"It is important when forming your ensemble that everyone in the band enjoys working with each other, and can get along, and is committed to your group. Otherwise, many problems can occur. There have been many instances, in the past musical history,of groups getting together and having bad bread-ups due to bad communication, substance abuse, and other conflicts of interest in your band. Once example is the band The Doors. The Doors were a great group and played many shows, however, they had some issues with substance abuse and alcohol. In one instance in a concert in Miami, one of the members was so intoxicated that he couldn't even sing or perform on stage and instead made an appearance on stage and unzipped his pants and exposed himself to the public. That was the end of The Doors and the band decided to break up after that instance."
