Members stratotastic Posted May 13, 2009 Members Share Posted May 13, 2009 I encourage my bandmates to look at this forum. there is a lot great info about the usual things we go through in a band. I always point to this forum to back up my argument especially when we get into the "that song will/will not go over" conversations.+1, man. But it turns out they're too smart and all-knowing to listen to a bunch of "internet losers." One time I posted our song list in one of those "will these go over" threads and one of my bandmates threw a {censored}ing tantrum, "those guys are assholes and don't know what they're talking about!" He's not in the band anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fastplant Posted May 13, 2009 Members Share Posted May 13, 2009 I'm lucky enough to have a band with few issues, minimal drama and we're open enough to talk about our problems in person. Plus I've known these guys most of my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kramerguy Posted May 13, 2009 Members Share Posted May 13, 2009 I try to stick to complaining about things in the past. Who gives a crap if the guy in my last band reads it, maybe he will wake up and realize why I left? naah. Can't really complain about much these days, I'm in 2 drama-free bands and livin the life.

Members backtoblue Posted May 14, 2009 Members Share Posted May 14, 2009 I wish I could get my bandmates on HC. I think they would learn a lot, as I have. I've got pretty good group of guys though, and I don't think I would ever feel the need to vent on a forum about them.

Members GreenAsJade Posted May 14, 2009 Members Share Posted May 14, 2009 I've found the knowledge that bandmates just might be reading here to be a healthy check on posting too much raw bitching. GaJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members toddkuen Posted May 14, 2009 Members Share Posted May 14, 2009 Gosh - I'm surprised how many people here play with band mates who can read... Just kidding - but they definitely don't use the internet so I don't worry... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vanlatte Posted May 14, 2009 Members Share Posted May 14, 2009 +1, man. But it turns out they're too smart and all-knowing to listen to a bunch of "internet losers."

He's not in the band anymore. Damn does that sound familiar...I went through this whole "We dont have time for chat rooms" (yes they were all that computer illiterate) thing when I suggested they check places like this out.I got some critique on our music at the time and they ate up the positive stuff...of course anything negative was promptly dismissed as the aforementioned "internet losers" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
