1st Gig

Well been away for a while and though I would share with you all ....

"Hi my name is Dave....and I am a bass player..."

Played my first gig last week and and things went off really sweet, the small but enthustiac crowd were left wanting more and so did the band, I was pumped up for days after, playing is the perfect contrast for my RL job.

I would have to say it was the most fun I have had with my clothes on and cannot wait for the next one.


BTW looks like we will all get to do a solo at the start of each set, any ideas on a good, funky easy bass solo? I am thinkig about "Little Green Bag"

Just listen to Mothers Milk and Freakey Styley by RHCP and you'll have aload of stuff to try.

Great! Also check out the Lemon Song (dunno if it counts as easy but there aren't any flashy techniques in it or whatever)

Well that's cool.

The main groove from "Too Young To Die" by Jamiroquai could work as a solo, I think.

You could always try Ode To Joy..
