@Wesogkan...where you in Seabeast?
This is Ron from Sufferghost. I'm doing Curse the Son now.
Good luck finding some people to jam with.  It took me forever to find a drummer, now I'm on my 3rd. 
Just gotta keep rollin with the punches, you'll find some folks.

I was...how's it goin' dude? I'm on my 2nd drummer, finally got a bassist down to jam yesterday, there's hope!

Strike 2 for my 2nd band...Rent is now 23 days overdue on the space (just theirs), other bands in the space we share with are pissed, landlord is pissed. Guitarist has been out of town for 2 weeks, haven't practiced once since he's left. Have messaged/called both other members about jamming, twice this week...no response from the bassist at all, 2nd guitarist said he'd show, then didn't, apparently called the bassist to cancel and was supposed to drop rent off the next day...nothing. Finally a response from the absent guitarist yesterday bitching to me about letting the rent situation get serious, telling me I should've called his girlfriend to get his rent. (HAHAHAHAHAHAHA)

Do I have a sign on me that says "Mom and landlord"? WTF?

About to kick them out of the space and start a new project on drums. During the 2 weeks they've been inactive, I've started a new band where I play bass and we've written 5 riffs in 2 days, might have a song already...and I'm the pothead. Goddamn lazy unreliable flakes.

Don't despair we just got lucky and picked up a guitarist who has the practice space in his house (resulting in my permanent move back to bass) So we've gone from 3 drunk guys (and whoever showed up and wanted to play or attempt to play bass) in a garage to a semi competent 4 piece after only 2 practices.

So it can turn around when you least expect it.  And I had totally given up big time.

Ahhh...yes, had a band mate hang up on me today because I wanted to take the night off from practice (heavy work load/early morning/today is my day off, etc.) he's pissed because he's going on a road trip for 2 weeks, thus no practice during that time. Just got online and found out he flamed me on facebook about it, not too thrilled right now. Apparently my dedication is publicly in question over a missed practice. I just sank $250 into my drumkit, WTF?

This is bullshit. I'd be looking to get the fuck out or get him out. I would assume that he's used to having a lot of drama with people. Hanging up on people, Facebook flaming, tire slashing and fist fighting are regular occurances for some people. I call them crazy and try to stay away from them.

what tops red giant's fist fight onstage? heh, i cannot believe they did that. those two are more like scrappy brothers.
