Wow, I'm 50 but I still don't think I've hit 25, funny how time freezes

I just discovered this place. I began playing bass at age 14 because our little band had one too many guitarist. I soon realized that I had a sense of rhythm and was able to keep the bottom end together. Played regularly until age 22 and life and college finally got the best of me. Have dabbled back and forth in the years since. Still have my rig and a few very nice basses, especially my prize 64 Jazz.

The only thing I can really do is hold the backbeat together, sure would like to improve my technical skills before I leave this planet...

good to be here
