But we’ve decided after 10 years of gigging our own songs that we’d try our hands at a cover set for a bit. Normally singer plays the bass, but for the covers I’m going to give the bass a try and let him just handle the vocals and we’ll change to a one guitar band.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Really enjoying playing some of the bass lines, which to be honest can be a lot more interesting than the usual rhythm guitar I’m doing. Obviously some of it is quite challenging, but I am getting stuck in and have been practicing at home a lot more than I have done on guitar in recent years. Hopefully won’t be long until I’m playing regular gigs as a bassist.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Cheers.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] Quote
