I know you guys out there have friends who play, so please help us spread the word and get us a new drummer.


***NOTICE - OUR ALBUM WILL NOT BE DELAYED AS A RESULT OF THIS DEVELOPMENT!!!! ALSO, ALL SHOWS THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE BOOKED WE WILL PERFORM***

Halcyon Way seeks a professional drummer immediately. Our drummer of 5 years has had to leave for personal/family reasons. You must be willing to play shows whenever called upon, be able to rehearse 1-2 times per week, be familiar with odd time signatures, and be able to learn our material cold via CD before rehearsing with us. We have been offered (but have not yet accepted) two record deals, and our debut record is in mixdown as we speak with James Murphy, formerly of Death, Obituary, and Testament. Estimated release time is 1Q 2007. Influences for Halcyon Way include the following bands: In Flames, Dream Theater, Fates Warning, Killswitch Engage, Testament, Megadeth, Rush, Galactic Cowboys, Kings X, Dio, & Nevermore. Our ideal candidate should have the following: Solid meter, Ability to count out odd signatures & play to a click track, Solid double bass chops, Quick learning, Ability to learn the material on their own time, and come to rehearsal ready to throw down, Will be able to play intricate rhythms but also be able to do simple beatdowns when it makes sense, No drugs, drunks, or degenerates, No drama queens, You have to do what you say you're going to do, We rehearse normally on Friday nights in the Snellville, GA area. For more information, email Jon at halcyonwayband@aol.com. You can also learn more about HW at www.myspace.com/halcyonway.

You forgot to mention Corey Hart :lol:

Sorry to hear your drummer has to leave the band; best of luck in your search for a replacement.

Looking forward to seeing you guys next Friday night!!!!!!! :headbang: :kickass:
 
I sent an email to the two drummers I know in the area. One is a progressive metal fan and the other is my sister...

Hopefully they will know someone who is interested...
