the worst band I've ever been in?
SUNDAY 1/5/2020 5:15 PM--I'm so upset about being in a band that sucks as much as *I* think the Combustibles does that I wanna write a song about it...we had two "subs" practice with us today...the drummer was just ok IMO; the Bass player is very good and has played with us in the past...*I* think he left the band in the first place because we suck...I admit that my performance today was atrocious, but it's hard to want to play better when the rest of the band is so horrible...that may sound like a cop-out, but I swear it's not...
As far as writing a song about it, I intend to think about lyrics once I've got the house to myself tomorrow...unless ideas come to me in the middle of the night...I won't stop 'em...but the situation is so depressing, it's hard not to think about it...but I'm soon gonna be too tired to give it my full attention...maybe that's a good thing...
6:45 PM--Ask me again tomorrow, but Ric is the weakest link in the band...we practice in his basement; I don't think we can tell him to stop smoking what I think is pot in his own house...we really did suck today...But *I* think we sucked a lot worse than Barry does...
MONDAY 1/6/2020 11 AM--starting to think about that song I wanna write, but I'm trying not to force it...it might take weeks before it's finished...it might be weeks before I even really start it...I'm not 100% sure all the members of the ACME Band Co. know that I'm not playing the 1/10 gig with them...personally *I* think somebody is too much of a Dead Head...I could be wrong but I think hallucinogens are involved...I kinda almost hope that's the case, then I won't be quite as annoyed with him...
TUESDAY 1/7/2020 9:45 AM--I'm supposed to go "practice" with Ken and Luisa later today, but I don't think Mother Nature is gonna co-operate...and I can't afford to have so much as a minor fender bender, however you define "minor"...I hope to re-schedule, yet again..I hope Ken isn't too upset...I have my work cut out for me, and I haven't started working on it yet...
1 PM--by mutual agreement, practice is now scheduled for tomorrow a 1PM...but FHB practice is scheduled for tomorrow evening...
4:14 PM--I took a risk and created a youTube playlist for the Reverbs songs that Ken sent me--the ones I didn't know, that is...a tech victory, minor perhaps, but still...
5:42 PM--boy, did *I* open up a can o' worms on Flakebook...there's a page called Cover Band Central...I posed a question regarding the idea that (IMO) I was in a band that sucked and how do I handle that? I was accused of being conceited, and at least mildly insulted in other ways...I stand by my statement that one of the bands I'm in sucks--a lot...oh well...
