This was what did me in finally. We went through so many lineup changes, couldn't find a guitar player that fit. I think it was because our rhythm section was a challenge to play with. The drummer had a massive kit with acoustic and electronic together and a double pedal. He even had a pedal board unto himself loaded up with loop stations and stomp boxes because for some reason the brain didn't give him enough options. Last time I saw him play he inexplicably had two snares. I still have to ask him what that was about.

And our bass player played a six string bass like it was a guitar. Lots of chords and riffing, not so much with the runs. Though he did slap like a mofo.

It was hard for me to find room to sing half the time. I think if we could have found someone who played really good slide it would have been sweet. But you can't do that all the time on every song.
