I hope he has a good reason for no-show

[brianrost]

Not showing without notifying, unless the word "emergency room" is in the reason (and there are scars to confirm it), you really should find someone else.

I've done two sub jobs because the regular guy had a heart attack...does that count as an OK reason to not show up?

Same man both times? I'd take that as good reason, even if two men two heart attacks.

Pretty sure he went through an ER, so yes.

I'd be concerned about him dropping dead on stage. That would be inexcusable.

Especially the second time!

Missing the second half of the show due to dropping dead on stage is acceptable but only if previously arranged with the bandleader.

A third time and he's fired

He's allowed to drop dead from a heart attack once, but I'm not going to accept this a second time.

What would take as fair, the next time he dies?

The next time, he's out. I won't be around someone like this -he'll be dead to me at that point.

You're a hard-liner.

 

[LBS-bass]

You're a hard-liner.

 

[edot3021]

I think you just move forward. If he touches base you just communicate your side. "Hey man you left me hanging with no information and I don't care to put myself in that situation again. No hard feelings."

Death As Career Move?

OK, Em to Cmaj7

Is this the same guitarist you have made multiple posts about various issues? If so, you have painted a picture that he doesn't listen, lacks some basic fundamentals and is unreliable in musicianship, communication and showing up. How many more signs do you need to part ways with this guy?

 

[ELG60]

That is awesome. If we can add a catchy chorus and a bridge, we got a hit!

Chorus:
Oh where oh where has my git tar ist gone
Oh where oh where can he be
With his amp too loud and his ego too strong
Oh where oh where can he be

No, not that one I've spoken of before. I won't have anything at all to do with him any more and haven't since late July.

Cool. I know it was only an open mic, but this guy has now shown some flaky characteristics. Proceed with caution.
