Good call. You definitely need to let some time pass.My intention last night was to let the leader know I was leaving after the gig. I arrived early to set up and when the leader arrived, he told me he almost cancelled the gig. His dad is dying and he had been sitting with him all day in hospice. He wasn't sure his dad was going to make it through the night. I didn't think, "sorry about your dad, by the way, I'm quitting the band" was appropriate so I guess I'll wait a little while longer to let him know.
only thing i wanna add is make sure all your gear is accounted for before you let anyone know your intentions.. just human nature being what it is and such...
What he said. Made the right desicion.Good call. You definitely need to let some time pass.
