Did you All Ever Play For A Band Leader? That Didn't Know How To Run A Show And Could not Be Told Any Thing Thing They Know It All? SONNY. |

More than once and it will probably happen again.
In my mind, the worst band leader of all is a drummer. |

Yeah. But I won't describe my experience because I think cussing is not allowed on the forum. |

I was usaly the band leader.I listened to ideas,but still did it my way.Must have worked because we always booked better than most others.
I've worked as a side man quite a bit and found a few band leaders that should have taken up some other form of ocupation,but most of them were OK. PJ |
