Simply hate it - made me wanna choke him

He didn't play a single drumstroke that was appropriate for the song and if I had been booked for a gig where this idiot turned up as the "drummer" I'd ride it out, but then tell him - in no uncertain terms - that this was our last gig together EVER! I'd make a firm note of his name and make sure that I NEVER got anywhere near him again. He's just the impersonation of un-professionalism.

Same goes for this guy:

Been there done that, with many different drummers!

As friend of mine sent me this “That's why they put them behind glass enclosures nowadays! Have you seen that? I assume that's done because most drummers have NO sense of dynamics! I would have fired him after the third hit on the drums”

Guys, this was a joke, right? You don't really think the rest of the group would play a second tune with this guy if it wasn't a joke

I really would want to think that this was a joke, but by the look on the singers- and bassplayers faces it wasn't.

Ditto! Besides being a creep!

Or maybe it was a joke. After all he was also dressed to stand out from the musicians.

Wondered that myself.

Either way, I will let no man pull me down so low as to make me *hate* him.

I just would not hire him for MY gig...

I try always to look for the positive. At least he had his fly trap open and ready. The girl on keys looked like she was about to lose it at the end, poor thing.

Bet he's run into that problem so many times that he started his own band. You'd have to be desperate to work for him though.

Well, it was good for a laugh.

The lady had some pretty good chops I'd say and nerves of steel to be able to weather the storm.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
