Hi everybody.
I've just received the link below in my e-mail, which points to a recent interview with Stew McKinsey featured in the South African Bass Players Collective website. I looked for it in TB and seems that nobody has talked about it, so I thought it would be cool to share it with the TalkBass community. Really cool, Stew!

thanks for the kind words! I was really flattered when Martin contacted me about doing the interview and he's just a very cool guy. it's wild to me that people want to know this stuff, but I'm really glad!

I had to take a break from the session for the album to make this trip out to L.A., butit works out better because... my new Bee will be available for use on the disc once I return home! with the Conklins and the Bees I'll have 4 basses and a total of 34 strings at my disposal. my fiendish master plan is coming together nicely!
the album should be complete and ready to go by early May.

I think you need to work on playing them all at the same time.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Mar 2000 Location: P-town, OR | | | Stew, I just found this thread. Great interview! It seems very consistant with your upbeat presence on this site and what I've heard from Jake. I especially liked your response here:
So what has been the high point?
I hope I haven't hit that yet. I strive to challenge myself with each new gig. At the same time, I try to push myself to do and try new things with my regular gigs. I would like to think that the best is yet to come!

from the lows,
Stew | Cool interview Stew. I dig the new pics too, that low angle shot really makes the bass look HUGE, but it looks like you've gone all cleancut and proper on us, I kinda like the 'I've been on the road for 3 months" look.
