    The guys,I was going to get for River City aren't suitable. The only person I can think of is a pro musician, but I only know him from doing pit band in January. I could get his contact details off a mutual friend if you're stuck, but not sure how up for it he would be, plus he seems to do a lot of shows. But no harm in asking?

  • Your best bet is to hunt one in their natural environment. 

    Go to the old man pubs with only six blokes in. He's the one drinking John Smith's alone in the corner. 

    Lure him with a chew toy full of peanut butter.

    It's about time we started a song list for the 2019 Water Rats bash.

    I shall start the ball rolling then - how have we done this previously? Max of 2 song suggestions for each attendee?

    Hi everyone,

    As you may realise you have been refunded for water rats as Ttony has retired.  sorting between ourselves so nothing in theory changed except we need a drummer.  Can you confirm you are still in so we can arrange the payments again, calculate costings and try and lure a drummer with a chewy toy filled with peanut butter please?

    Usual drummer fee is £100-120

    I can ask mine who came to quad - the distance may be the only issue

  • Missed all this-was busy at work 

    deffo still in but can't help with a drummer as the one in my band is 1-not allowed out at the weekend by his missus and 2-is such a noisy bugger I'd feel bad if he put anyone off playing live

    but in all seriousness-if there is anything I can do to help organise then just shout. Was genuinely looking forward to meeting a few FB members and playing some tunes

    I've started a spreadsheet of those who have said interested and will issue payment details when we are sure we have the numbers.

    Yes still interested.  
    In mybold band we could never keep a drummer. Even canon players never turned up more than twice 

    on the basis of that, you might not even want me to come along with just a guitar :)

    thanks for keeping this one going guys

  • Hi,

    I'm still up for this.  I've asked Paul, the drummer in my band if he would be interested in doing this. He seems up for it but needs to check his diary.

    Paul is a top bloke and a really solid player, he plays in several bands and deps for others so he could easily cope with our needs. (unless someone fancy's doing a tune in 7/8 or weird jazz stuff!).

  • Still up for this if we can get it going again.  I can ask around re: drummers.

    (Oh, and if you could get my '@' tag right so I don't miss anything, that'd be grand!  ;))

    I'm in too.  Between us, we'll be able to get a drummer. Just need to make sure we have a good bowl of Red Bull and some scooby snax at hand.

    I'd still like to do it - just to point out I may play in 7/8 time, but not intentionally!

    Which I think was in turn copied from that of Mr @Bridgehouse in the main thread.  All his fault.

    Actually you can blame Vanilla - as the “@“ signs add too many characters and make it over limit.

     Paul has said that he can do drumming duties if required.  So whoever's running this now, let me know if you want him.

    I've asked digitalscream to move these comments to the main water rats thread as it has hijacked the playlist thread so this may move!

    I have set up a new paypal account just for this (so not to be confused with my guitar fund or spent by missus munckee) can everyone send the money sent back to them for water rats to munckee74@gmail.com please and I will post accounts of money in.
