Oh, bugnuts

The guitar player in my band just quit due to lack of enthusiasm.

We were sounding good, too.

Anybody know a guitar player into soul, funk and old-school R&B in the NY metro (western Conecticut) area?

I know how that feels... our keyboard player (and composer of many songs) just left last week.

Currently all I feel is: THE VOID

It sucks. Deeply.

I'm sorry, Andy. I'm feeling what you're feeling, although under somewhat different circumstances. It's a tough pill to swallow when a great gig evaporates for stupid reasons. I'll whine about it with you, even if I can't find you a guitarist, 'kay?

Didn't he know they make beer for that?


Sorry to hear about it, it's always a set back to lose a member of a band.

Sorry to hear - we held on to a guitar player way longer than we wanted to for fear of being without.

I'll share my secret with you:

Craiglist - it worked like a charm for me & the Band!
