When the bass player cannot understand that he is always rushing....I have played with too many of that type!guitar2

You know I have always practise 2 nights a week 3. Plus hours when I was in a rotgut working band just covers and did it as close as we could and still had issues so I say the more practise the tighter you get and it sounds like the band is heading in a different direction than you at this time , I would give notice finish the few Gigs left , than say adios. next !

So last week I gave my goodbyes to the band. Waited to play the show we had booked before I broke the news. But I also made sure to give them plenty of time as the next show is on Nov 12th. So roughly two months to find someone. But I did say that if need be I can play the show on the 12th if they don't have anyone ready. Didn't burn any bridges or cause any conflict. Good people, just wasn't working band wise.

Another note - the band that asked me to play with them on the 21st I think was impressed by me. I went in having done my homework as I knew we were only getting three practices in before the show ( each four hours mind you ) In the band conversation the bassist made mention that I was the only guy in the room who " owned " his parts. This coming from guys who I consider to be a few levels above me. So hearing that really made me proud of myself. If anyone is in or around Newark Delaware on Oct 21st we're gonna be in town kick @$$!

guta love it when the bass player likes the drummer!

Heck yea. Real cool guys too. Was my first time actually meeting them all on Weds when we got in the room together.
