Question for the musicians in Sherdog: Would you go to your ex-band concert?
A bit an emo-question, btw anyway:
I used to be in a band as a guitarplayer. I didn't got along with the drummer and singer and quit the band after a night of arguments and insults back and forth. That was in 2014. I founded the band with the other guitarplayer, we rehearsed for 1,5 year. I did a lot of work for it in the early stage, but made the mistake to go after more experienced musicians and then I got stuck in a band where everybody was way more advanced than me. So I was the weak link...
I am still on speaking terms/friends with the bassplayer and the other guitarplayer/keyboard guy... Now the bassplayer asked me several times to watch them see live and now they are doing a gig and he invited me to see them. (They are just a crappy blues/rock coverband.)
I am a bit curious to find out how they are doing now and I still feel sympathy for the bassplayer and other guitarplayer, but hate the drummer & singer. Also I think it would be bad to go there because its old wounds opening up again, like going to your ex-gf wedding you know?
So what do sherdog musicians do here? Ignore your previous bands and let them rot?
