Pathos-laden personal ads from musicians posted in cafes; have you seen any?

Scrawled in block caps, on the back of an opened envelope, pinned to corkboard in a London caff (I'm paraphrasing the actual wording but not much, and the crossing out is from the ad.

"Guitarist of the Members seeks [word inserted] PAID work playing guitar. 30 years experience playing rock, blues, R&B. Until recently on tour with punk legendary band the Vibrators."

How pathetic.
