Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : So I'm a amateur guitarist/bassist. I absolutely love music, and I practice intensively, I really want to be one of the best one day. However, I'm relatively new in town and I don't know the music scene at all. I know one guy, and me and him have occasionally played with his brother. His brother is nice enough, but he also has autism and some sort of developmental disability. This makes interacting with him awkward, since he has no concept of social interactions basically, and even more awkward around others. The first time I met him he pointed out (within earshot) that the girl in front of us was transgender, and called her "he" and talked about her old name and stuff. I was mortified, but the girl was really nice about it.

That night, when we were playing a set he came in, blood dripping down his forehead from a cat scratch. He was dressed in everyday clothes, had not memorized the lyrics, and as I found out, was not a very good singer. He ended up messing up the song, and me and his brother basically had to cover for him with solos and stage maneuvers, but after that I'm not interested in playing with him. 

As I said, he's nice, though he makes things really awkward often. He's also a terrible singer, and has bad stage presence. I know gigs are not many for a kid with no connections, but I don't want to play in his band, though I feel obligated because of his brother and I's friendship. He's been messaging me non-stop and has been calling me more than my own family the last week, and I don't want to play with him.

It's obviously not gonna go anywhere.

AITA here, especially since part of my reasoning is his mental disabilities....
