Then yesterday the worst case senario started to play out.... We were supposed to have practice on tues and weds night to gear up for thye 2 night gig. Tuesday night we all get there except for the drummer....after its an hour past start time, we call him...he doesnt answer his phone, so we call his wife and she tells us that he is in jail for DUI and 2 counts of assulting an officer. Oh, yea, and thats not the worst part...LOL....the worst part is that he was already on level 2 probation (that means he had to go in for regular piss tests and all that lovely garbage) for taking his family hostage, yea...taking his family hostage !!!!! So he is going away for a long time, im not sure what the suspended sentence was for his probation, but he is going to serve the full time for that, whatever time for the DUI, and the assaulting an officer charges are both of the felony flavor that carry 10 year max sentences. Now, we are a day and a half away from the biggest gig as a band and we are probably going to have to cancel....because it doesnt matter how good you are, you need more than one day to learn 60 fucking songs.
I havent tried putting the mp3s over from the tape yet...just been busy...will get to it soon...because it appears that we are going to have some free time while looking for another drummer.
