I am an amateur keyboardist that's getting better every day by teaching MYSELF and just getting down and jammin!! I composed my own keyboard music at 16 years and want to start a band to get vocals, guitars, drums, bass, and anything else. I need help on how to find other musicians who would want to "get going" with a pretty good player working hard to get a band going, any good ad sites that can help me? Been to postaroo.com, know any others? Play anything to begin with.

Hi,
I live in VA. am 64 yrs old, play the guitar some, some piano, drums, and a mouth harp.
But, I've never tried starting up a band. Here is a link with some good pointers if you wish to view it:

You need to find someone in your own local area to begin with. Maybe the two of you start getting together. Tried using any of the local chat rooms, asking around?
Also, might think about putting an ad in your local paper, asking for anyone interested.
I do wish you the best of luck.
