BYOG QLD Jam?

OK, just catching up on the thread. I am a very long term beginner guitarist. I will bring my daughter as my sub for any playing, she far exceeds my skills.
I like your 10 album choices Sonic, never heard of Alice Donut though, will have to look them up.
My musical tastes are generally alternate/indie and rock, bookended by Folk and Jazz. There is a fair bit of Reggae and Funk/Soul mixed in there too.
I won't put up 10 albums (haven't thought that through and too many of them to pick), but FWIW the first Album(s) I ever bought with my own money were KISS Unmasked & Dynasty when I was a young lad in year 5.

They have everything on Spotify, well worth it if you like some of the other stuff I've posted. I keep thinking of bands I didn't include.. Regurgitator, Melniks, Custard, The Melvins, Def Leppard... there's been a lot of musical water under the bridge.

Brisbane here too - I'm interested!

Well based on replies to the thread there's 6 possible participants. I guess we won't need to hire out Suncorp Stadium!

A large rehearsal room might be the go, unless numbers increase radically. I know we have a couple of bass players in the mix, how about drummers? If not, I might be able to wrangle one in just for a jam.
Oh, and what about singers? I sing pretty well, but not looking to be the "lead singer" here. Plus my voice may not suit all songs/genres.

Music-wise I'm sure there's some common ground within the veins of blues and classic rock stuff. Easy enough to fill up a few hours (or more). Of course that can ironed out if/when we get to the point of setting a date.

I'll try and bump this thread along from time to time to keep us all interested.

Not that I'll be going (due to living in Melbourne) but I have had unfortunate experiences with 'rehearsal' venues.
What really bugs me is that to a man, they all miss the point of 'rehearsal' and actually think they are playing a gig.
Once you add a drummer it's 'ear-plugs' all round.

cheers, Mark.

It's be nice to have the option of someone having a bang on the drums, but I really think we are going to be spending most of the time checking out eachothers builds and playing swapsies rather than actually rehearsing.

I can sing some stuff and I can hold a standard rock beat on the drums fine. I agree, 12bar and standard rock stuff is likely to be the easiest thing for everyone to goof around with together.

Done I've cleared it all BD

The 50 PM limit seems a bit harsh given that one uploaded image would be a lot more data to store.

I can maybe wrangle the drummer from my daughters band, Tyde. He also plays for Fat Picnic and a couple of others. Let me see when we get closer to the date.
Keep an eye out for Tyde’s first single in September too.
