MiltyG565 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Ok, before you all jump in with your witty replies; I messaged somebody who was looking a bassist for his band. I volunteered myself for the role. Honestly now - Am I mad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyfisher Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Good news, I hope it works out as you want it to. As for madness, it's all relative so I wouldn't give it a second thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakenewmanbass Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 do you mean to tell me that you've spent all this time here without full confirmation of your status as both stark and raving...

xgsjx Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 A colleague at my work asked if I was walking home & I said yes, they said "I'm going the same way as you", to which I replied "What? Mad.". So I suppose the new term could be "Mad as a bassist". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevB Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Just don't forget come audition time that you are checking them out as much as they are checking you out. Don't be afraid to back out if they look like a shambles, it will save you time in the long run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
