What Progress Has Been Made After 449 days?!?

Okay, it's now been 449 days (1 year, 2 months, 3 weeks, 2 days) since I lamented about not having found my Ideal Band in this post: http://prhmusic.blogspot.com/2018/05/gorgeous.html.Complete the following section on Friday, August 23, 2019. All answers are in red.

1. Am I a member of any Band?
• Yes
• No
• N/A
• Additional Notes
• I selected both "Yes" and "No" because I didn't design the question to include my current state of waiting to find out if I am in a band or not. Here's what happened. 
• On Tuesday, August 13th, I auditioned for a band in Washington, IA. 
• On Thursday, August 15th, I followed up with the band - no decision. 
• On Thursday, August 22nd, I followed up with the band - no decision, but I was told they will make a decision about their new drummer by the end of next week. Thus, I should know if I am in an Ideal Band by September 1, 2019 (at the latest!) 
• Editor's Note: The band chose the other drummer
2. Is the Band my Ideal Band, meaning
• Yes - I am satisfied with the setlist and the band members I play with in the Band.
• No - I am not satisfied with the setlist and the band members I play with in the Band.
• N/A - I am not in a band.
• Additional Notes
• See above. If I had become the drummer for the band based in Washington, IA, by today, I would have selected "Yes - I am satisfied with the setlist and the band members I play with in the Band."
• Editor's Note: The band chose the other drummer
3. I am currently playing in a band but also still searching for my Ideal Band.
• Yes - I play in a band, but I am still searching for my Ideal Band
• No - I play in a band, but I am not searching for my Ideal Band
• N/A - I am not in a band.
• Additional Notes
• See above. If I had become the drummer for the band based in Washington, IA, by today, I would have selected "Yes - I play in a band, but I am still searching for my Ideal Band."
• Editor's Note: The band chose the other drummer
4. In the last 449 days, I have auditioned to be the drummer for  ____ bands.
• 0
• 1-5
• 6-10
• Additional Notes
• I really need to do a better job of logging when I go to an audition. I can only think of 2:
• On April 1, 2019, I auditioned for a band in Central City.
• On Tuesday, August 13th, I auditioned for a band in Washington, IA.
• Editor's Note: The band chose the other drummer
• There were a couple of jam sessions both in my basement and at James Goodrich's house as well as a lot of email conversations with other bands that never materialized.
5. In the last 449 days, I have played ____ gigs (do not include playing drums at Saint Thomas More at Mass!)
• 0
• 1-5
• 6-10
• Additional Notes

• On April 2, 2019, I was told I was their drummer.
• On April 8, 2019, I played at Pitcher's in Marion with that band.
• Damn! That was a lot of fun!! I'm sad that I didn't continue playing with that band...
