If you're the band leader you ask more of yourself than anyone else, so they tend to raise the bar for me.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm not a great band member; I'm more of a band leader.
The best thing about this band is I'm the leader!
It's not that I don't get on bandwagons; I just climb aboard only after most of the band has packed up and left for the next gig.
Sometimes I don't want to be in the confines of what a band seems to provide.
It's not important to how the band functions or to what we do. That's just many people's opinions on what they see. A lot of people project stuff on you, but that's okay.
It's been such a group effort. When you're a new band and you have limited resources, you end up getting people that are there because they love what you do, and that's great.
I've never treated anyone in my band like they're not on the same level as me. I'm not that kind of person.
I'm not into bands for the sake of being into bands. I've grown past that. There was a time in my life when I was that guy.
When you keep the caliber of musicians very high in the band, people are going to come and go. Some of them will be people who have to try various things, it's natural.
I've always just given myself to the band, if you know what I mean, and been busy with that.
