Anyone wanna joing our band :D?



Right well this is going to be a cheery one. Ha. Theres the cheer :|. Im not paticularly in a bad mood. Its been a lovely day really..
Its just the fact that i have just realized that my band truly are terrible and that the one tiny glimmer of shining hope we had.. I think it was just put out with a torrential downpour. So to make things a little clearer..
About a month ago.. I was aproached in the street (literally in the street no word of a lie!) by someone i could only imagine must be on some sort of outrageous dare that clearly went wrong. Majorly. As i actually complied haha. Anyway carrying on, a girl approached me about my guitar (which i was carrying because i just had a lesson in town) and asked me if i wanted to be in a band. I agreed and willingly gave out my mobile number to her. A complete stranger. And then arranged to meet up. Looking back it does seem a little stupid. But thats beside the point. We met up. And well.. sort of jammed. Badly.. But it was all good fun. Bassist, drummer and me. We'll call the loonie who approached me red. And my drummer eiffle. (code names.. You'd understand if you met them;)) So we learned one song. Maybe two.. Went through about four singers. Then i was informed of the fact that we have two gigs coming up for hour sets. Not a good thing for us as we are truly terible. Eiffle keeps telling we are going to be fine at these gigs. I'm all like.. HELLO! WE KNOW ONE SONG! We've been bumbling along okay. Not really learning anything. And the first gig is in about three weeks. I am praying for a miracle.. Broken wrist would do.. So today. We meet up for a practise. And i am told that we are meeting the band that plays after us. We go to there amazing "Rock basement" which is actually under an estate agent.. (makes you wonder what they get up to huh?) And they totally rock. Like there amazing. Sitting there rocking out, our jaws drop.. and we're left like.. oooh.. And then they say.. "So shall we all jam?" This dreaded line. I think i must of gone white. I mean i could not sit playing my menial guitar after watching somone who has either been playing his entire life or has some mega talent.. The others clearly got the message so we sort of wriggled out of it and watched them continue there set.. So aftrer we leave their basement/loveden ;), we walk away the truth dawning on how terrible we really are. I mean i know this must be the third time we have said this/ But it's also the truth. And to top it all off, (we still have no singer btw) They are considering, dropping the whole only girl band idea and gettting in a couple of guy guitarist.. And guess who they want to sing? Oh yes. Yours truly Miss Jess M, (got a ring to it :P) I know nothing about singing. So. I think that really this whole band thing has been a nice experiance, but we really are best off as.. Gig goers rather then gig players. So please do not expect us to be playing anywhere near you. Anytime soon.
Yours faithfully Jessy,
P.s anyone wanna join? :P.
