Guitarist looking to start Metallica tribute band

Akron OH

Description

It says it all in the title. I'm looking to start a tribute act to book gigs to make some decent side cash and just have fun playing songs of Metallica live. Im trying to make it a semi authentic experience. I'm not saying that you'll literally have to look like any of the members but I want to try to get 4 members (including myself) that all vaguely look like we could be in an 80s thrash band. Long hair, the look of the time, ya know. Think of just cosplaying an 80s thrash dude haha. You should be at least 21 but no older then like early to mid 30s. I don't care if you're male, female, or whatever. I'm looking to keep this tribute to just the golden age of Metallica. I love all of the album's post Load/ReLoad but I want to keep to an older experience of Metallica. Just the first 5 albums. If we can decide on a good 12 to 20 song setlist I think we could we start booking soon. Everyone is excited to go to shows again and I think a lot of people will really want to see even some tribute bands live because it's been so long. I don't have a space to jam right now but I'm sure if we find the right people we can find a good one. I'm looking for a drummer, bassist, and singer/guitarist for authenticity sake. If this interests you email me and we'll go from there! I'm thinking I want to name this act either Through the Never or the Call of Ktulu but we can discuss another name too. Ps. Obviously a Metallica tribute band isn't political but I'm a socialist so no cops, no racists, homophobes, transphobes, etc. I don't want to be in a tribute band with some qanon antivaccine trump people. Please do not email me just to argue politics. If you're a decent person who wants to play some Metallica songs email me and let's get something going!
