Inspiration for getting back to music

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi

I used to play in a band, but got kicked out the other year and in sadness and desperation my bass has sat alone in its case for the past year. I really miss music but dont have the confidence for it any more. Any advice?

Sorry to hear, kyral.

Advice: GO TO SHOWS. You'll get the juice back. See music live, all kinds. Get out there. Your renaissance will be inevitable. If that doesn't do it, then just watch this:

I love that Wayne Kramer sings lead on this one. That weird side-step move is awesome.
