Members Sty1es Posted July 27, 2006 Members Share Posted July 27, 2006 This is a thread where you can vent your frustrations about bandmates who piss you off. Here's to all the time wasted due to incompetant bandmates who would rather sit around than practice, have excuses for everything, are compulsive liars, can't balance the band with their relationship, do coke, are alcoholics, trade your DVDs in for cigarette money, smoke your stash, eat your food (even though if they had just asked it wouldnt have been a big deal), wear your clothes without you ever knowing they had them in the first place, get you arrested for their actions, are so wasted and have nothing better to do so they go into a neighboring rich subdivision and put pick-axes through corvette hoods, steal other peoples' equipment, {censored} up your gear without taking responsibility, are too obssessed with showmanship that they forget about performance quality, {censored} ugly bitches and then complain about it, and all around sociopathy and disrespect for everyone and everything around them. {censored} you!

Members Bradman006 Posted July 27, 2006 Members Share Posted July 27, 2006 Sounds like fun. I hate bandmates who are dominating. The other guitarist in my band always says {censored} like 'it has to be like this'. I hate that!!!! Everytime he sais it I want to smash his face in. He's going bald and thinks we don't know. I dont even care, doesn't worry me at all but he insists on wearing a beanie all the time, even when we go out. He is refused entry into places because he wont take it off and it always ends up {censored}ing up our night. Oh and the funny thing is, he keeps telling me I should grow my hair back 'cause guitarists should have long hair'. I've had long hair and if I wanted it I'd bloody have it! I'm not into trying to fit a steriotype. He also wants to harmonise everything and try to make us sound like InFlames. He takes all the heavy riffs I write, slows everything down and adds these little 'happy' sounding pop chorus'. He is always making our highly talented bass player play stuff a 3 year old can play, telling him not to complicate things. He has to disagree with everything and everything has to be his way. I have been very tollerant as we've only been jamming for a cjouple of months and I want to see how things shape up + I don't want to seem dominating but its getting to the stage where something has to change.

Just tell him being in a band is a democracy (unless he owns the van and all the gear and has the best house to practice at) and if he doesnt want to do what everyone else wants to do he can be replaced.

Members guitarded_1 Posted July 28, 2006 Members Share Posted July 28, 2006 I have been in so many bands and dealt with so much crap that I am very happy right now to not be in a band. I made the mistake of trying to make a living out of it. I landed a good job in commercial real estate this week, and God Damn, it feels good to get a steady paycheck! I love music, but I can no longer deal with band drama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
