singer: keep or boot?

Boot...oh, maybe I should read the post.

hmmh hmm hmmh hmmm

OK, Boot him!!!

But take him to the Lyndora Hotel for wings first (if it's still there)...boy I loved them with the Old Bay all over...yum.

 

.

 

Boot him and leave marks.

Clearly, he's the oldest member of the band only as far as numbers go.

Why would you even think of keeping a band member who raises your blood pressure?

"The tone of the guitar is messing me up" - This one's going to have me laughing for a long time. That's lame.

 

I'll loan you a boot .....

Seriously, you're wasting time. Do It Now.

 

You could've just stopped with 22 and no drivers license. At that - it really wouldn't matter if he had the world's greatest pipes or not, not the kind of person likely to umm "go places."

 

kick him out.

 

Those are two reasons are enough to boot a singer.

 

The dude needs to make like a fetus and head out.

 

Uhhhhhhhh ...





What was the question?

 

uhhh

 

Isn't the correct thumb position for "die" up?

Oh yeah back on topic:

Boot to the head!

 

No. Didn't you see Spartacus?

 

Or Gladiator??!

 

While I agree with the overwhelming majority here (i.e. Dan is a loser and has to go), you gotta be careful with the politial situation. Being the oldest (and the front man) Dan may have some pull with the others, and may be able to convince them to get rid of YOU.

You need to find out in private how Nick feels about Dan. If he feels the same as you, then also check with Ben, also alone. If you are all three of one mind, I would say the next step is to find a singer rather than just boot Dan. It is easier to find a singer for a working band. You can always audition the new singer (and rehearse with him) without telling Dan. That way, you can hold on to the gigs you have booked with Dan while you're preparing to exorcise him.

You do have a bit of clout with your driver's license, but there are LOTS of bass players with driver's licenses, so don't assume that's going to get you everything you want.

Good luck, man. I want to hear how this all works out.

 

If the dunce can't sing...he can't sing...IMO he's too old to learn with an attitude like he has.
Move on!
Better yet, tape a rehersal so the other band members can hear for themselves what you hear...if it sounds like crap, politely resign from the band and see what phone calls you get later.

Stand on your own and see what happens. There is no use going to market with a crap product. Be above it!

 

Well, after all the clever comments, is it really necessary I add my own?















KICK HIM OUT!!!

 

Record him, play it back, showe him that he sucks. Then fire him.
