One of the founding members of [b]Sublime [/b]has quit the band ... again.

Moments before Sublime with Rome took the stage at The KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas concert in L.A. this weekend, drummer [b]Bud Gaugh[/b] announced the show would be his last.

When asked why he was leaving, Gaugh said, "It's a long story" ... adding, "The story is that I'm gonna be a dad here again real soon, and I just wanna be there for my family."

But the tension had been building for a while -- TMZ broke the story, Gaugh stormed off the stage at a concert last month after hurling cuss words at the band's manager, [b]Mike "Cheez" Brown[/b].

We're told the guys tried to bury the hatchet ... but it seems things finally reached a breaking point. [url="http://www.tmz.com"]TMZ[/url]
