Psychobilly? Hell Yeah!

Me and my girlfriend have decided it would be insanely cool to have a psychobilly band, the best part about that is if we do it correctly we won't need a drummer (we don't have any friends who like our favourite music and can drum). So step 1 teach her how to play bass and make sure she buys one, (which she will be in a few days). Step 2 get her playing slap bass like a pro and step 3, move her onto double bass (there are 2 in school)
The problem with this idea is that the psychobilly bands we know of don't have any bass tabs on the internet and I can't (yet) play guitar in a rockabilly fashion (I can at least do the punk side)

Punk Rock

The best thing about punk rock is the energy, the fast tempo which gets you pumped. I've been listening to a lot of punk (Zebrahead and Blitzkid mainly) and I just felt a little strange about it, since I don't have a skateboard and I can't skate. Admittedly I haven't tried it since I was 10, and my idiotic balance hasn't really improved but my want to do more has. So I brought a skateboard for about £13. Now I can teach myself to skate, I know the theory behind skateboarding, and a pop shuvit. Maybe I can actually succeed if not I'll just seek instruction.
