Leckie Gilman Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 i used to play bass in the early days of gilman. i am not a bass player turned guitarist so don't get all uppety i was forced because i was the smallest (true story by the way).i never enjoyed playing bass ever altough i enjoyed being in a band with my friends.if you're that bothered you can hear my talents as a bass player on our recording of "backseat ride" (which might not be released again) on the tam o shantie compilation.i have one copy left. it's a pretty rad cd by the way.

Tav Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 Bass is alright but guitar has always appealed more to me...hence why I just bought a new guitar and I am no focusing all my efforts on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RF Scott Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 bass isn't cool, its just a tool, like guitar, drums et al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camie Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 Depends what you listen to. If you love bass but only play simple basslines like Blink stuff etc then you will get bored. Bass is really cool once you get into it properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RF Scott Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 Depends what you listen to. no it doesn't. you imply that bass is "cool" if you listen to one sort of music, but not if you listen to another. tsch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camie Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 no im saying bass will be boring if you try to learn really simple and boring stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RF Scott Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 no im saying bass will be boring if you try to learn really simple and boring stuff. well no, you were implying that. and of course it's going to be boring if you learn "boring stuff" ?!also, it doesn't matter if its simple. Its whether it sounds good and is fun to play. simple stuff can be fun to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicky Ca$ino Posted February 8, 2004 Report Share Posted February 8, 2004 The bass is easy to play but you do tend to get lumped in with the drummers in social situations and no-body wants that. Also, you have to be really tall and/or good-looking to be a bassist. I think it's a tradition, or an old charter or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
