    I'm currently looking for one. Like you, punk is the popular music where I live, and I'm defenitely not looking for a punk band...

    When you here this sound a-comin',
    Hear the drummers drumming,
    I want you to join together with the band,
    We don't move in any particular direction,
    And we don't make no collections,
    I want you to join together with the band.

    Do you really think I care,
    What you read or what you wear,
    I want you to join together with the band,
    There's a million ways to laugh,
    And every one's a path,
    Come on and join together with the band.

    Everybody join together, I want you to join together,
    Come on and join together with the band,
    We need you to join together, come on and join together,
    Come on and join together with the band.

    You don't have to play,
    You can follow or lead the way,
    I want you to join together with the band,
    We don't know where we're going,
    But the season's right for knowing,
    I want you to join together with the band.

    It's the singer not the song,
    That makes the music move along,
    I want you to join together with the band,
    This is the biggest band you'll find,
    It's as deep as it is wide,
    Come on and join together with the band,
    Hey hey hey hey hey hey, well everybody come on.

    Come on and join, join together with the band,
    We need you to join together, everybody come on,
    Hey hey hey, join together with the band.

    im in a band, i play drums. you guys would prolly call us punk. you really shouldnt close your minds so damn much. listen to some sex pistols, dead milkmen, patti smith, pixies, buzzcocks, the damned, the bussiness, and i dont know if you posers no this, but the who were the original punk band anyway. so dont knock what you know nothing about.

    I dont see what the fucks so wrong with punk bands, if yall love music so much play in one of those if you have nowhere else to play.

    I was in a gigging band for 2 years, boy it was a blast!! But since the lead guitarist was my boyfriend, I got kicked out when I dumped him...sux.
    Anyways, I'm looking to start an all female band. I play bass, my sis plays keys...I have a few guitarists on hand, but I can't find a drummer!! I've posted at guitar center, put ads in Relix. Grrr...It's very frustrating...I wanna play out!

    The basic crapola is simple... it's sort of like the whole grunge craze except there was more to it as you modernized. It's not very complex. Sure, if certain genres weren't there there would be nothing else today to build a foundation upon and continue on... I see it not being hugely meaningful. Sure, I like all music, but I'd never sufface myself to play with a band just because I have nowhere else to play. Nowwwwww... if I were to actually join a band (which I have been in the process of doing for three months now but have been a little off track) it would depend. I taught someone in my tech lab class last year how to do some guitar tech work and I'm going to do sound tech work and EQing for him... I'm not really into the same stuff he's into though, but it's worth a shot.

    There is your problem. Going to guitar center is sort of like going to Toys R Us.

    been taking guitar for a few months, would like to be in a band some time, dont think i would be a cover or gig band, it wouldnt be to difficult to get into a band here, but i'd want to start a band of my own, with a more folk rock genre, like kansas and tull; speaking of which also hope to take up the flute soon
