Yea, just play out these last gigs and move on. If this band breaks up member may call you later to form another band.]]> News corbind https://guitarnoise.forum/news/out-with-the-old/#post-271046 https://guitarnoise.forum/news/out-with-the-old/#post-270644 Fri, 09 Nov 2007 21:00:24 +0000
There's nothing at all wrong with them carrying on -- that's what they have to do. There's nothing rude in what they've done or what they're asking you to do. Now, just be a professional and work out a set schedule so that it works out for you as well.]]> News kingpatzer https://guitarnoise.forum/news/out-with-the-old/#post-270644 https://guitarnoise.forum/news/out-with-the-old/#post-270641 Fri, 09 Nov 2007 20:51:55 +0000
Is there anyway they could set it up so you simply don't play the last set? That way you're not hopping up and down every other song, which could be awkward.

Since you said that you were leaving soon anyway, it seems like all of you should be able to work it out. But you're right, if the next gig doesn't go well, you should probably cut your losses.

There are lots of GNers in "northern Illinois"; you should be able to find more people to play with, even with a limited schedule.

Good luck.]]> News Dan Lasley https://guitarnoise.forum/news/out-with-the-old/#post-270641 https://guitarnoise.forum/news/out-with-the-old/#post-28861 Fri, 09 Nov 2007 19:04:45 +0000
In the several weeks since our last job, the rest of them got together without notifying me and learned a bunch of new songs to add to the playlist. I then got an email from them saying that I am not to be onstage with them during these new songs for the remaining gigs.

The mature, professional part of me is saying just to soldier on through. The childish, vindictive side says to get thru the next gig (I need the $$ from this one) and then tell 'em to jump in the lake. For all I know they may tell me to get out when I show up for the next gig.

My official reason for leaving was that I simply couldn't commit to the busy gig schedule since I am the only member who still has kids at home. I was trying to make this an amicable split. While I do have personal issues, I have kept them to myself - mainly because I can be a moody SOB and I didn't want to burn any bridges. Plus, I figured personality conflict is part of the nature of the beast.
