as everyting in life.... dont be an asshole
if you are friendly and easy to work with and a good overal person, then your spot is secured. IF th band(or even one person), dont like your "friendly attitude" then you were better off without that band, then they were the assholes and you prob never gonna call that specific guy ever again for any future bands in years to come no?... see what I mean?, dont be that guy, you never know who would you encounter later in life
one of the reasons studio musicians gets called back over and over, is because they are easy to work with. Same goes with studio assistant, any tipe of helping hand, assistant job, live sound, roadie, or in your case a band member, even a replacement guy. I got friends who they arent technically the best players out there, but they are part of the band just because they are nice ppl. They always being the guy who get called to do merch, until one day they needed a replacement for a gig and boom now hes in the band
be a nice guy
also like meany other have said. Learn to swallow your words and to take criticism, and how to give it too. Iin other words, elave the ego behind
and practice!, learn your stuff and practice.... no matter how good guy you are if you cant learn the songs... duh just dont be the guy who drags the practice and waste time becasue you ddint learn the songs.
A band practice is NOT to learn the songs, is to practice playing the songs as a band to amke them sound tighter and better
