Stopmakingcents

O.K. here's my little rant. Thanks for letting me vent. Well, out of frustration, and with zero tact, I just told my band that " I don't want to be in the band if the vocal harmonies are consistently out of tune. I'd finish my commitments but" yada yada. I'm concerned about how we're sounding, with upcoming gigs booked after a long break. Fact of the matter is I've been frustrated enough with a few areas of the musicianship, etc, that I have been considering finishing out the Summer season and re-evaluating. But for some reason I couldn't keep my mouth shut tonight. I have mixed feelings, as the gigs were very fun, and the bandmates have become good friends, etc. But they resent my occasional blunt suggestions. I can't seem to consistently keep my constructive criticism tactful and positive. I'd welcome any input from fellow H.C. musicians.
