Dwarfishh Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 So next week I have a gig with a couple mates at a corporate/charity event for a set playing blues and swing during lunch, and another one there the following day. After the thursday show I have to get on a train straight away to catch a bus to my normal bands gig at a music based pub. 3 gigs in 2 days. I think that's pretty good. Plus I get to play songs in the 'Blues Brothers'. SO EXCITED!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deleted35362 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 good, good. HEY, there's aallllways a good amount of demand for bassists in bands. if you're a guitarist, it's definitely in your best interest to take up the bass as well so you have the leverage to get into all these bands that...pretty much have every piece of their band covered except for bass.

Yeah. The main difference between guitar and bass is that you can play bass drunk. :D (Not that I'd do something like that...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can tell you from experience that this is untrue. At least you arent gonna be playing it well that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dwarfishh Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 (edited) I can tell you from experience that this is untrue. At least you arent gonna be playing it well that way. It was just a joke. I do actually find lead guitar easier, then bass, then rhythm guitar (Damn my tiny hands!!) But I find most basslines fairly easy to play with some level of intoxication. (Mostly due to the rhythmic nature, as opposed to melody or harmony.) This is, of course, unless slap bass is involved, then I just cry to myself until the end of the song...

I guess it's just because I enjoy it more. Plus, I'm better at stuff like pinch harmonics than slap bass... Been playing guitar a lot longer than bass. I'm grade 8 standard guitar, but around grade 5 bass... Edited December 4, 2013 by eggs4king Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deleted35362 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 not a good thing, but even being in that group of yours is an opportune position to be in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwarfishh Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 There's still the 2 on thursday. We had 2 shows at the same corporate event, and we gave one up, so it's not too bad. The pub with my main band is still happening as well, which is the most important! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
