At what point are you good enough to join a band? (lemmy.ml)

As the title says, at what point did you feel competent enough to join a band? I've been playing the guitar for almost 2 years now, and feel like I hit a bit of a plateau, and I'm thinking joining a band might help. At the same time, I don't really feel like I am good enough to play with others.

It's tough. BandMix is trying to be the solution to this but its pretty terrible. Any sort of local social media may have postings looking for bandmates. Or you can try to meet people at shows or music stores. You'd be surpried how many people still use Craigslist

I signed up for bandmix, set myself as beginner looking for beginner to just have fun, and all it sends me are people with 20-30 years pro experience!
