Look hard. Most music programs do not allow for electric bass. I went to music school and had to learn to play upright. I hated it. In the end I majored in recording which is where my interest moved to anyway. If all you wanna do is get really good at bass the schools avid suggested are great. They are not real colleges I beleive, though. You get a certificate of completion rather than a degree, I could be wrong though. Im glad I had my degree with jobs in my major dried up and I had to look other areas for employment.

USC has a jammin' bass teacher if I recall correctly. It's a tough program to get into though.

U$C sucks. And it smells bad. And you can't afford it. Full of cheaters and corruption. Real wrath of god, old testament crap will surely befall them soon, and you won't want to be around for that.

University of Spoiled Children. University of Second Choice.

You can't even spell $UCks without U$C.

(It is, however, acceptable to date their women.)
