  • This is the story of my WORST gigging experience as a guitar player in a function band. By my own admission a lot of it was my own fault, but still - it escalated pretty fast!
    Playing in a wedding band is usually a fun experience but this one definitely tops the list of my worst experiences.
    I hope you enjoy my video,

    I quit my band 4 days before our first gig. We had been asked to open for a popular local band. The problem is that another member decided that doing heavy drugs right before practice was a great idea. He either disappeared or was too messed up to pick up his instrument. I just packed my amp and guitar then went home. The next day the band member called me wanting to know why all my stuff was gone and I told him I quit. That's when he told me we had an opener. I told him to find someone else because I didn't trust him to be sober that day or even be able to play. He chewed me out for 20 minutes then I told him I still quit. That was basically the last time I spoke to him or the other members. I heard that the other members quit days after I did.

      A chain is only as strong as it’s weakest link.. You can’t be joining a chain with a weak link! Sounds like you did the right thing

    I've learned the hard way to eat at least a little something before heading over to a gig, even if I knew the venue served food (whether comped or not). I've had a few experiences relying on getting food at the gig before our set to help carry me through, but for a myriad of reasons we had to wait until after our set (or learn that food wasn't even available/being served). I remember on some occasions feeling super shaky because I was so hungry and definitely affected the quality of my performing. I told myself never again and to at least have some carbs and protein before leaving for the gig just in case I encounter a situation like that lol

    This sounds like..... work. It sounds like you're going to work. Like...a job. Where people are constantly wrecking everything up with incompetence and inconsiderate behavior.

    Sounds like what seemed like a big deal to you, wasn't that big a deal to the customer. Having the perspective of knowing rhe photographer wanted to leave early, to them it was a quick freak out that got resolved quick. Because you all acted professionally, they didn't have the same stress you did.
