First of all I apologise for hijacking your drummers forum. I'm not a drummer (although I did buy an electronic kit earlier this year and begin lessons). My problem is that I'm looking for a drummer for my band who are based near Manchester, UK and I'm running short of inspiration as all my pleas so far have fallen on deaf ears.
I've been on loads of websites such as JoinMyBand.co.uk and BandMix.co.uk even using paid subscriptions in order to improve the visibility of my ad, but you rhythmical fellows seem to be quite an elusive bunch or, as I suspect, I'm perhaps not looking in the right place.
So sitting at my desk and at my wits' end, I thought that the best place to try to attract a drummer might be a place where drummers hang out. So here I am and if I'm committing some terrible faux pas by being here, then again I apologise, but a band's got to have a drummer and nothing else has worked so far.
Anyway, we're Cinic and we rehearse in Stockport near Manchester, UK. We're a guitar/keys based alternative rock band (for want of a better description) and we've got 10-12 decent songs ready to hit stages with and many more in the pipeline just as soon as we recruit a drummer.
In the last few days we've started generating interest from promoters (I'm not sure how significant this is just yet, but its certainly not a bad thing).
Age is unimportant but we're all young-looking (and devilishly handsome) late 30s - early 40s but talent, attitude and personality and what counts.
Our website is www.cinic.co.uk and on there are songs, videos, info, contact details and links to Soundcloud and YouTube.
Any sort of feedback would be much appreciated from "f**k off" through "Try this website" to "I'll be your drummer!"
Thanks for reading
