''This was actually on Craigslist''

Looking for someone to kill my drummer - for $100.00.

Do not fear any negative consequences. Any self respecting law enforcement agency would gladly turn the other cheek once they hear this guy "play". I'm tired of hearing his 70's style fills put in the wrong spot and ending one half beat early or late depending on how much he's had to smoke. I am tired of him standing up behind his drums between songs and ripping his shirt off and flexing his muscles at wedding receptions where we were hired to play Air Supply, Carpenters , and Ann Murray songs because "chicks dig the pecs, dude".

I am tired of him showing up 20 minutes late for rehearsals then pouting until someone helps him load in his drums, then taking 30 minutes to set them up and needing a smoke break every 15 minutes, then wanting to leave early because" this chick is so fine, I can't say no, and she knows record people dude, so it's for the band" I am totally done with him calling me up at midnight to play me some damned jazz fusion album from 1981, crying and saying how we shouldn't have sold out to "the man"and asking if I know anyone who can get him some weed knowing full well I smoked twice in 69 and never touched it after that.

I am sick of him farting on stage where the drum mics pick it up and thinking this shit is funny.

I am tired of kicking off slow ballads at well under 80 bpm only to have them morph into the methamphetimine version of flight of the bumble bee, because that's the tempo he "feels" it at.. |

I am tired of having to carry jumper cables to the gig because "I must have left the dome light on again, dude"instead of admitting his 84 astro van is a worn out piece of crap. I am tired of him asking when he's gonna get a drum solo..

I am tired of paying his tab at restaurants because "that chick must have stole my wallet man, but it was worth it 'cause she was a phreak"..

I will not move my amp again so he can put another cymbal on stage, because "when we learn some fusion, I'll need this sound".........please somebody kill this m*therf*cker. i can't do it because he's my brother and mom would be so pissed off even though she thinks the band would probably sound better too. besides, if you are good at killing drummers, you could probably make a lot of money in this town.

Now, that's funny right there.

Drummers . . . can't live with 'em . . . can't kill 'em.

That's basically why I bought BIAB. So I wouldn't have to find a drummer, then kill him. Such a waste.

MY luck would be that the cop who showed up to investigate would BE A DRUMMER, TOO!!

There is no justice! I don't think offering the cop a job would do any good, because after 3 months, I'd need someone to kill them, too.

I'm blessed watching God do what He does best. I've had a few rough years, and I'm still not back to where I want to be, but I'm on the way and things are looking far better now than what they were!
