With my original band that I'm playing shows with this weekend, our bass player is sudden;y out of the band, which is actually a good thing. Honestly I've wanted him out of the band for months, he's kind of a dick and basically a loser, he mooches off everyone and refuses to work, he constantly talks shit about our drummer, and he sucks at the bass and won't put the work into getting better. Also he has never once paid rent in 4 months of living with my guitar player, who is one of the nicest people I know and hasn't kicked him out. But for the past month he's been telling the guy that another friend is moving in because he will pay rent, and the bass player has been saying shit like "he's not getting my room!" or just ignoring it. Well, the new guy (a good friend who is the front man of my friend's band) had to be out of his old place by the 30th, and on the 30th the bass player hadn't moved anything out. He came over with his stuff and the dude flipped out, said that this was the first he heard of it, cussed out my guitar player, unfriended him on Facebook, told him he's a horrible person, and stormed out, and left all his stuff there. The new roommate was really cool about it and just slept on the couch for a couple of days. But then when they were gone the other day, he came back and stole cash off his dresser, and a $100 pair of headphones, and moved a few things out. When they found out, they put all the rest of his stuff outside, changed the locks and told him to get his stuff and that it was outside. So, needless to say, he's not in the band anymore. 8( Good riddance though. We already have a friend who is a very good bass player who is going to practice with us tomorrow, and practice the chord charts beforehand, and play our shows with us for now, and will probably do a better job right out of the gate.
Anyway I can't believe what a douche the old bass player was, why doesn't he realize my guitar player was the best friend he had? He let him live there rent-free for 4 months, meanwhile the dude trashes the place all the time and is really unpleasant to live with and super selfish about everything. So what does he do? Burns all the bridges, never pays him the money he owes him, and instead steals from him? And clearly he has convinced himself he was grievously wronged in this situation, too. Fuck off dude... well, I'm glad he's gone.
