My cousin and I put together and managed an all female rock band in the mid 1970's. That experiment could have bankrupted both of us if we hadn't pulled the plug when we did. You've heard all the jokes about having a "chick singer in the band". Well........five of them singing and playing instruments is that kind of trouble times a thousand. The last thing that we disposed of was this 1958 Pontiac that we bought for hauling the band's gear (which was mostly our stuff that they used).

No matter how far you push the envelope, it is still stationery.

I think the rule is, each female member causes problems to expand exponentially...

Although we did try to have my bass player's Wife sing for us and although it never went anywhere for the band, it at least didn't cause big problems.
