Ok, so i have a friend of mine who plays/manages a band (i.e. he is the guy who is in charge and does all the work of getting them booked etc). he left to go traveling with the expectation when he returned that the reigns would be handed back to him.
Anyway, i hear from another good friend (the music community down here is very tightknit... they share a mutual bandmate) that friend#1 might not be getting this band back. i guess everyone in friend#1s band is very close buddy buddy, except friend#1. friend #1 demands more rehearsals than the band is happy with and doesnt interact with them completely on a friendly level. However, to his credit, friend#1 is responsible for getting this bands name out in the local scene.
But basically, what i hear, is there is a sizeable chance that his band might not let him back in when he returns in a couple of months.
what do i do? on one hand, im a loyal friend. on the other hand, i am not sure what good telling him this could do. Aside from ruin his trip. The only thing that he could do as far as i can tell is to stay in touch on a friendly level with his bandmates as often as possible. however, i dont want to pass on inflammatory news.
