12/21/05 - Quiet Riot to hold audition for bassist
QUIET RIOT will be holding a one-day-only audition for a bass player that is based out of the general Los Angeles area. If you are interested but not in the area, please do not apply. The basic requirements are for a bass player that is well versed and rooted in British late '60s and '70s music — John Paul Jones, Andy Fraser, and the style of music such as LED ZEPPELIN, FREE, HUMBLE PIE, THE BABYS, etc. The band are looking for a finger player that is also musically knowledgeable of funk roots. The new material has a lot of these influences as a basis, but applicants would also be required to perform the QUIET RIOT songs that are expected from the band.

If interested and qualified, please e-mail: QUIETRIOTBASS@AOL.com. Include all your contact information, bio, images etc. QUIET RIOT recently announced the addition of former L.A. GUNS and current BRIDES OF DESTRUCTION guitarist Tracii Guns to the group's ranks. The band will begin recording the new CD in late January and into February 2006.
