lownote Posted November 28, 2018 Posted November 28, 2018 Anywhere else notice a boom in the number of bass players? When I first went to my blue jam 6 or so years ago I sometime had the whole evening to myself, which was great. Now there's almost (almost) as many bassists turn up as gits. And the standard is pretty high too. Is this Scott Devine's influence, or a general swell in interest? Quote
Mykesbass Posted November 28, 2018 Posted November 28, 2018 Yes, seems that way. Sometimes think about taking a guitar, as there are sometimes not as many of them! Quote
Mickeyboro Posted November 28, 2018 Posted November 28, 2018 Round our way the guitarists bring their new Les Pauls, retirement gifts to themselves, and learn how to play the 3 chord trick in public. Don’t suppose a new Precision has the same appeal... my ‘competition‘ is mostly returning oldies. Not kids Quote
lownote Posted November 28, 2018 Author Posted November 28, 2018 I’d hazard a guess a large proportion of Scotts students, are like me, in the final quartile not kids. Quote
Bilbo Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 I have less gigs now than in any time since I was 17 (am 55). I love the gigs I do but would like some more please!! Quote
