Merry making through music…

Hi fellow SHCians

Presently, we have a singer (yours sincerely), a guitar soloist, and a guitar rhythmist who is able to double as bassist or drummer. We intend to form a musical band to jam one or twice a week between Mondays to Fridays. Band equipment is already in place but venue will be decided and confirmed later.

We are looking for a bassist, a drummer, a keyboard person and last but not least, a female vocalist. If you are retired, able to make a commitment and keen to participate, please contact the undernamed at email: joncoxin@hotmail.com for further discussion.

Cheers…

  1. Hello Jonson,

    Read with interest regarding a female vocalist. Would certainly give it a go (subject to acceptance by your band) but, alas, I am all the way in HK!!

    Anyways, good luck and have fun. Hope to drop by when you guys are jamming.

  2. Hi Johson,

    It’s very nice to know you are forming a band; and enjoying your retirement activities. When you have the place, you should tell us where you will be jamming; and perhaps we can also come and sample your kind of music.

    I have always been very inquisitive about singers and band groups, I don’t mean the pros. One does not have to be pro to get on stage. But, with the right music, place and crowd, the singer and the band can attract a listening audience and fun environment.

    Besides your recruitment of the other team members, how ready are you and your band? I look forward to hearing you place soon.

  3. Hi Jonson,

    I’ve time but no talent – so cannot audition for any of the vacancies in your band. But if you need an audience, I can perform that role + be the tea lady when I’m there. How’s that?

    Hope to see your band take off soon. Best wishes.

    Cheers,

  4. Hi Jonson,

  5. Hi Jasmine
    Thks for your honesty in respect to talent. Sure, if we should jam at a public location, we will very much like to have your company.

    Cheers..

  6. Hi Terence

    Your encouring comments are much appreciated. Thks.

    Currently, we already have a band group and are jamming at a private residence of the band leader, once a week. Some of this band group are in full time emplyment. Therefore, there is a constriant to our achieving our planned numerous aims.

    We intend to form a seperate band band group of retirees. This will provide us a freer hand to attain much more higher levels as planned.

    I shall kept you posted of developments.

    Cheers

  7. Hi Lydia
    You probably have misread the meaning of my posting. But no harm done. I would like to clarify that we are, presently, on the look out for a versatile female vocalist to sing with our band group on a committed basis. Therefore, your kind understanding on the matter is greatly appreciated. Thks for interest and support.
    Cheers…
