andydye Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Welcome to basschat, with those killer endorsements you'll not too likely be that stuck into the for sale forums but there's plenty of other stuff to [s]waste your time on[/s] occupy yourself with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceChick Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Hi Yolanda and welcome! As a female bassist myself I can say you have been a BIG inspiration to me You've also given me the confidence to try a little singing (my voice is rubbish, backing vocals only) whilst playing. The tutorial video that is on YouTube of you showing how to start doing this is amazing!! Really great to have you on board.....although be warned, there is a (I assume jealous) contingent on here that like to have a pop at talented pros like yourself!! Just don't take anything to heart Debs x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassBus Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Like you need to introduce yourself here. [size=4] [/size] [size=4]And "...in case there's any interest". What? From a real bass player, not like the rest of us who just think we are.

jezzaboy Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Welcome Yolanda. So nice to have another professional bass player on here to keep the rabble like myself right . Really loved your playing with Mr Weller especially on the clip below. http://youtu.be/iRRB-MS7gJY Lovely looking P bass as well. Do you still have it/use it?

BassTractor Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Hey Yolanda, Welcome to BC! Apparently you have a lot to contribute, and I'm sure we'll be hanging from your lips trying to absorb each and every syllable. Me, I noobly have no idea who you are, so I'd ask you to please cut me some slack, so I can find out before getting jealous. BTW, people are not having pops at famous people here. That is a very, very sad misunderstanding. No fear. You'll do just fine. Enjoy the site and its banter! best, bert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiOgon Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Hey Yolanda - yeah like already said - you don't need a big introduction here, I reckon you're a bit late to the party but very very welcome. Always good to see a player of your calibre on side there's not many about (ducks for cover) Have fun, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
