I am getting tired of replying to bands or musicians looking to jam. I converse with them over email and when it comes time to actually jam I never hear from them again. I'll reply let's jam on this day, and thats the last time I get any emails. This is really frustrating because I think I finally get to play and nothing!

It's the apathy that plagues the majority of musicians.

One thing I am sure of though, if they cant focus emselves on a jam date, they probably aint worth jamming with.

Having exactly the same problem at the moment. Got a audition on the 6th, aside from that no one will set a date.

This happens so often. I don't know if they're just tire kickers checking out the scene, but when it comes down to it no one ponies up. The talk the talk but no ones walkin'

The anonymity of a keyboard seems to bring out the "Walter Mitty" in every cheese-dick who ever dreamed of strapping on a Strat and fronting a band.

There may be some of them right here on this forum......

A lot of these guys are wankers and dreamers that are so used to wasting their own time that it matters little to them if they waste someone elses. They get to say to friends etc."I'm jamming on such and such a date and we're going to be big."They are all for planning but when it comes to working at it they couldn't be bothered.I hate poseurs.
