ABOUT

"MR TICKLE " - OUR VERY OWN ROCK COVER BAND

Now Looking for our new Lead & Rhythm Guitarist.

Someone with musicality and some personality.

We want to have some fun.

We're predominantly based in Inner East Melb, all existing members don't mind to travel to most locations to rehearse or gig......

Looking to lock in some regular rehearsals with a view to refining our pre-existing set list and to be actively gigging over the next few months.

Currently, looking for New Guitarist.

Current set list is about 35 songs....most of them have been well sorted.

We'd like to rehearse every 1 - 2 weeks at least.

If this sounds like you or you'd like a copy of the set list, please get in touch or send me an email to: phil@boom-media.com.au

Influences

THE GOOD STUFF - THAT EVERYBODY KNOWS!

Classic Rock - Foo Fighters, Nirvana, Grunge Era, Typical 90's and 2000's American influences. Rocky, Loud, Fun!

Linkin Park, The Offspring, Blink 182, Green Day, Rage Against the Machine, Creed, Blur, Radiohead, Metallica.

Throw in some Aussie classic and Pub Favuorites too. Silverchair, Jet, Powderfinger ... you get the drill.

No horrible Shania Twain renditions, Tina Turner Cover Bands, Jessies Girl or Summer of 69. No Eagles, No Beatles, Credence, No Rolling Stones, ABBA, No Simon and Garfunkel, Fleetwood Mac, Folk Music, Techno, Hip Hop, Rap, Jazz Fusion, retro art funk bullshit - Just NO. If this brief doesnt workj for you....dont apply.

No starry eyed, "lets write some originals and get famous".

NO !

Newsflash - No One Cares ! If you're 40 and still havent made it, you probably never will. Thats fine.

Don't want to know about your mix of Soul inspired Chakra Healing Frequeny resonating vibes that will spread love and joy through this damaged planet.

If you mention ancestral trauma, Anxiety Disorders will give you more PTSD to worry about!

No originals, B side songs from unheard of Triple JJJ top 1000 nobody's ever heard of classics....not interested.

IT HAS TO BE SONGS THAT HAVE CHARTED -

SO THAT IN A GIG ENVIRONMENT - EVERYBODY KNOWS THESE SONGS.

If that's not your thing...it's fine - we're probably not the right fit for you.

If you just happen to play in 9 other bands, on the side, also - please dont apply.

We find that when you split yourself across too many things, you do neither very well.

Its like having 4 x Girlfriends at the same time, it's fun, hectic but always ends in tears.

if you're involved in numerous bands and still havent "found what you're looking for" after all these years - it's probably not your other band mates that are the issue - it's probably YOU !

You're not misunderstood, too talented or better than everyone else - you're just a self absorbed pain in the ass with unresolved personality disorder issues....so best not to apply.

We're just a bunch of middle aged, established, semi professional guys, that just wanna rock and have fun.

** PS - I hope this bio at least had made you giggle...

Drop us a message if that sounds like you.
