Perhaps a bit different of a topic - How to form/join/find a band to play with?

I'm a pretty good guitar player, and I'd like to be in a band. I'm in the Birmingham area right now, but I have no idea how to network with people who are in need of a guitar player.
Any advice or experience with this?
A band that writes music...not just a cover band.

Do you go to shows and talk to people? Do you let it be known in your circles that you like to play and would be interested in gigging? Have you checked online locally? you play guitar and want to do originals- have you played your own stuff publically?

I started booking "mini" 1/2-1hour sets around town, for free. That's how I met some of the folks that I've played with from time to time. You just have to put yourself out there, oh and don't suck. Find some open mics to play as well.

Post a flier in your local music store.
