: All bassists are not saints
Hey I wasn't trying to imply that my shit doesn't stink
: think about it - everybody thinks bass is the easiest instrument to play, but man... It's such a difficult art form in itself and, it's true: Most often, nobody gives a shit if the bass is good, but if it is bad, people notices instantly. Guitarists don't have that problem, it's just bad noice as always LOL
I agree 110%
: Hey, easy now... I don't think, haven't ever noticed, that the bassists usually is blamed for playing wrong even though it was someone else...
man, you must have jammed with some musicians from other planets :) I keep running into these "Yngwie" guitarists heh
: If a musician is blamed for playing wrong, he most often "deserves" it (in lack of a better word), no matter what instrument.
yep
like every other musician, I have those f'ed up days/nights where my mind is elsewhere and my hands feel like jelly. when I blow, I blow...and I'm honest and upfront about it. what I DON'T do is act like a little spoiled brat and start blaming other guys in the band or throwing fits or tantrums
: So just groove on, and good luck, datsgor and the rest of you folks out there... And remember: just my humble 2cents... Peace, Preben
cheers
