Your hair?

Your gear?

:-)

I don't know, that's for others to answer, not I.

I'm deeply committed to becoming the best listener I can be, both to the music I'm playing and the artist I'm playing with.

Then there's the hair...

I think what Justin brings to the table is a sensibility of being able to play the right thing when coming up with basslines, a willingness to do things that are out of the ordinary, and a sense of fun mixed with a high standard of professionalism. The hair is just icing on the cake.

Gee, thanks Jimmy. I appreciate all of that!

I think that perhaps a converse, yet interesting/educational thread would be "what would Justin like to improve?"

Fixed it for you.

Well for starters get a hair cut and a proper job and stop hanging out with all those so called "musicians". Lazy layabouts, tell them to get jobs as well.

and since you won't be wasting your time with music I know the perfect place to get rid of all those ugly chunks of wood.

Well that's something you CAN answer for yourself. All I know of is you would like to improve your reading, and of course, your slapping
