Just for fun rock band

Portland OR

Description

I'm a guitarist looking to form a no-frills, hang out and play rock band. I don't care if we ever do gigs, this is a way for players to get together and have fun. Just a "dad band" of 30s+ musicians opening beverages and riffing on songs they like. Musicians who used to have dreams of stardom and now have careers, families, and other things in life that took priority. I'm thinking all cover songs or jams, but we can play something original if a member wants to try something out. Don't be intimidated if you're rusty or just an amateur. The idea is to have fun. I have played guitar for 20 years off and on. I'm decent, but I've been working on structured lessons lately to better my technique. I've got a Line 6 Floor Pod that lets me emulate just about any guitar sound. I can sing... adequately. But I truly miss just jamming. Musically, I'll take on anything as long as I can keep up, or it pushes me to practice and get better. My memorized catalog is mostly 90s tunes from my childhood, but I don't care whether I stay in that comfort zone. I figure there's a spot for a drummer, a bassist, another guitarist, a vocalist, or anyone who wants to fill multiple roles. Bring maracas, a tambourine, a harmonica, whatever speaks to you. Let's just play some tunes and see what happens.
