Members FitchFY Posted February 1, 2013 Members Share Posted February 1, 2013 It figures that just as I approach the launch of my soul/ funk/ pop cover band, Souldiers, I get a text message from a very close friend that his rather lucrative rock/ pop/ dance cover band is 7/8 of the way into firing their drummer, and they all want to ask me to take the gig. This figures. They gig 2-3 times a month (closer to 2), and the money is good, and I could use it. I'm also very good friends with 2 of them, really like the 3rd, and don't really know the 4th. We've jammed together before, I know most of their set list and how they operate, and I know what I bring to the table as a drummer will allow them to step up their game a good chunk. The music is also far different from my other projects, so I'm thinking I may return to being a 3-band drum whore again if I get this offer! But it FIGURES... just when I was on the crest of launching the new one... the life of a gigging musician is never without calamity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members tlbonehead Posted February 2, 2013 Members Share Posted February 2, 2013 if you can make the scheduling fit w/o conflicts, why not? But I wouldn't switch to a band that rarely plays, unless you are ok with only playing occasionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
