New Band in Doha...?

Manfo
By Manfo

Me: Aussie guy, 40yo (just), been learning guitar for a couple of years and can put a few songs together, want to form band and jam for fun, learn, build a set and who knows....

You: Drums, bass, singer all needed, maybe even lead guitar! Guys or girls fine but ideally similar age to me and Aussie / Brit / Kiwi etc. Enthusiasm a must but no pros or shredders!

The band: Four / five piece covering Lenny, Oasis, Powderfinger, Nirvana, Muse etc plus some old skool / classic rock etc. Maybe even develop some originals!

The challenge: time, rehersal area, skill!!!!

Post back to me and lets see what happens.

Cheers
Manfo

Hi!

I'm not Aussie or Kiwi but I do respect music irrespective religion and color. I love rock n' rolls (eric elapton, led zepplin, stepenwolf, bad compan, etc) and do play music some time. Please let me if there is any space where I can jam up for fun, learn, build a set with you

currently I'm having acoustic guitar with me.

Looking forward.

Hi Manfo, I'm a year now in Doha, bored and looking for a band too.. My band used to really ROCK manila clubs but that was a long long time ago.. 30 years, can play guitars, bass, and vocals (little drums and keyboard). Genre: Blues, Jazz Rock, Alternative and even some old school rock n' roll. from Beatles to Incubus and everything in between. I write my own music too. Let me know if you still got space for me. Cheers mate!

May not be an issue. What do you do?

By Manfo• 3 May 2011 20:28
Manfo

Wanna try to...?

Blues is cool - jazz (love it) but harder to play - so far!

What age group are you? Happy to have you along as long as you don't make us play Britney! or old Elvis numbers (either way).

I used to sing in a band back in the day, but I'm not Aussie, Brit, nor Kiwi etc. I'm a smelly, head-shaking Indian :-P

My mate started a band, it's called 999Mb - they don't have a gig yet!

Good luck with the band. Look forward to hearing you
