QUOTE (dcz702 @ Mar 10 2013, 10:02 AM)  So I've been playing a few years now and been real serious about improving and learning as much as I can. I have never played in a band and only jamed with other people a couple times. Any suggestions on going about finding people? There is a musicians classified on Craig's list, do you think it would be a good idea to put up a post stating that I would like people who are looking for guitar to send me a list and and take my time to learn the songs before I jump in with people I have never met or played with? How have you guys started your bands? What sort of band would you like to play in, one that does covers or originals? If covers go and watch a few cover bands and you'll get the idea of the songs every single cover band has on their set list, they really don't seem to vary that much in the same Town/City -------------------- My SoundCloud

Hey there man
 I'll answer with a video for you this afternoon - I'm a bit lazy lately and I much prefer talking directly, but in the mean time, please take a look over this thread for some useful info on being in a band: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...showtopic=45797

Let me share my experience. When I was at school, I started the first bands with my friends but it was very difficult to do something really serious. We never got a good singer so we put there the less shy guy. We only rehearsed for the school's end of year event where we used to join the musical competition. I wanted to do something really serious, it was impossible but this give me my first real band experiences. So I mostly focused on becoming better on guitar. I always checked classifieds to see if there was a band searching for guitar players. I finally found a band called "Damnation" which was a project very named in my city that was a mix of Power Metal and Progressive Metal. They where older and experienced musicians so I was sure that I was going to learn a lot by them. I send them a cassette to show my playing (I recorded licks, solos, riffs and some songs) and they ask me for an audition. Playing with experienced guys was the best decision I could take.
