Saturday night's gig was a blast

[Undertoad]

It's a tremendous pain in the ass. It took us nearly two years to find this one.

audition for months ->
find somebody not bad ->
after two months he's not a good match ->
audition for months ->
find somebody great ->
after two months he's got lead singer disease ->
audition ->
find somebody good ->
figure out he's not arrogant ->
hire and work for a year and a half making progress

If we drop this act, the current lead will take with him several parts of the PA system. Which is no big deal, we could replace it, but I don't know if I want to keep going through this process. We're all getting older, and there are fewer and fewer places open that take bands, much less loud ones.

On the other hand, ya gotta do something.

The same scenario plays out a thousand times a day, in many languages.

What's the name of his new band? It might get as bad an on-line reputation. If they don't get any gigs, he'd might as well play with you guys.
