For me, the time and effort of putting a band together means that it better be what I like, or why bother.
True true
I finally got so sick of being the guy who did all the work so I found some guys that needed a guitar and let their guy do all work.He sets the practices up,supplies the place to jam,the gear,etc.Works out good for me - no stress !All Dead too.
Of course I still set up jams on the side and search craigs list for jam mates.
If the bass guy and drummer (i.e the rhythm section)arent swinging - LATER.
Wont matter how good the Jerry licks are or how good the singer is if it aint got that swing.
Good luck
If you realize you are one of the people mentioned, or you may know one of the people mentioned. I can say that it has been a privilege and a pleasure to play with everyone I have played with, and that I have drawn inspiration, knowlege, support and friendship from all of them along the way. My words are not meant to discredit any person or band I have been involved in.
Dude - way to cover your ass !
