Famous Bands Musician Wanted Ads

I thought of Joan Jett but was thinking she'd be looking for female band mates.

I forgot how bad things got for her after the Runaways. I was kinda surprised she had to advertise.

Nothing for 6 or 7? I added another hint for 6.

6. The Rocket is Seattle, so I guess Nirvana.

7. Village Voice is NYC. Early 70s = New York Dolls?

Not an actual ad, but I think close enough to fit the thread.

After Dann Gallucci quit Modest Mouse, the band considered putting out an ad for another Johnny Marr -type guitarist to play on their next album.

Before they did that however, they had this crazy idea, and called up Johnny Marr (legendary Smiths guitarist for those are not in the know), who not only helped them make the record (We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank), but ended up joining the band for three years.

As the bands frontman Isaac Brock put it, "I just figured that just because he'd filled a massive part of his life building the Smiths legacy didn't mean he was busy at that precise minute."

Yup mine was Mick Mars ad that he use to hook up with Nikki, and Tommy.

Trout, 6 was Cobain's ad, and he used the name Kurdt.
The other was how KISS found Ace Frehley.

I could be mistaken , but I think the Dolls already knew each other and kinda fell in together after other bands fell apart, but I could be wrong. Personality Crisis, that's me....
