Hey, I've been playing bass now for close to 12 years, but for the past several of those it has been in a fairly creatively-stunted, albeit condusive to improving my skills, kind of environment, and I'm really getting back into doing something original and fun, with the aim of recording and performing live.

I am already involved with Spencer Lillo's Black Orchid Rebellion band project, but I'm also interested in finding some other things to do with my talent / time / equipment

A part of me would really like to join up with an established band who maybe is newly sans-bassist, as I'd like to avoid starting from scratch if possible (though if the right group of people came along I'd be willing). I am totally willing to learn and play songs that are already there, but I also have my own style and creativity to add, and I'd like to be a part of something that is open to that.

Musically, I am really interested in good, heavy / ambient rock, preferably with an electronic edge to it -- bands that inspire me musically include stuff like Muse, Coldplay, Skillet, Econoline Crush, U2, Thousand Foot Krutch, Celldweller, Gravity Kills, Pitchshifter, Portishead, God Lives Underwater, and a lot of other stuff like that.. not that I want to be a clone, but ya know.

On a personal note, I am a Christian, and I think it would be cool to hook up with other Christians, though I am NOT a religous Christian, and I'm not at all interested in being your morality monitor, so please don't peg me as such. If you're curious about my religious and politcal views you're welcome to read through my blog - http://saintday.blogspot.com for an idea as to my personality and beliefs. In any case I'm not easy to offend.

If you think your band could use me, drop me a line, or reply in here, thanks! - Mon, 1 Jan 2007 12:57pm

I think there is something weird with my screen, as on the main message board page it says the last post in seeking musicians was today at 12:15, but when I actually come in here it says January 2. grr.

Anyway, I am also into playing harder, more industrial style rock or metal as well, as long as the vocals are melodic and not screaming, at least not too much screaming. - Thu, 4 Jan 2007 1:57pm
