A couple of weeks ago I got in touch with a guitar player that's starting a new band. Last weekend I met and played with the two guys (guitar & bass) in the band. Both of these guys are great - musically and personally. We played for about 3 hours and it seemed simply magical. Two of the songs we played turned into 12 - 15 minute improvisational jams each and we were all just spot on. So, all this is really cool and I'm feeling really good!! So yesterday, I found out that I'm in - Yeah!!
I have one problem, however.
I had an informal audition with another band (the rhythm guitarist, actually) that I contacted about the same time as the previous one (this happened a week ago before I got together with the guys I am going to play with). Anyway, two days ago this guitar player asked if I'm available to come play with the rest of his band sometime next week (I am assuming for a formal audition). Of course, I agreed because I didn't know my exact status with the other two guys... but as of last night, I do.
So, what do I do here? What do I tell the other guy in the other band? I know this isn't exactly a first world problem here, but it's brand new to me.
I'm charting new territory and feel more alive than I have in a while.
Thanks in advance for all your advice and input!!
