That's what I am asking about. Not THAT you replaced somebody, but HOW. My being an aggressive, assertive Type A personality, I would just say "You aren't good enough. Don't go on stage until you polish your game because you can't play. At all." Friend or no friend, I have to have A List players in any band I am in. The powers that be just have to be onboard and be able to separate personal from business. And in this case, they can't. They have been carrying dead weight, harmful players for years. And frankly, I am REALLY tired of it. It's just not my band to make the call on it.
