what's the worst you have seen in regards to the band's experience? Have you ever seen a band fall apart in the studio?

The worst scene is when a band has a bunch of unspoken or passive/aggressive tension bubbling along in the background, but they've kept their [censored] together long enough to get into the studio. Once the session is winding down, in the last couple of days, the gloves start to come off and little complaints can turn into real freak scenes. I once saw a drummer quit a band while I was making him a cassette copy of the final master, over an argument about whether or not the last song should fade out a few seconds faster.

Obviously, that isn't why he quit. He quit because he couldn't stand being in the band, but this argument happened at a point where he could use it as cover. That's the sort of thing that I've seen happen.

[censored] like overdoses and tantrums, that only happens with childish rockstars of the type I seldom encounter.
