I'm fed up today. I'm so sick of no shows I get auditions set up they call me randomly during the week get all exited about a potential band member and guess what they don't turn up or make some excuse "I'm too busy right now" or "or something to the likes of... Well mr wanna' be why the fuck did you answer the ad ? then waste my time ? The post i put up the other day about buying a cheap bass and doing it myself that's the plan right now because i know i can rely on me and i'll turn up and i'll work on the band every single day. This is'nt just a passing fad, This band is always on my mind it has been since i was a teenager and it's frustrating being the only one who cares about it. It's always the same old story, People want everything done and ready to go so they can walk right into a sweet thing after all the works been done! Well FLASHPOINT does'nt need those kind of people and i refuse to drag people kicking and screaming to practice. It's not enough to just WANT IT, You Have to NEED IT, and you have to be willing to work for it. When your a nobody band you have a lot to prove to the industry which means work work work something people just don't want to do. There are a lot of great musicians out there but there all in their bedroom playing to themselves. Do you think that your gonna write a couple of riffs then record Labels are gonna' be throwing deals and money at you ? Because if that's the case then you know nothing and should quit. It takes a lot of dedication, work and time to get a band off the ground then you gotta keep it there. The works never ending, the way i see it is people seem to think that because you work in the entertainment industry then it's gonna be sweet with party's and fucking around and having fun 24/7 YES but after you've made it not before and even then the work does'nt just dissapear. It's like any job you'll get out of it what you put in and if you put in nothing then that's exactly what your gonna' get. think about that before applying to join my band. Or i might just lose it and follow you home with a bat :)
