Detroit Bass Players, Great Show

[blue]

The show is tops. It's raw, real and has a lot of heart.

If you have 30 minutes you can spare check it out

Personally I love it.

Here's one of the really good episodes.

This episode is good too, but it's over an hour.

These younger folks seem much smarter than my generation when we were young.

I came across this show a while ago. I particularly liked the interview with Kevin Chown - an interesting insight in what it is to be a working pro rock bass player in the modern world...

It's a means of attracting interest from people browsing the internet by using enticing and sometimes wholly inappropriate words in a hypertext link just to get "cash for clicks" or search engine ratings.

"Clickbait is a pejorative term describing web content that is aimed at generating online advertising revenue, especially at the expense of quality or accuracy, relying on sensationalist headlines to attract click-throughs and to encourage forwarding of the material over online social networks."

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I mentioned it because of this recent topic;

On reflection it wasn't all that witty, sorry.

Got it.

I'm not sure where I stand in this issue. I'm not sure Detroit Bass Players uses click bait. I didn't notice it.

I didn't really think so either. They're all far too cool to need it. I mean, they've got word of mouth going for them because it is good content for us lot.

Agreed,

Interesting insight.Kevin talks about getting to know people is in terms of getting gigs and that he's never auditioned.

Thing is, I have run into a wall trying to get to know even our local heavy hitters. They are a closed bunch. I say , screw them I gig more than most of them anyway.

The thing I like about Detroit Bass Players is the diversity of styles and skill level.

It's not all about the 5 year old Asian female than can blow away "Teen Town".
