The first line-up included vocals, drums, keyboard and guitar but early attempts at trying to get musicians who were not only of a particular calibre, but also of like minds and reliable did not work out. The lack of good bass guitarists generally meant that the keyboard player would have to take over that role. Various issues with tardiness (quite common with musicians when it comes to rehearsals) and levels of incompetence meant that various members fell rapidly by the wayside and it seemed that there wouldn't be enough members around long enough to ensure that the band got out of the rehearsal room and onto the stage.
