most things seem to be Cambridge.
Thing is with joinmyband and the like, you don't know how much of a loony you are talking to.. and I suspect you have to kiss a lot of frogs..

There tend to be less actually decent bassists than there are guitarists so you should have a better shot at getting into a better band
I am utterly astonished at this. I rarely come into contact with anyone with this level of prejudice against weed....considering how utterly harmless it is I just don't get it.

Aside from that, turning up smelling of weed loses bands gigs; totally unprofessional. Not all gigs, of course, but even being told to sod off from one gig when you're already there is a bit shit.
Besides...I'm not convinced I'd want to be in a band with the kind of person who's perfectly comfortable driving to rehearsal, getting stoned and then driving home in the same state.
It was the bit about people at home which is ridiculously judgmental.
I agree with most of your points above as it happens.

If I was the OP I suspect their behaviour would start to annoy me and would be the beginning of the end. Things like shift work aren't very compatible with being in a band. I wonder if Ben and his band mates share the same expectations.
Certainly seems like a time for a review before carrying on. And as said it wouldn't be welcome behaviour in many venues.
I know I get a tad defensive, I'm not great at seeing other people's point, but in my defence it is usually because they are wrong
I have next to no issue with the plant itself, I'm even pretty ambivalent about the THC, the problem I have is with criminal element inherent in obtaining weed.
And lets be honest, I've not met many people who smoke weed, who haven't tried Charlie or Speed or E or........ etc

I'm certainly no Angel, I once ordered a Malibu and Coke in a public bar.....
I was young and impressionable, I was experimenting colour a lot at that point.
