Re: Any musicians in town?

Calling myself a musician is stretching it a little, but I've sung and played bass in bands and used to write songs. Been here for years and never found an opportunity to jam.

Currently don't have an instrument or amp in CZ but will gladly fix that!

I live almost in the centre and am available pretty much any time.

David

hi dan..

hi dan ,well you were a musician before so you can be one again .i used to be fairly good but then didn't do it for years and now i am getting into it again and am picking it up faster than a beginner.
so if you wanna join us for a chat and pizza at pizzan on saturday you are welcome (i have a lovely bass that i bought but never played so you can have a go on that )but i dont have a bass amp..its about the only thing i dont have ..

Hi there, I wouldn't call

Hi there,

I wouldn't call myself a musician - but let's just say that I did learn how to hold drum sticks and for a period of time I was making use of this skill mainly for fun and to relax. I'm always happy to listen to people jaming though. Been staying in Brno for almost a year now and live pretty much in the down town Brno. I'm having some tentative plans for Sat which will be confirmed (or not) later this week. If I end up staying in Brno I would be glad to join you on Sat if that is ok with you. Please drop me a message on prive and we can exchange phone numbers

Hi there Dee and Gary Sorry

Hi there Dee and Gary

Sorry for not being in touch for so long(Gary) but it´s been quite hectic in the past few days. Finally I have already settled down in Brno(got a job, a flat, blah...blah) but due to this coming season I´ll be a bit busy visitying my in-laws. However, I guess that after Christmas we can all catch up, meet each other and hopefuly play a few tunes. That would be great.

Talk to you soon

Alex

Hey Ho!

Hi there gary, how´s things?

My name is Alex and I´m currently planning to move to Brno with my girlfriend as soon as possible. Still flat-hunting and job-hunting but as soon as I move to Brno I would love to meet for a beer/coffee/curry and obviously for a jam. I play myself guitar and it would be great to meet some other fellow musicians and play a few tunes.

well then, I guess we´ll keep in touch.

Greetings.

Hi Gary, Alex, My name is

Hi Gary, Alex,

My name is Dee and I'm moving from Ireland to Brno at the beginning of January to work and live. I was hoping to meet some musicians also! I have been playing the guitar for years now and done some gigs both in Ireland and abroad, primarily singing and playing solo. Unfortunately I don't play the keyboard but my voice is 110% female Smile. Anyway, if you are both interested in meeting up for a pint when I get over there that'd be great.

Cheers
Dee
