    That guitar player was a pillock.

    Or was it the keyboard player.

    I'm not sure I know what a pillock is.

    What did he do wrong?

    He booked a recording session for Tuesday in a HUGE warehouse without asking the band or engineer first?

    Personally I don't care if band mates get a glow on before the gig. Just as long as they can still play. I've been known to have a few barley pops before hitting the stage but not to the point of being useless like that guy was. Horrible. Absolutely horrible... and yeah, I've had to deal with it many times. It's always a let down.
