Not really new but...

Newly supporting TB'er. I joined back in 2005 but only recently started using the site a lot. So I figured I should be a supporter.
Anyway, I've been a musician all my life. Started playing guitar at 3. It was an old Kay guitar with 17 frets that my mom had been given when she was a child. I played with it for a few years but then my grandparents got a drum set for me for xmas when I was 6. The condition was that I take lessons. So my grandma took me to a weekly lesson until I was 13 and got bitten by the bass bug. I sold my kit; dual bass slingerland, deep dish and piccolo snares. Zildjian Z and K series with a few Scimitars thrown in here and there. I bought a Charvel 4 string and a Peavey TNT 130. I started playing day and night and have gone through mountains of gear since then.
I've played in tons of bands and am gearing up to move to Nashville as soon asI can find a day job there. So if you're in Nashville and have any suggestions, send 'em my way!
