SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums.ABOUT
Multi-board style player; high energy, good backing vocals and some leads; perfect pitch. Looking to start or join an 80's band with a mix of pop and rock; high energy total performance show with some original medleys including a 10 minute-10 song Pat Benetar medley, and a few other surprises. Set list currently includes, Genesis, REO Speedwagon, Madonna, Night Ranger, KISS, Wang Chung, Rick AStley, Scandal, Cyndi Lauper, Lionel Richie, Kenny Loggins, Van Halen, Phil Collins, Europe and way more. Looking for both male and female lead vocalists (and if either can play guitars, that's a bonus!) to take advantage of duets and increase the breadth of music and improve the quality of vocal harmonies. The end goal is to take advantage of the fact that majority of the folks seeing live music currently are in the Generation X age group, plus proximity to live venues in Wisconsin Dells and some of my contacts in the Milwaukee area potentially. Well, that's not the END goal. The END goal is to have a sh!t-ton of fun while making people dance until they pass out.
