BillWelcome Home Studios Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Years ago when confronted with this situation, I came across two solutions. One was to jump off a bridge while sticking my head in the oven and blowing my brains out with a really big gun. The other was to go to bed, get up in the morning, and go on with life. Obsess over thngs that you can change. "I believe that entertainment can aspire to be art, and can become art, but if you set out to make art you're an idiot."

Phillydor Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Originally posted by Kramer Ferrington III.: I don't know how many bands start off with everyone hating each other. Not that many, I'd say. Cream definately, for one. Both Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce have gone on record saying they hated each other from the their pre-Cream Graham Bond Days. Maybe not from the start but there have been lots of bands who's members were barely on speaking terms. Fleetwood Mac, due to relationship break-ups, and there's The Ramones...I'll do a bit more homework and get back to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Iverson Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Actually I've never had the experience of playing in a band with people I hated. And rarely have I had to work with people I disliked, or at least closely enough for it to make any difference! I guess I'm just not very good at hating people. Are there are any pointers you guys can give me, or am I just too old to change?? ------------------------ Seriously, I can see a person being in a situation where he was hired as a sideman and had issues with someone, but if you're putting a band together, what possible reason could there be to join up with people whose company you don't enjoy? You don't necessarily have to be best buds, but if the other person drives you up a tree and you can't stand the sight of him.... the only solution I guess would be to 1) make sure there were trees handy and 2) play blindfolded!

Well, that happens sometimes. One time we took on a singer that I found way too trendy for my taste, but she was good. She had the right image and look and everything so I went with it. I guess I was tired of playing with Beavis & Butthead types and never getting out of the garage. And yeah, it was a pretty difficult relationship because I often felt she that she was pretentious and full of shit (and no doubt I came across as a boorish suburban boy) but it gave everything a sort of edge which came across well on stage. It took me months to accept her but I'm glad I did. Band MySpace My snazzy t-shirt empire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Iverson Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Yes, Kramer, you have a point. There are people I dearly love today that I didn't like at first... or at least, didn't understand! That might be a lesson for all of us.. don't leap to wrong conclusions about people you don't even know.. after all, you don't want people to do that to YOU! One song I've always loved said, "I'm just a man whose intentions are good Oh Lord please don't let me be misunderstood!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
