PORPHYRIA NEW BASSIST / STILL SEEKS 2ND GUITARIST.[views:10117][posts:35]____________________________________ [Aug 8,2005 3:51pm - RustedAngel ""] We'd like to welcome Nick Avila our new bass player to the band...He's already been to a couple practices so far and showed us that he's completely capable of playing our shit. His first show with us will be august 27th in Haverhill, MA with Amaranthus, DWW, Feed Us Fetus, ect...We'd also like to say thank you to dan for all his hard work and good luck. Also thanks to everyone else who tried out. 2ND GUITARIST POSITION!!!! Just a few requirements we ask: -good equipment=good tone. yeah. -a positive/serious attitude (we're all a bunch of goofballs, but we're serious when we have to be) -flexible schedule (lots of shows, weeknights, weekends) and ability to tour if we get a deal worked out. -rhythm is the most important aspect, sure you can solo like yngwie (which is a bonus) but it doesn't really mean much to us if you can't play anything else. We currently practice in Berwick, ME, but we may alternate between my house in Berwick and Needham, MA. you can check out a newly recorded track that's unmastered @ http://www.myspace.com/porphyria please contact us if you are interested and we will setup a tryout ASAP: porphyria603@hotmail.com or call tom @ 603.781.0993 thanks. |

| ___________________________________ [Aug 8,2005 4:06pm - Sinislazy ""] Nick is not only a nasty bassist, but he's got great stage personality. \m/ |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 8,2005 6:02pm - i_am_not_me ""] Hooray for Nick. And I might consider trying out if you guys are going to practice at his place. Maine's a bit ridiculous. And my schedule's a bit of an issue, Wednesdays and Sundays are rather difficult to do shows on, since I have to close on Sundays and Wednesdays I work until 6. And I don't know how able I would be to tour. |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 8,2005 6:27pm - anonymous ""] where in needham, ma are you practicing? is it someones house? |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 8,2005 7:04pm - i_am_not_me ""] I'd imagine it's Nick's house. |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 9,2005 1:27am - RustedAngel ""] yes, Nick. |

Fordearlife@msn.com berwick is about 1 hour 15 min from boston...southern tip of maine. Near dover/nh area. I don't think we'll be permanently practicing in Needham. |
| ________________________________________ [Aug 15,2005 7:25pm - ArrowHead nli ""] Man, if you were closer I'd do it in a minute. I've been thinking about finding a band to play guitar in during Pillory downtime for a while now, and I fucking LOVE porphyria. Move to boston, would ya? |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 8,2005 3:23pm - RustedAngel ""] ok we're still practicing at my house in maine currently. we may get a space in dover, nh...not positive yet.... damnit arrowhead, that would own. GUITARIST'S, WE STILL NEED SOMEONE TO FILL THE 2ND SLOT. QUIT BEING ASSMANGLERS. |

| ___________________________________ [Sep 8,2005 6:08pm - BornSoVile ""] i'm fucking shocked nobody else has tried out. |

| ____________________________________ [Sep 14,2005 3:10pm - LtdEc-1000 ""] Why am i not out of highschool yet.... FUCK. Guys, gimme about a year and a half, and im good to go. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 15,2005 9:44am - RustedAngel ""] someone jam with us! |
| _________________________________________ [Sep 15,2005 9:58am - DreamingInExile ""] when/where do you guys practice? I may come up and jam if it's on a night I can do (and not too far of a drive) |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 15,2005 10:01am - RustedAngel ""] that's the problem it seems, we practice too far away for everyone. we practice at my house, about 1 hour and 15 minutes north of boston. we are looking to get a practice space in dover, nh which is like an hour from boston but you can practice any time of night. |
| __________________________________________ [Sep 15,2005 10:23am - DreamingInExile ""] well, I'm like 30 mins north of Boston, so that's not too bad, that puts me at about a 45 minute drive (30 the way I drive) Tom, Catch me on AIM and maybe we can figure something out. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 15,2005 10:31am - RustedAngel ""] I really dont' want to resort to paying for a practice space, but we need a place to keep the drums and other gear instead of having to bring it to and from practices all the time. |

Agreed, paying for a place to play sucks. If you want, I'll come up and jam one of these days. just catch me on AIM or give me a buzz and we can probably figure something out. |

| _____________________________________________ [Sep 20,2005 3:48pm - i_am_not_logged_in ""] If you DID permanently practice in MA then I'd be up for it. Even Dover's a bit far, though. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 20,2005 3:55pm - RustedAngel ""] I really don't want to practice in mass unless we can have a place there that's FREE. |
