The Hands of Joe, that is.
Despite a remarkably successful début:
A scheduling issue due to one member having a life that needed attending to conflicting with the aspirations (i.e. need to show off) of another member led to an unbelievable outbreak of SpinalTapism. I did contemplate going along with the idea of a temporarily reconfigured lineup. When it became clear that no rehearsal would be possible, that there would be no certainty of an adequate fill-in drummer - and certainly not one familiar with the material, I backed out of the prospect of a 500+ mile round trip for a maximum half hour slot that promised to be a musical débacle.
The project is dead - so much for creative chemistry!
There's some doubt about which side of the schism holds the name - either we've been kicked out, or the ego has left the building *G*
No doubt more to come...
