Yeah, the "I'm in a band" thing gets pretty ****ing old after a few years. Nobody really cares, and you come off sounding like an attention whoring little twat. Unless you're Keith Richards or the like.

Hm, I think being in a band is pretty cool, but I may think that way because it's not common here. In America it might be seen different.
Of course, there's a difference in bragging and actually wanting to produce meaningful music. Or having fun or realizing an intention.
Two very different animals!

Ive been in a lot of bands and sometimes it can get ugly. It can really bring out the worst in people.

Im lucky that now im in a band with my brothers so theres no bs and egos clashing its just jamming and having a good time.

Throughout my whole life, as a performer, I've never played with a band. I've always played alone, so I was never required to stay in rhythm or anything. So it was a real different experience to start playing with a band. There were so many basic things for me to learn.

This post was meant as a joke, but Temple Keeper took it to heart, and his post is almost one in the same. hehehe...

Ive never been in a band before. I play by myself the piano/keyboards sometimes. It can be nice to be in a band, since its just like a group of friends doing what they love. But unless there was something beneficial to come out of it beyond that, I'd never go for it. Music can be done and enjoyed very well without any band.

A thing that could be nice about a band is that we can compose stuff and let each other hear it, and then share our opinions about what we composed. But for jamming/usual practice, I always prefer to do it alone. So when I'm alone, it allows me to focus on the instrument. Silence is important as well, in a band, it'd be alot of noise than doing it alone.

I got kicked out of a band for drinking beer with my right hand while I was playing the bass with my left hand. I don't recommend doing that.

Am I the only one who's never really had band arguments?
