I have been in my recent band for a few years now, in which time we have been on tours recorded an album and have had the opportunity to play with many bands i have always wanted to share a stage with.
We have had ups n downs (mainly ups)..... and in ways it has felt like a family.
But due to my own family commitments and personal problems i have had to call it a day after our next gig,not a easy descission to come to(a bit out of my hands)
i have just told the lads tonight .............. and it felt absolutly rotten as hell! they took it as well as could be( gutted but accepted )and don't want to continue without me.
We have put so much sweat n tears and time into our music,and i don't think i have ever played with musicans i gel with so well before.
It totally sucks balls!!......and very much feels like splitting up with a partner,
the ammount of time, sacrifice and effot it takes to work a band you love...........do we invest to much emotionly into it?
cause i feel a big void has apeared.
