What do you do in this situation?

What do you do when you're in three different bands, but each band has one person at least from the previous one?

Basically my situation is, my first band has 3 people and me. The second band has 1 person from the first band, and the 3rd band has 1 person from the first band and 1 person from the second band. And not to mention, I'm in all 3, so basically at least 2 people are in all 3 bands. I know that probably didnt make sense, but I hope it did.

The only reason we're so seperated is because all 3 bands are completely different styles of music, and we would have 2 drummers and 3 guitarists. One band is pure thrash metal, the other is progressive metal, the other is more progressive jazz alternative. Does this sound like a dumb situation? I mean, Dream Theater and Liquid Tension Experiment are all the same people except a different bass player and no singer, but still, just, what do you guys think...anyone else have situations like this? I'm not saying it's a problem just it seems a bit awkward at times.

Sounds fine to me as long as you have the time for all three.

I play with a loose group of musicians that mix and match for different gigs. People ask for the band's name and we don't have one.
