Frank Blank Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 Ok, I'll start. I was assuming someone else might but, anyway... If I spent as much time practicing bass and writing music as I did reading and commenting on Basschat I'd be a far better player! I realise/appreciate that BC is a powerful and hugely useful reference guide and tool for any bass player but hell, I spend so much time just mooching on here and essentially wasting time. So I suppose the resolution really is to practice more and, of course, that doesn't have to be at the expense of BC, I just need to prioritise. 4 Quote
josie Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 The band had a chat this morning and all agreed our collective resolution is to gig more this year than last. Which shouldn't be hard! Again it's partly a case of everyone making it a priority, and possibly letting other things be less important (little things, you know, like wives, or children, or jobs... 🙂 ) 2 Quote
Marvin Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 My band has decided to have a 2 month break. Not sure why, it's not like we have a heavy gigging schedule. It's a bad sign I think. SO! I'm going to put bands on the back burner and take the kids fishing more instead 😃 1 Quote
Lozz196 Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 I’ve decided to learn a few more songs outside of my current bands style, which is street punk/Oi. So have already started on Wuthering Heights by Kate Bush. 2 Quote
AndyTravis Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 Get an album done, do some gigs to support said album. Make no money, be happy playing music. 3 Quote

Roger2611 Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 With a lack of gigs on the horizon for both bands I am going to concentrate on getting some decent recordings of the songs we do, so it will be a case of learning the ins and outs of Reaper and learning some production and mastering skills, that and play more fretless bass again 1 Quote
HazBeen Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 Do more gigs with my originals band, fewer with the tributes ...... if possible. 2 Quote
