CrAzy time with BaNd people..

So I was playing with some people for a few weeks, things just were not working out " the vocalist's husband the drummer'" could not hold time or do a roll with out just falling out. He said he was just rusty , he didnt improve at all. So being that it was a package deal with the " fantastic vocal wife" and the crappy Hubby drummer, at the three week mark I let them know I appreciated the opportunity but didnt feel it was a good fit for me.
So the wife starts e-mailing over and over and calling me alternating between " how much of a quitter I am " to lets work this out. I tell her that I am just not interested and not sure why she keeps bugging me. I did some guitar repair work on two of there kids guitars, Thats how I met them. So the husband call's me and goes hey I am going to drop by the cash for the repairs you did..... I was positive he all ready paid me and told him so. He kept saying nope I still owe you. I took the opportunity to let him know his wife was bugging me over the music thing and it was getting uncomfortable.
So he stops by the house, I am mowing the lawn, he takes out $50 bucks and says, take this because I dont want anyone to say I owe you..
Being quite dumbfounded I ask ... so you did pay me before? Ya but you did us a favor on one repair so heres your fucking money. I tell him if I already charged you and you paid we are square dont trip on it were good. he tosses the money in my yard and heads to his truck. I am just staring at him, thinking what the hell is his problem is this kindergarten or what.. I say listen If your upset about me leaving the band it just wasn't working and if you remember it was a kinda trial thing anyway, wish ya the best sure you'll do fine.
So I go back to mowing the lawn, he decides to peel his truck out wheel around the corner and shouts I don't want fucking quitters in my band and almost hits my kid. He speeds down the street.
Two things happen at this point, one, I am now steaming pissed and two he didn't know he went down a dead end street and now has to go back by my house and come to a stop...
I walk up to the truck and say you realize you almost hit my kid, "ya" so I bitch slap him " thats for being a pussy and then I dot him right in the eye.. and thats for being a fucking dick and a shitty drummer. I turn and go back to mowing the lawn. ... He drove off the emails have stopped. I took the wife to dinner on the $50 bucks.
The whole thing left me with a " what the fucking hell man !"
