I can't believe this... With every passing day, I am moving one step closer to having my own dysfunctional rock'n'roll band going. I've decided to, no matter how things turn out next Friday, just go with the Bassist I jammed with back in May. The synergy was there and our styles are, despite different sources of inspiration, highly compatible. What's more to ask for? Now, I also have a drummer who's interested in at least giving it a shot as well! All that's left is to find a time and place (we already have one great option, somewhat centered between our locations), and then we can go ahead and play some rock!

Now, we just need to meet up, play together and find a singer and possibly an extra guitarist or a keyboardist (I'm voting keys for the sake of more variation). I really can't sing, and even if I could, my extreme preference towards being able to move around while playing would make it incredibly stupid to make me the lead singer.

Anyway, I'm hoping things will work out with the Bassist and drummer. By now, I'm starting to see the other bassist I'll be playing with on Friday as yet another one-time thing... Of course, the possibility of being in two different bands at the same time is still a viable outcome, which is worth taking into consideration...
