Heads up that we received a complaint about Daryl being emotionally abusive
to Jill and being an asshole. Also the same person expressed concern
with their band name - Harm and the concept of talking about self-harm
which is triggering.

The person who sent the concern sent it to me and Lindsay, and it was sent
by Kate from Want.

Kate has two concerns:

"-he's an asshole who's talking shit about me [Kate], my partner [Andrew
from black pills], and my band [WANT]
-he's a legit abuser and Jill is his victim"

Jill doesn't feel like a victim but I'm hoping to talk to her in person to
feel the situation out better.

For now, I don't think Daryl should bottomline any shows beyond what he has
been assigned to. I've heard he's quite moody, dramatic and can be a dick.
That said most people who say this don't think he's abusive, but rather
just a really negative person. To stay on the safe side, I think we should
drop him as a bottomliner?

I also am fucking flabbergasted that people can't talk to eachother and
work out their own fucking problems. I'm not mad thatKate  brought this up,
I think she did what she thought was best but I'm also confused why people
come to us so much. I feel like the shit talk is really between them,
and it's Vancouver, shit talk is as normal as the rain.

Positive thing is this asserts why I need to step away from the space. Away
from scene shit. Ideally off a cliff.

(Obviously last sentence is a joke...)
