Thoughts About Quitting Playing

[bassfan]

I experienced exactly this a couple of years ago the advice on here is sound but it’s whatever works best for you. 
 

I literally left the band for 3 months. I talked to the guys (and gal) and we got a dep to cover me. Lots and lots going on at the time. Work/family/home and out every weekend with the band. 
 

We are still together. I went back with renewed love for the bass and band. 
 

Talk to them. 👍🏻

I left a few days ago. It's all amicable. Their old bassist is coming back, and I'm a standby if ever needed. 

 

It's all good :-)
