   You just finished mentioning that those first versions aren't very good   
   musically, clearly indicating that the Quality of the demos Does mattter - a   
   Lot actually, which is why I at least recorded my demos with 5 tracks - to   
   give an idea of how the song will sound when performed with a band, i.e. not   
   solo.   
      
   Because I don't want some prospective lead hearing my tunes and saying;   
   'they sound like they might, possibly have some potential' rather than   
   saying WOW!!! THEY'RE ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!! ;)   
      
   And speaking of which, I'm only one half verse and one chorus away from   
   completing tune #41, "It's Already Here", the 5th song on the currently   
   under construction and yet to be titled 4th album...only 7 more tunes to go!

   Why do you put it in those terms? "ending the band'...as though you're the   
   one doing it when it's the band that's doing it themselves.

   Yeah, it seems like all that crap all comes at once or in rapid succession.   
      
   > I'm reasonably stable, save that I will fly into a rage if provoked   
   > sufficiently .....   
      
   I'm waaaaaay past that - if I'm sufficiently provoked, I'll just fly, AWAY!   
   As for being stable, I'd say I'm just about as stable as it's possible to be   
   while being Tortured!!!   
      
   > this weeping and shit is worrysome.   
      
   I've got much more than all so many reasons to gush uncontrollably, totally   
   break down and lose it, but if I did, I'll be a totally debilitated basket   
   case and wouldn't be able to function, which if carried past a very small   
   point, would mean I wouldn't be able to survive either...and it's been that   
   way for every one of my 62 trips around the sun, my whole so-called 'life'.   
      
   > it is a bit of a mess, isn't it ?   
      
   More than merely a mess, it's a Hell on earth!   
      
   > at this point, it's just down to the divorce.   
      
      
   Jim   
      
   Divorce? For a band? ;)   
      
   Nope, not in this case, because from what you've mentioned, they were never   
   'married' ;)
