musicbassman Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Dear BC'ers, I've been offered an afternoon dep gig (outdoors) on 19th Sept which I can't do. Don't get overexcited, it's for charity (ie no fee) and is at a retirement village in Aldershot. Music is 40's/50's. The 40's stuff is mostly standards with walking bass lines, 50's is mostly period RnR. PM me if you're interested, I've told the BL I would try and find someone to cover this. Please only PM if you're sure you can confidently play this sort of thing straight off - there won't be any rehearsals ! You will certainly get the set list with keys well beforehand though. Ta, stay safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubit Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 It's not a paying gig but think of the exposure you will get! Thats great, it just so happens that my rent is paid for in exposures! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Burrito Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 The bar is definitely lowering. I played a local socially distanced garden party on Saturday (paid) and I was as excited to do it as I was exactly one year previously being flown out with my bass to play a festival in Norway. Upon reflection Norway was definitely better but I was grateful just to be playing again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
