SINKING DEEPER
As inter-band issues take their place in my ever growing weight above me, I exert myself to keep myself standing. Looking to the ground for help i dig my feet deep. With the ground giving no response, i sink deeper into the slowly forming pit.
I guess everyone's different. We all think differently, act differently, like different things. Sure you might say a band should think as one and support one another, but i guess this doesn't hold true for all band of brothers. Maybe this is why bands dissolve in the end.
An analogy,
Two rivals. Who compete in different subject examinations on different days.
Rival one realizes he has forgotten to bring a pen for his examination and approaches rival two to borrow one. Rival two knows clearly that he does not have need of a pen on that day because his examination falls on another day. By refusing to lend his rival a pen he could well have won the competition, but by lending the pen he could jeopardize his chance of being the best.
Would you lend you pen if you were Rival two?
I don't understand why rivals can't shake hands and help each other. I mean if you want to win that badly, do it on an equal playing field. At least then you can say you really won the battle fair and square.
Is lending a hand to OHM and playing for them really that unacceptable? To me, this isn't a question of loyalty. CALM is still first priority for me. What i am doing is a mere favor to OHM. Helping out a fellow band. Taking a chance to gather more performing experience before our actual gig. Is that unacceptable? Unworthy of your support?
Sigh...guess i'll never understand what they hold against my friends in OHM.
