I get a headache just looking at this ad from a local musicians' classified
site. Since I like all of you so much, I thought I'd share:

Headline:
stupid yet fun college/party/bar band

Emetic section:
If anyone is interested I'd like to start a simple bar/college/party/cover
band to play at friends' house parties, a frat house w/ which i am
associated, and some bars. this would basically be a glorified acoustic act.
I sing and play guitar, and would like a the set up to be drummer with
guitar and bass, or just with two guitars. whatever. something simple that
sounds good, but doesnt require much practice time or commitment. a gig
every once in a while on the weekends. i also play drums and bass, so if
others wanna switch around and sing as well, thats cool. i own a drum set,
so you do even need your own. id like to play collegey covers and just stuff
that people know. various hits, songs like mary jane's last dance, brown
eyed girl, maybe some weezer, o.a.r., guster, dispatch. anything catchy and
upbeat for drunks to enjoy.
email if interested

Sounds like a guy who knows exactly what he wants.

The ads that make me roll my eyes are the ones that say "We want to
make money and have fun doing it" then list 16 bands as influences.
