: I suggest you move somewhere first and THEN
: try and get a band together. You expect
: people to just pick up and follow you
: whereever you go but they have to know you
: first. If you are so concious about your
: image and your talent, then why don't you
: establish yourself somewhere first and then
: fing the musicians and band at the location?
: There are many people out there like you who
: think they are so good and great and have
: lots of hopes and dreams and then find out
: is ain't as easy as you think, no matter
: what your talent level or looks are. I would
: say keep your confidence but tone down your
: cocky attitude and be little more sincere.
: You aren't the only one who has the looks
: and talent, you have to earn your way
: through it all. Maybe if you have a little
: more humility, you will find the people you
: need to trust you and your talent.

: I'm a 29 year old Pro Country
: Singer/Songwiter
: and am looking for a rock out contemporary
: country band. I currently live in NYC where
: there is NO country music. I've been trying
: to put together a band here but have had no
: luck in finding the right musicians. I've
: got my sights set on Nashville but I would
: rather find the right band, anywhere in the
: U.S., who is looking to make music their
: life and career. Since there are very few
: opportunites to build an audience here in NY
: I would like to get out there with a band
: and start building a fan base before making
: that move to Nashville. And that's not to
: say that I'm looking for a band to use and
: then loose. I want to find a dedicated, hard
: working group of people to take this journey
: with. I love the collaborative process when
: creating new music. And I love being on
: stage with a group of people that you can
: trust and count on. I'm 29 years old and
: very image conscious. So I'm looking for
: others in that age range who are also
: concerned with their image. Let's face
: it....it ain't just about the music anymore.
: You've got to look good!
: I know it's going to be hard to find the
: right group so I'm opening myself up to any
: and all areas of the U.S. Location is not as
: important as finding the right group of
: people. I would prefer to find a currently
: gigging band but I'm willing to consider a
: startup if the right mix of people are on
: board. I've got a number of songs written
: and ready to go and I'm happy to supply a
: demo if interested. However I will not
: submit a demo to anyone who doesn't have
: something for me to listen to as well. If
: you haven't recorded anything, then you're
: probably not playing at the level I'm
: looking to be at. The recording doesn't
: necessarily have to be from the current
: project but you should have some experience
: in a studio that I can listen to. Other than
: that, I'm a low key, good guy who just loves
: music and the process of creating it. If you
: think you fit the bill, hit me back and lets
: talk. Hope to hear from ya'll.
