I was tossed out of a hip hop funk band for "not being black enough"
that is hilarious! im sorry man... but i just LOLed. i heard the same thing from my current bass players old band. my bass player, drew, is white, and replaced their black bass player. the bands reason for his replacement was that he "did not play like a true black man." he showed up at their next gig to watch and saw white drew in a black band and was furious. got up on stage and started yelling at drew and the lead singer. drew was terrified.
its weird how these things happen.
right now i am replacing the drummer for a bands summer tour. while the band is really excited about summer, he has been complaining about the road and making small threats about being done with it all. they have been auditioning new drummers but havent told him. i kinda feel bad, but he has put unnecessary stress on the rest of the band. my first show with them is this friday... well see what happens then.
