I won't post the first batch until I get a number of them; that way no one has to be the first up. Seriously jump in...even if you just kind-of want to.
If you live in Charlotte, NC and want to start a cool new band, or if you're already playing out and want to add members just send an email to knkbands (at) gmail (dot) com
Please include: 1. Your first name 2. What kind of band you want to start (can be a pretty loose idea, just give something to go on) 3. Any instruments you play or want to play or what you're looking to add 4. Some bands you like (no need to try and be cool)
This will happen: 1. We'll post it up. 2. People interested in jamming with you can post a comment, but all comments must be approved by us. No ridicule or BS allowed. 3. If you see somebody you want to jam with just tell us who it is via email knkbands (at) gmail (dot) com and we'll pass along your email info to the other person.
Things to keep in mind
-Playing in a band is fun. You don't have to 'make it' to have a real blast.
-You're never too old or too young to start playing.
-Don't know how to play anything? Start now, with anything. Get a tambourine, bang two rocks together, chant.
-Many interesting bands got great not by skill but by enthusiasm and simple idea development.
-Always put emphasis on the songs rather than technicality. Don't get bogged down creatively by trying to WOW.
-If your songs suck, keep working on it. They'll come around.
-Don't know how to book shows or promote your band? No sweat. If things get going we'll dish out pointers.
-Listen to as much music as possible and focus on expanding your horizon.
