Us. . .
We are an established Pearl Jam tribute band (The Lost Dogs) seeking an experienced bassist who lives in the NYC area to replace our former bassist, who has recently moved out of the city. We're a group of guys in our late 20s and early 30s who play regularly on weekends around NYC and NJ. We care about showing up on time, rehearsing well, and sounding good, but we don't take ourselves too seriously.
We practice once every two or three weeks at Ultrasound in Manhattan (30th and 8th).

You are. . .
1. ...not full of yourself. This is a tribute band. We're not an original band looking to "make it big". We have a lot of fun and you should, too.
2. ...a talented musician. This is a tribute band. The whole point is to recreate the sound of the music as accurately as possible. We don't expect you to play the exact same lines as Jeff on every song, but you should have a good feel for the music and sound as close to the originals as possible.
3. ...fun. This is a tribute band (heard that enough yet?). Do you love Pearl Jam? So do we. Let's play Pearl Jam, because that's fun as hell.
4. . ..YOU MUST LOVE PEARL JAM!
Songs. . .
We know Pearl Jam's catalogue as fans, but we don't play everything (yet). Most of our shows are two sets long, and we mostly cover Ten through Binaural, though we're open to learning more. Here's a quick example of one of our sets:
1. Release
2. Corduroy
3. Black
4. I Got Id
5. Last Exit
6. Whipping
7. Better Man
8. State of Loving Trust
9. Alive
10. Red Mosquito
11. Do the Evolution
12. Hail, Hail
13. Porch
Audition. . .
Do you really love Pearl Jam? Do you want to rock as hard as Jeff Ament does? If so, please let us know! We request serious candidates ONLY who have a passion for Pearl Jam's music and can learn quickly as we want to get back on stage as soon as possible. Therefore, we would expect you to practice in advance and hit the ground running, because, shit, studio time is expensive!
Please let us know if you're interested! We'll find ten songs suitable for an audition and bring you in to go over them with the full band.
Email me (Scott) directly at <!-- e --><a href="mailto:dirtyhudsonband@aol.com">dirtyhudsonband@aol.com</a><!-- e -->
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Scott, John, Jason, and Matt
