Starting a band? Then take on the responsibility already!

The BBQ Pit

I answered a bassist wanted ad. A guitarist is trying to pull together a trio: bass, guitar, and percussion. The guitarist wants to get together to see if we gel musically, which is cool, but there is a problem:

EasyPhil: * Yeah, sounds like a cool project, I’m interested.*

Guitarist: * Okay, yeah let’s get together these are the tunes I want to do. Are you available Sunday?*

EasyPhil: Sunday’s good, let me know when and where.

Guitarist: * Well I’m free Sunday evening but, WHERE WOULD WE GET TOGETHER???*
Note: The phrase in all caps is exactly what was written in the email

EasyPhil: :confused:

What the fuck is wrong with this person? Heeelloooo? In my mind if you’re trying to put a group together it’s on you not me, to make arrangements as to where to hold auditions.

Run, don’t walk! Next thing you know he’ll want you posing nude for some “artistic pictures”.

Seriously though, I wouldn’t want to work with such an unorginized dumbass!

Heh heh, I think I know this guy, or he’s an archtype…

I’d respond thusly:

Dude, I’m stoked! Let’s jam in the parking lot at Winn-Dixie, there aren’t any cars after it closes on Sunday night. I’ll bring my frisbee and a bag of weed. By the way, WHAT KIND OF BASS AND AMPLIFIER WILL I BE USING?

Prolly can’t spell archetype either…:smack:
