Professionalism vs Cool Revenge?

Oh yeah, and one more thing I learned the hard way:  It takes a long time to steadily build a great reputation.  It takes one screwup delivered at the right place at the wrong time, to wreck it all in a heartbeat.

Love the responses from all you guys. If nothing else, it demonstrates a lot of freethinking going on within the clan. My two cents? Jazzyvee, you have always been gracious, respectful and just plain cool in all your posts. There's no doubt in my mind you already know exactly what to do.  
 
And it will be the right thing.
 
There are always avenues to resolve things without resorting to what's ultimately a tit for tat  response.

Professionalism vs Cool Revenge?

Well, lets just say she was shocked to say the least and more or less speechless when I came on to the stage to talk to her about the act. Like a true professional ( hahaha), I'd done my homework on the current band and got some stuff on-line about her and prepared a couple of paragraphs which I showed to her to see if she was ok with that. She was virtually silent when she saw the stuff I'd put together and had no corrections to make at all. :-)
 
Anyway I did the introduction and build up for them and they went on.  I went out front to listen and watch the show......
How were they....?  
 
Let me put it like this ... you know that saying Revenge is a recipe best served cold well let's just say they served it for me .. .out of the freezer....!!!!
 
For her to see me out front knowing the reasons I left the band about a year ago and come on stage with such an unprepared band, she must have felt me smiling.
 
AAAAh, I feel vindicated in my reasons for leaving the band she obviously   still has no idea about rehearsing a band.
 
Thankfully there were some other great performing bands there so it was a great weekend on many counts. As usual guys thanks for your words and wisdom, it is always appreciated.
 
Toma_hawk01 drop me an email let me know how you are doing with those basses man.

Good for you, Jazzy.  
 
One fact, that has yet to disprove itself, is that these sort of people always do themselves in. It's human nature. Although I love to be an accelerant to Darwinism, sometimes it's best to sit back and enjoy the carnage....

Very well put, Pace.  I agree with you 100%.  And, indeed, often the carnage show can be very very amusing.  Also, great job staying classy Jazzy.  Not easy to do...
