Rising Tensions

Our band, Nightmare's Riot, is having some complications and tensions are rising between band members...

Our guitarist, Tomas, has been grounded numerous times over the course of the times we have been together as a band (which has been almost four years). And it's getting REALLY old. So old to the point where our drummer, Christian, wants to either A) leave the band OR B) fire Tomas. And because I'm still in the band, that eliminates Option A, which only leaves Option B.

This is a crucial breaking point for our band. We haven't fired anyone from the band in two years. Honestly, firing our only guitarist from the band is gonna be a difficult thing to do. Christian is totally up to do so, but I don't know how we can handle without a guitar player.

So I told Christian that we should wait until we find a replacement guitarist who will be dedicated to the band and can learn all of our songs. The problem is, we don't know anybody like that...

And it's gonna be a wierd and difficult adjustment for the band. I have been playing with these same guys since the band's beginning and I can't imagine playing and making music with someone else. I just can't...
