How do I stop my mother from bringing her bassist to gigs?

[fanuvbrak]

Mom and I have been in a band for years and I've always been the bassist.

 

But ever since Dad passed away, Mom's been hanging out with these metal heads and she insists on bringing this tatooed and pierced bassist she knows to every gig and he always wants to sit in on a few songs.

 

It's starting to piss me off and it's causing a riff between Mom and me because I will NOT call him "Dad". He's probably 8 years younger than me. In fact, he tried to ground me before our last gig.

If you were meeting your mom's needs, she wouldn't be looking elsewhere.

 

As someone in some other thread said, man up.

I think your parody detector needs new batteries...

Naaahhhh. It's just, maybe, a little subtle for you. Read it again.

I think you're being a little harsh.

The question is, who is this mocking?

As pointed out in the other thread, the day she come home and finds you in bed with the bassist is the day she stops asking him to come to gigs. Do it. For the good of the band. Do it.

I'm this close to making a "how do I stop my bassist from bringing his Mothra to gigs" thread.

 

[pjrake]

or how 'bout "how to I stop my bassist from bringing Moby to gigs"
