i've been thinking about doing the same thing. we recently drafted a friend of ours to play drums, mostly because i was juggling saxophone, drums, and electronics at the same time too often (and also because he has a truck), but he doesn't have a lick of music in his bones and can't play outside of a 4/4 rock rhythm and has no concept of tension or repose in music or anything like that. also, at times it feels like our singer is just keeping us for his back up band or something like that when his singing and same method of guitar playing may be what scares people away from us. everyone says that i'm wasting my time with this and that i should focus on doing solo work or working with someone different. i don't know.

the moral of the story? take his bass and kill him.
