OK, I get that having somebody that is "the boss" could be a drag and make it not fun, but how do you keep things from floundering? I feel like I'm trying to herd cats! :-). At the moment, I'm stepping back and letting the others figure out what is going on. Er

I'm in this for fun, but I also want to accomplish something. Otherwise, I feel like I'm wasting my time.

Hey there rich,IMO I think there should not be any band leader .".I think what really makes a band a good a good band,is haveing all band members being on the same page as your self.....if u and ur band mates can not even agree on the songs to play,that's a big red flag IMO ,thats what managers are for......u don't want a band member acting as a manager....best regards
