Have you tried starting one on your own?
That's what I did. On craigslist too. Took a couple yrs to get good committed players (except for keys), but I got responses for the others pretty quick. Went thru several bass and rhythm guitar players and two drummers to get the right players, but that's par for the course.

Bandmix is a dud for me so far for jam players.

I was approached by an Elvis impersonator who was looking for a lead player.

He obviously did not read my profile or listen to my track.

Monk said don't bug someone just be on the scene. I do that, networking by going out to venues, meeting local players. Much smaller pool, most into some kind of solo,duo, trio acoustic stuff.

Right on brother
No left turns unstoned

My main complaint is when "they" have 0 vids or MP3s.
I did just score a singer from C.L. that has potential.
