Guitarist had breakdown today

I think we got lownered.

The doctor is still in the house. Posted today. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and suggest he's seen how his thread has turned and is just pretending it never happened and hoping it will just die off.

However, if you ARE reading this, OP, you'll get a lot more respect around here if you acknowledge your part in your own downfall and stop posting such chest-puffing testosterone fuelled nonsense here and in the other threads that you are gracing with your presence.

Over and out.
 
The dude doesn't want to play out yet...if he feels he's not ready, he's probably not ready...you trying to shame him into playing by calling him a pussy is not cool. I respect him for being up front and telling you he's not ready, instead of trying to play gigs and train wrecking every song...

Anyways I get the feeling there's more to this story we don't know.

This.

Some people have a life outside of music. Calling him names isn't going to help.

Sounds like you guys aren't on the same wavelength. Nothing you can do to change his mind.
 
I am also forced to point out that if the OP is, in fact, 26, he will meet with a lot of legal issues should he be successful in his quest to have sexual relations with girls.

He might want to consider women, at this point in his life, although how he is going to get any of them to consider agreeing will be another matter, unless he can learn to skip the obligatory mention of the state of his private parts.

Hilarious!

Mellow, if you were the beer-drinking sort, then I'd send you a six-pack of some fine Washington craft beer.

I very much enjoyed this gem!
 
Your guitarist had a meltdown? Nah. You're the one having a meltdown. Your guitarist straight-up told you that he's got other priorities that make gigging unrealistic but would still like to jam if you're into that. So you're blaming him for having a life and for not being delusional enough to think that gigging in a bar band will make him somebody. And you're blaming him for holding you back. Dude, you've been jamming with this guy for a year. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me for a whole year?

His priorities are a lot different than yours. You've known this for awhile. So stop blaming him and get to doing what you should have been doing a year ago: finding musicians with similar goals.

I like this. Winner
 
You know it's time
