It is waaaay fun. Find yourself a yoga teacher, they dig it. I play all sorts of grooves over loops (sometimes w/live percussion).

The wife is into the yoga thing...looks like I need to invest in a good looper (you're using the Boss Loop Station, right? Good choice?)!!!

My girl is a yoga teacher so its a way we can have fun creating creating together and making a difference. We donate the proceeds to our events (we have a once a month charity "full moon" yoga event) to local charities. The funny thing is I usually refer to them as "shows" and my girl calls them meditations, flows, etc... Its pretty funny, she gives me a funny look when I say "got to gear up for the show"...

The RC-20XL is what I am currently using right now, I sampled some short drum loops and ambient sounds. I just sold the GTB-6 in the picture, was only using the delay on that so I am moving back to pedals (Boss OC2, DOD FX25, EHX small clone, and currently searching for a nice delay pedal).

I mainly start with some washy delay floaty stuff, then do into some dub grooves for a good bit, switch over to some funky grooves, then start bringing it down with harmonics and chordal stuff. A good two hours of fun on the bass.

Those pics are outstanding - thanks for sharing!

A saxophonist I play with does similar stuff - he's very into yoga (and his girlfriend runs a studio) and photography. His work as a musician and a photographer is stunning. I think the fourth one - from behind, showing your left hand - is my favorite. Undeniably Roscoe for those in-the-know, and the boket is perfect. The right stuff is in focus, and everything else supports it...man I love what a good photographer can do!

That's a pretty unique gig, I dig the pic of the back of your SKB's neck.

The pictures of the bass are nice and every thing. But dude. More chick pictures! What's wrong with you?


Just kidding. Looks like a real cool gig.
