I love this gain
"My girlfriend gets mad at me if I don't go pick her up from work" (she's got a car and lives 5 min walking! and we all had gf's in that situation or worse)
Worst excuses you've ever heard from fellow bandmates....

I should probably tell you, that exercising lowers blood sugar, so if he was using playing drums as a reason to need insulin, he totally trolled you.

"Sorry I missed practice, I slept too late"
When practice was at 6:30 in the evening and no he did not work second shift because he didn't have a job.

I've had a vocalist show up late to practice (just about every time, by like an hour or more), then of course he acts like he doesnt want to be there at all, and to top it off says "Guys can we hurry and plow thru the set, I have a raid (WoW?) at 8:00."

God damn, I hate WoW...but I know a few pretty hot nerdy girls who love it...
The guitar player in my former band once came late to the practice, our bass player
asked what happend, he replied: "I had to fuck your sister", yeah we all thought it was
an excuse because the sister of our bass player lived 250km away, but we didn't know
that she visited her parents the evening before and went to a party that night were
our guitar player was, too...it wasn't an excuse, we all laughed pretty hard about that
besides our bass player
Our drummer once just said "I had to take a shit and wasn't able to unlock the toilet door
after it"
Our lead guitar player didn't even find excuses most of the time he was just like:
"dudes, sorry, ahmmm, I was just to high to get to the bus station" (that was directly
in front of his house...).

My band members hadn't shown up for an hour at rehearsals(I called them but they didn't answer.).. so i left the rehearsal and went to an other friend for coffee.
About 30 minutes later i get a phone call: "Oh man, we're so sorry! We are on our way now.. are you still there?"
Me: "Yeah, i'm waiting." (I wasn't.. i was just fucking with them for revenge.)
2 hours later i get a phone call.. i was expecting them to be mad at me because i wasn't there, but then the drummer said: "We'll be there in 20 minutes, [name of our vocalist] have to stop by for ice cream first.".

Well DUH. I mean, EVERY singer should eat ice cream before singing metal. Warming up vocal chords is for wimps. Ice cream...that's METAL!

Came to practice one night and met the drummer at the door. Opened up and starting getting in tune when he let loose with a string of profanities the likes of which I've never heard since. His drums were covered with bits of candy. Stuck to the heads, in between the heads and the rings, down the sides, on his sticks, in the fucking chains on his kick pedals, literally everywhere on the kit had bits of candy stuck on it. He somehow managed to rage-dial our bass player, who laughed and said that he'd been there without us the night before with his kid sister, who sat at a $3500 drum kit and played it with lollipops.
Our other bass player cost us several gigs because he'd smash his bass on stage (because it was out of tune) and couldn't afford to replace it for a few weeks. I typed that correctly...it happened several times.

Drummer plays riff for too long and does a fill 2 bars into next riff.
us: dude just count 2 and then play a fill for the last two counts. then you have 4! thats how the riff works.
Drummer: YOU GUYS JUST DONT GET IT! counting is hard!
Us: FACE PAlM chuckle combo.

All guitar players. Go figure.

When Marcus and I were practicing for the Apex Predator project, our drummer would bail on a regular basis.
The lamest excuse was "My little (he was in a fraternity) is smoking weed for the first time today I have to smoke with him".
I'm usually all in favor of this, but when used as a blatant excuse for ditching practice it's just sad.
The most irritating is when we left him voicemails and facebook messages stating that we have practice at a specified date and time and it was made clear we would be by at this time to pick up him and his kit. We call the day of, no answer. We call bullshit and swing 'round to his dorm anyway. We clearly see the light to his room is on, and we call again to no avail. I think Marcus actually went in and knocked on his door too.
He calls hours later saying he just woke up (like 10-11pm) and he's been super busy and hasn't checked his phone or facebook in days.
Funny part is that I brought up the fact that he had posted shit on facebook multiple times during that time period, and Marcus went on a vicious tirade of profanities whilst having dinner at our roommate's granparents house
Oh man, I had (probably voluntarily) forgotten like half of that - what a cockbag, good riddance (and sorry Gramma Boise
)

Old fart on this board
My old drummer met some woman in a bar and she would have wanted them go to her place afterwards. "I can't, I have a band practise tomorrow."
Guitarist bailed out of a gig (about month before) that we knew about over 6 months in advance. He'd been in a new job for a month or two and said he couldn't get the day off (the gig was on tuesday). He had not even asked. The other guitarist was in school on the other side of the country so that was acceptable. So we did the gig as a trio with me (bassist) and the drummer on acoustic guitars, and with a replacement singer.
