See, I know this can go on all week, but I also know you are a child who just needs attention. I've just given you as much time as I have for a pathetic, caustic and terrible pre-teen with such a deep understanding of everything. I don't blame you, I blame your parents. Now, really.. get some sleep.

This email/text didn't seem particularly vague to me? Also, doesn't seem like there is any anymosity at all, which is good. They were a band before you met them 4 months ago. They gave you a good run to feel out your style (4 months is a pretty lengthy trial period) and it wasn't what they ultimately wanted. Nothing about you personal, but by the sounds of it, just not what they ended up needing for their established project.

If I have one solid piece of advice? Keep thinking of these guys as friends. Don't write them off. You may find yourself in a side project with any one of them in the future. They've already half-invited you to a colaboration project, even if there is only one song so far.

Also, having spent 4 months with them should have opened at least a few doors. KEEP WRITING, KEEP PLAYING!! Don't let a set back like this ruin you. It will not be the last time this happens if you continue to make music with others, it is inevitable that conflicting ideas/personalities will pop up in any art, particularly when there is an established core that you are invited into. Sometimes they can be overcome, sometimes not.

Work on your own sound, put out feelers in the area and start a new project! Or two! Or 10!!

No band lasts forever, so don't let the end of the second one kill your spirit any more than leaving your first band did.

Again, keep writing, keep playing, keep active in the scene and stay true to your style. Your still young, it's not over yet.
