Fret it, I personally can’t stand playing open strings unless absolutely required.

 

 

I agree. I avoid open strings other than E, or if the particular riff requires it!

do A if you move around a lot onstage adding to the stage energy, smile and make eye-contact with the audience, freeing up your arm to wave or point at folks

 

do B if you just stand near the drummer throughout the night

Or snarl and look agressively like a moody psycho, my preferred option to the above😂

 

Im glad at least one person saw that I was just being humorous

That's the problem for bassguitarist - 50%  of humour is being automatically lost when going onstage !

Open A string but use your plucking hand make it sound like you're playing the fretted note

You should have it sussed by the time the song ends.
