportion to who's making the most noise?
I saved this one as I thought it was one of the better ones.....
I will be paying top notch members for a new band in (Pittsburgh)

First, let me start with You are going to be paid regardless if we are in the basement or on stage, it just so happens when we reach that level, your payscale will increase exponentially.
you want in? you will hear me when you come down and sign the contract ---
I am the singer and will be forming a band I do not want any pros, NOR do I want any teenagers under 21 ( SORRY ), pros are usually happy with what they got and impossible to work with and not looking for a band change, and teens? well I don't hate you all but there will obviously be a lot of 21 and over venues to play so sorry twinks, your OUT .....
#1 we will not sound like anything around here already. <<<< YES CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT!!!?!!!
#2 I will not take just anyone because I have lot's of cash and I am willing to PAY people to be in my band. <<<< I'll bet you never had that happen before????
#3 the band will start the tour once we get 75 songs down. Should take what?...2-3 weeks maximum right?
#4 I am paying 50.00 cash money at the end of each and every practice to any members who join my band, and a minimum of 300.00 to play in any gig I book
#5 Because of the financial issues, I must have you sign a contract to make this a REAL-DEAL PROVIDED I LIKE YOU, and you will never have to play a freebee gig again.
#6 If you are afraid of contracts, and what responsibility you must achieve after putting your John Hancock on it, THEN DON'T REPLY
if you are sitting in the garage, or in a go-nowhere "sell tickets/pay to play" band I have the golden opportunity for you to show off your talent!!!!
p.s. I am not a psycho, nor am I a ****** trying to get people to come over to jam because I am bored. I have an insurance settlement from my last job that has almost 100k in the bank for me to blow on my first love..... MUSIC!!!!!
some might think I'm trying to "BUY MY WAY INTO creating a #1 BAND" ....well perhaps so, but when I am done I will be in the next band that will be touring all over the world on MY expense....how many of you lame ****head Pittsburghers who are out of work would jump at a paying gig??...let's see... ok raise your hands...yep that's what I thought 52,049 of you already.....
GREAT!!!!

I'm moving to Arlington, Virginia in late October/ early November. I was convinced that I'd be doing it on my own, but I might find someone crazy enough to try it!
Of those who ask to come with, I expect you to be able to take care of half or your share. We would work together as a band under my name, and live together. I can provide more details if you are interested.
This ad is the most unusual way of a gay guy to ask for a sleeping partner I ever saw.
Get the guy to come with you so there is no chance in hell of him being able to leave, then BOINK him while he is sleeping from a drug induced coma?
BRILLIANT!!!
( well unless the fellow musician is also gay, then that would work out perfectly without the drugs )

Kitchen Grease in Pickle Jars (Philadelphia)
Not sure if anyone would be interested but I've got like 5 jars of grease built up over many fryings of bacon and other random meals in my kitchen over the past year or so.
I'm thinking someone with a bio-diesel engine might be find this post useful.
E-mail to arrange for pick up near Philadelphia Museum of Art.

What do you mean? Isn't that is an original SUB Stingray? They made SUB Sterlings too, both made in the USA. Are you hung up on what they are now marketing as SUB's which come from the far east?
Totally legit ad there, I'd buy it!
+1 That is a good deal.
I saw one like that sell in 3 days at a music store for $699
I hate that MM has ruined the SUB name by putting it on their new cheap basses.
The USA SUB's were the best bang for the buck bass made.
I'm going to jump on this one!

I see that quite often lately, especially with Sterlings. I often wonder if these idiots really think people won't research the value before making an offer.
