What do you do when things don't work out? I invited a great guitar-playing friend to i am Fool drummer John's big birthday party/jam. He arrived 3-1/2 hours later than he said he would, with the party winding down and 4/5 of i am Fool had just started playing a set of our originals. 

I shouted, "Hello!" from the stage when I saw him - but he'd come in without a guitar, and sat and watched for a while, then left...

We all felt bad. I felt particularly bad, because I had invited another musician friend, who left shortly after the music started. Two-for-two disappointed at not playing, and, on my end, disappointment as well. 

But - they both could have played, if they wanted to. There was little organization to this 'jam session' - which turned out to be just a one-short rehearsal for the band, with nobody else getting up on stage. 

I feel I should apologize, but for what? I invited them to a party, there was playing, they could have joined in, and chose not to.

So, I'm blameless, its over, yet there's this lingering sense that I disappointed.
