Hi folks,

My name is Miguel. I'm early 30s. Employed full-time, take two night classes for an advanced degree.
I have limited time for playing, but I love to when I get the chance.
I want to start something on Thursday evenings.

I'm thinking start at 9:00 PM EST Thursday nights after kids are in bed (like I said, I have other demands).

I have about 40 DLC including free ones. I can 5 star and 95+ any song so far in medium. I have recently started to push into hard. Some songs welcome me with open arms, others just laugh hysterically at me and I just think, "I'll be back and then we'll see who's laughing then."

I would welcome anyone who can commit to the day and time and not flake. I know life happens and it easily takes priority over a video game. I won't be a Nazi about it, but we'll be counting on band members to show up and jam together on the mutually agreed upon day and time.

My motivation is to have a good time, play better, help others play better and get to know some fake plastic rockers out there.

I can hold my own equally in all instruments, but here are my preferences:

1) Vocals
2) Tie: Lead/Drums
3) Bass

I want this to be no more than a weekly 1-2 hour commitment. I may get on and play weekend nights, but I can't commit to more than one night a week at this time.

Our first meeting would be to jam together and see how we fit together.

You can check out some musical taste details in my profile. I dig pretty much everything except country (although there are exceptions). I am partial to No Doubt (that DLC cannot come fast enough), U2, ColdPlay, Foo Fighters, John Legend, Joss Stone, Alicia Keys, Shakira, and too many more to list.

If this sounds interesting to you, then please respond and add as friend.

I am on Skype as "Zoologic0" and we can share mobile/home phones if you are interested in chatting before/between/after sessions.

First post, first served, and will go down the list from there.

Thanks.

I'd be interested in this. I'm usually free Thursdays nights until pretty late as I have no class/work that day. I'm on the west coast so 9pm EST would be 6pm PST for me.

I usually play Expert Vox, but I can also play expert bass or drums on hard. I'll add you the next time I'm online, my FC is in my sig.

Hi Andrew, how's the vocal-izing going?
And I think I could make it on a regular basis provided I don't have a life (whazzat?) to look out for. I could practice my drumming as well with you guys.

Thursdays 6PM PST is like...9PM EST so it's vunderful.

I don't think I'll be able to make the 9pm get together tonight, I have a dinner I need to attend. I will be on later and throughout the weekend so feel free to invite me.

Next week Thurs should be no problem though.

I was on, but only saw Andrewx7 and sent an invite with no response.
I played until super late (2:00 AM), for me at least.

I use Skype for messaging. I will send you my cell through PM.

I'll be on tonight zoo, but I have a nasty cold so I probably won't be on Vox.

Awesome, I want to be on Vox.
See you closer to 10 (finishing up some homework and kids late going to bed).
Thanks for responding.

Well I got on and I Saw Ryxor and PREDICATE and sent invites.
I saw PREDICATE was also sending me invites.
No matter what I did I got the 'Can't join current session" error.

That was so frustrating.

I tried messing with my router settings and I coudl not get connected to anyone.
What the heck do I need to do to get this thing to work?
