Framca Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Hello everyone. I only started playing bass properly a couple of years ago having spent 30 years playing the drums; I'm hoping that properly understanding what the drummer's up to will help me be a better bass player. I'd be interested to hear from other bass playing drummers but I'd be even more interested to hear from experienced bassists who have recently taken up drums or want to take up drums - hopefully we could help each other out with our respective expertise. Looking forward to learning lots more about bass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dad3353 Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Good afternoon, Framca, and ... Plenty to read and amuse you here, and lots to learn and share. Oh dear; I hope I haven't started a trend..! Yes, there are several drummers here, either picking up the bass later, or converting to head-bashing after plucking strings. Settle in, make yourself at home and enjoy. Be warned, of course, that there are still some dinosaurs here, as everywhere, that can only remember 'drummer' jokes, without realising that there are just as many 'bassist' jokes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard R Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Welcome aboard! Bass and drums, drums and bass. Who needs the rest of them, just ear-candy at the best of times. What do you throw a drowning bass player? His amp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
