This will be a thread that is dedicated to finding other people to make bands with from the central Illinois area. All you need to do is list your name, what you can play, how to get in touch with you (email, phone number, etc.), and perhaps any sort of direction you want for the project/band.
If you are in a project/band looking for new members; post the exact same information, but also include your band's name and what position you are looking for.
The goal of this is to increase the number of bands in Springfield and benefit the scene as a whole by making fun music for everyone to listen to.
To keep things simple, just keep it along these lines:
Name Instrument Ideal musical genre/sound description Contact Information

I'm going to sticky this!
Also, I am down to fill in on some bass guitar. I am pretty busy, but I'm down if you need something to get you by for a show.

Reviving this thread
I'm Kolton, I play loud guitar. My influences are anything with either Jeff Rosenstock or Fred Malcom in it. Not gonna lie I'm probably not even in the top 5 best guitar players on this forum.
If you ever want to jam, feel free to send me a message on here.

If you ever want to jam, feel free to send me a message on here. hi somejabroni nice to meet you. how far back in the Jeff Rosenstock catalogue of music do you go?? here is a photo of me playing trombone with my friend Jeff Rosenstock (one of my all time favorite Jeff's) (top 10 Jeffs for sure), found on the Bomb The Music Industry! last fm page from over 10 years ago now. (I am #1 fan)

although I played trombone with Jeff 1 time, I am not as good as pals as Jeff and buffaaron420 (they email video chat every day), but maybe someday we can hang out. I drove to champaign one time and hung outside a bowling alley while buffaaron420 and Jeff ate pizza and smoked weed together inside but buffaaron420 would not let me come inside to see and say hi to Jeff I and was outside hiding in the bushes.
I had Jeff booked at Black Sheep 1 time once upon a long time ago, but then he got too big and the tour re-routed to bigger cities
I am ready for the Jeff Rosenstock fan's thread where we rank every single one of his albums in every band he has ever played with.

I've got a buddy who has a "Jeff t shirt" that he did with a can of paint in an alley, but that's about as close as I get to "playing horns in the crowd with him." Also, could low key tell that buffaaron420 was cooler than me in almost every way imaginable, this just confirms it.

Hey Everyone!
Tilt Warning's drummer just moved out of state, and I'm looking for someone who'd be interested in coming on board. I figured I'd post on the Springfield Underground Center for Mitch's Movies before caving and printing a flyer or something.
Right now it's just me (guitar/vox) and a buddy (bass), but we play punk songs. Started playing together just before the pandemic, so we haven't played live yet, but it also means that you can be as creative as you want when laying down some sick beats. We play originals, I've been providing the bones and letting everyone build on that. The only thing we'd ask from you is that you've got your own gear and you're chill. If you're interested, shoot me a DM.

OH NO BAD MAN LOCAL PUNK ROCK VETERAN ASSHOLES SEEK GUITAR PLAYER WHO WILL SHUT UP AND DO WHAT THEY ARE TOLD AND JUST PLAY GUITAR LIKE JOHNNY RAMONE. YOU WILL HAVE TO WEAR A DUMB OUTFIT. NO YOU CAN NOT PICK THE OUTFIT. MUST BE ABLE TO RIDE A SKATEBOARD, NO EXCEPTIONS. EVEN IF YOU DO NOT DRINK BEER PLAN ON GETTING COVERED IN BEER AT SOME POINT. YOU'LL PROBABLY GET IN A FIGHT AT SOME POINT. NO POSERS. IF WE BOOK A SHOW AND YOU CANNOT DO IT WE WILL DO IT WITHOUT YOU. YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO SAY IN ANYTHING. NO POSERS.NO REPLYS, NO MESSAGES, NO PHONE CALLS. MUST DROP OFF A RESUME IN PERSON THAT INCLUDES A SHORT 1 PARAGRAPH ESSAY ON WHY POSERS ARE THE WORST. RESUME MUST BE DROPPED OFF AT DUMB RECORDS 418 E MONROE STREET SPRINGFIELD IL.this is my vibe

My name is Joseph Merrell. I'm 18 with little experience with anything professional, looking to become a vocalist or lead singer for a band. I self practice with moderate screaming, low growls, and melodic singing. I take heavy inspiration from Slipknot and Korn. I'm more into something that's heavy metal but that takes on a more fresh approach to music. I currently reside in Springfield, I work about 4 days a week 4-5 hours. If anyone is interested please contact me at bmerrell499@gmail.com
