Editor, BASS PLAYER | | | | | Bass Player LIVE! in Los Angeles, October 20-21
Friends,
Just want to make sure you all know about Bass Player LIVE!, which is returning to Los Angeles in just a couple weeks.
Pretty amazing lineup -- Chris Squire and Aston "Family Man" Barrett will be on hand to perform and accept BP Lifetime Achievement Awards, and Robert Trujillo will treat attendees with a exclusive preview of the Jaco film he is producing. Jaco's son Johnny (and possibly some of his siblings) will be there to accept a posthumous Lifetime Achievement Award for Jaco.
On the clinic front, too much to list here, but check out the site for the most up-to-date schedule: bassplayer.com/live.
This year's exhibit floor will be the biggest we've had yet, with a bunch of new manufacturers showing off gobs of killer new gear.
If you're in the area -- or can get there -- you owe it to yourself to make it out. It's a pretty incredible event!
If you have any questions, post them here and I'll do my best to reply. Cheers!
Best,
Brian |

There are definitely artists I want autographs from, do they have autograph books/programs for this, or do I need my own crap to sign? Also, do people usually bring a bass or leave them at home?
Thanks in advance!! |

Thanks in advance!! | We'll have programs there that people have used in the past for autographs. Just be sure to bring your own Sharpie!
Best to leave your bass at home. Clinics are Q&A/performance format for the most part. And there will be plenty of basses in the exhibit room for you to get your fix. 
See you there! |

At any rate, if you can make it, the discount code FANBASS will give you 25% off...

And seeing the family was pretty moving!
