I'm guessing this has yet to materialize. I found a group on meet.com that meets up to jam twice a month for the most part at Orileys pub. There appear to be a few bassists, a drummer, couple of guitar players, a couple of vocalists, etc. Haven't met with them yet, but hoping to make their next jam session on the 24th of this month. I'm a beginner bassist (only been playing for a month) but want to get out to meet, play and learn from other musicians.

DFW bassist wants to join in reindeer games

Hello everypeoples. What's up with the DFW bassists? Is there an official mailing list that I need to get my email address to? Or just subscribe to this thread? Or is there another official DFW thead? Or what?

this thread is fine... there is an older one from ... a while back...

yeah i never called the venue mentioned ... we need to figure something out

i think we should have a bass off ... everyone gets 30 seconds to play a solo... we cast a ballot ... winner gets a beverage of their choice.. and bragging rights

who's down for a bass off?


i stole this idea from somewhere... can't remember where though

NTGTG in McKinney Again?

Hey TC, there is a new music venue around the corner from The Cadillac. I can line up a Thursday night at either venue. The Caddy or the new venue, The Grotto. The Gotto is smaller but has a killer PA and lighting. The stage is small though. (right FishTX?) How about a date like mid October? I'd have an easier time reserving tables at The Grotto. The Caddy is so busy now, they won't reserve tables anymore. Let's set the date, I'm make new NTGTG TB bumper stickers. Let me know!

I'm new to TB but I would enjoy a GTG with fellow DFW area bassists. I reside NW of Fort Worth but would be happy to travel to a GTG.

Let's set a date, place and time and I'll do my best to be there.

Yes, The Grotto has a very tiny stage (I mean really small)...It holds 4 people MAX (with minimal gear)...They do have a PA, but the monitors are terrible, and the sub is above and behind the stage (weird setup). I hear it sounds OK out front. I'd be up for another Bass hang though.

Overdue bump. Im out in grand prairie/Dallas (DBU) and would totally head out to any get together in the DFW area! I dont know that many bars (underage) but I know the booking agent at Tomcats west in fort worth on Alta Mere drive, and I could see what he could do?

We have been tossing around another GTG at the Cadillac Pizza Pub in McKinney. I'd like to get it in before the end of the year. Just to keep the vaguely "annual" bonus points.

I know we could use the Cook Center down here in Corsicana. It's no bar though. But it's a little more centrally located if people from Waco or Tyler wanted to attend. An hour closer to Houston too for any of those folks. Just an idea. I can check on pricing if there's interest.

Let's set the date! I got the Cadillac on notice for a Thursday night. How about like 2nd Thursday in Dec?
Is that too soon?
