I pay them at the end of the night, and let them know that no one gets drunk.

Being in a band is just like having a girlfriend or a wife...

Jimilee, I'm not sure most people's definition of wife or girlfriend includes paying them at the end of the night ;)
With a wife, it's every two weeks, with a girlfriend.....oh you'll pay alright :p

And that's why I left the church (different scenario, but everything else was the same), but that's another thread all together.

Being in a band is just like having a girlfriend or a wife. You can do it without but then you'd just be masturbating with yourself. Musicians need to play with other musicians. And unfortunately just like a girlfriend or a wife, when they're in bitch mode the band will not be fun. But when everything is in sync the sky's the limit. And just like with wives and girlfriend the trick is in finding the right ones, and when you do to keep on working on your relationship with your bandmates.

Or you could do as jimilee, which has its advantages, although you won't really have a band but you'd be leading your own company with its employees. If any one acts up or develops a serious case of ego you can fire them, but even in the best of companies you have employees and a boss and since the former work for the latter they will never put in the same amount of effort and creativity they would if it had been their own business.

Long story short, there is no easy solution, you can only realize that you're in a relationship with other people and relationships need work to keep working well.

 So I'm playing through a Jenny Greenteeth weird chorus pedal yesterday trying to decide if I want to put it on a pedal board or build a small stone chorus. I'm getting a terrible buzzing and I narrow it down to the cable, so I pull the cable apart, fix it and plug it in. Now the pedal won't work but I have bypass. Pull the pedal apart and spend 30 minutes trying to figure out why, then I realize I have the cables plugged in backwards. Dammit!!!

That's why a band leader is essential, a room full of guys needs to have the final word. That's why I hired everyone in my last band. I pay them at the end of the night, and let them know that no one gets drunk. I've had to fire a few people as well. Sucks, but the band runs smoother.

A little earlier then expected, I was expecting something on april 1st. The joke is still on me though, I had lost my saved shopping basket with their new server upgrade.
Me too.

Get bypass working first and then go from there. Also, what kind of power adapter did you use?
