JPKALLIO.COM looking for a second guitar player.

   In the past few months I haven't really talked much about what's going on with JPKALLIO.COM. Well, lot of stuff has gone down... But here we go.
    So the first bit of the news. Some of you might have been wondering what has been going on with us as we haven't played any concerts for few months. Over the Christmas Tomeks life once again turned upside down as his father had a stroke. So for the most part of the new year Tomek spent by his fathers side in the hospital. His father never recovered from the stroke and last week passed away. This has been a very tough time for Tomek and his family and we decided to keep this to private until his father was put to rest. These are sad events, that unfortunately are part of life, whether we like it or not. Our thoughts are with Tomeks family.
    But I had a chance to catch up with him earlier on the week, and now Tomek is more determined than ever to just get back on his feet and back playing. So you will hear lot more from us in the coming months. The fact is that life has to go on, and that's just what Tomek is going to do with the rest of the band standing strong by his side. That's what being in a band is also about, it is your second family and you stick together through thick and thin. So now we are back rehearsing and bag full of new songs on the way.
    Speaking of new songs here's another bit of news for you and bit more positive: Due to the wildly imaginative side of J.P.s brain having difficulties sticking to simple restrictions, he has ended up writing lots of new songs with two guitar parts. This has left JPKALLIO.COM in a bit of a pickle. After extensive look in to stem cell research and cloning, it turns out that J.P. can not grow another set of hands... So we have no other option than to look for a second guitar player for JPKALLIO.COM. So we are looking for another mad rocker.
They must be:
1. Based in Dublin
2. In possession of their own equipment
3. Aged roughly between 30-40
4. Willing to rehearse two to three times a week, weekday mornings (Yeah we know, pain in the hole...)
5. We take our little band very seriously, so we would expect you to do the same
6.We all have years of experience in music, so we would expect the suitable candidate have experience playing in bands, gigging, recording and organizing all the usual band stuff as a team.
We put lot of weight on finding the right person for this band and if some one just seems to fit the bill extremely well, we can overlook some of the above points. We are not looking for the fastest shredder/ guitar hero, but a solid player with a good understanding of what JPKALLIO.COM is about. Interested? So here is what you'll do: Send an email to jpkallio@hotmail.com, or contact J.P. through his personal facebook page: www.facebook.com/jp.kallio1 Tell us a bit about your self, if you have any tracks or video of you playing, would be great, but not compulsory. Then we'll get you to jam with us. And after all the candidates have had their go, we'll make a decision.
So if you, or some one you know might be interested, get in contact. We wanna hear from you:-)
   J.P.
