Is the bass fun to play on stage with a band? Most of the time when I listen to music I can't hear the bass.
Also is it boring? I hear some people say it's boring. |

Try it out for yourself to see if you like it.

And, please, tell us how it went. |

Ultimately, bass playing, like anything in life, is was you make of it.
