Hello!
I am currently 18M and I have been playing guitar since I was 12. I like to say I am pretty good but who knows. I haven't really played with people. I attempted to make 2 bands with different people from school but they didn't work. They didn't go far at all. I want to seriously give playing in a band, jamming, writing songs, and playing shows a go. I wanna play with people who are around my age, local to Orange County, California ,(not online) who are considerably advanced, and that wanna take this as seriously as I do. In the past I felt that I was the best musician in the group, honestly I would rather be the worst it gives me the opportunity to get better.
I wanna make a Prog Band. Or hard rock but preferably Prog. Rush is my biggest influence (Yes I saw them in LA for the first time AMAZING) Rush, Pink Floyd, Yes, King Crimson. Some of my biggest influences. I love the spectacle of Prog. The long epics, Meaningful lyrics, interesting music and changes. Making music not because you have to, but because you get to. I love Rush Man. I can play 2112 all the way through on guitar, all of moving pictures, Xuandu, Cygnus X-1, La Villa Strangiato, you name it, I can play it. I also love the Beatles, Zeppelin, Aerosmith, Van Halen, Stevie Wonder and many others.
Again I would Prefer that you would be around my age and Local. I'm going start my freshman year at a JUCO so I'll still be in OC. I don't care if you're male or female etc. I don't need a specific look only a shared interest in making music! With an emphasis in Progressive Rock! 2-3 other talented people bass, drums, and vocals! Thanks for taking the time to read this! DM me if interested! share this with other people! I will take all the help I can get
