Unfortunately JMB is very much like internet dating, in which you have to sift through a swimming pool of crap to extract the pearls. There will be a lot of messages that don't go anywhere after the first few back and forth's, and even fewer that go past the talking stage.
I'm always happy to meet other musicians, even if it's just to jam or go to jam nights so if you get some spare time and want to head into Leeds or something just let me know!
Cheers
Compared to one I started with my friend, practice every week for a year, play a gig and it's decent. Book another gig but 2 members go awol. Eventually they resurface and they've forgotten all the songs. Book a practice and its like they forgot how to play their instruments. Practice every week again for a year, play another gig and the same repeats.
Pounding bass, one of those snare drums that makes a "ping" noise, guitar through a Smokey then straight into the PA, distorted vocals... And the whole mix sidechained to the kick drum. Maybe with a saxophone.
Would listen.
Most recently when I tried it, I had one eye on my day job company seemingly losing clients all over the place and was thinking of ways to enhance my piano hustle income should the worst happen. I got two people come back who were keen, one of which was a Rolling Stones tribute who needed a keys player and another who wanted to play "folk rock" from the 70s and 80s. I'm afraid I did end up going quiet after a few messages as neither was really interesting to me, but then eventually felt so bad about it that i sent a way too long oversharing message back about why and apologising.
So hopefully I'm only a mild headache, the kind you get from squinting for too long that's easily resolved by resting your eyes for half an hour.
I know I'm annoying and those two messaging me also think I'm a complete knobhead or at the very least a total wet wipe, but unfortunately they will have to join the crowds of other people who also think I'm annoying

Starting to think it’s me…
I've seen a lot of crap over the years. It's gotten worse this last 15-20 since those Simon Cowell shows.
