What do you sit on when you practice?

[v1paul]

As the title says, What do you sit on when you practice. I'm asking because I find sitting on my bed gives me back ache. Should I stand instead?

[tplyons]

My butt.

Seriously, I'm either sitting on a wooden stool or an office chair without arms.

[PBass101]

Comfortable office chair, no arms. Arms suck.

In an office chair WITH ARMS.

i sit on the arms of chairs

[lukelogandennis]

At home I used a stool type thing. IN the dorms I just use a armless chair. I tried playing of the bed, but it was so uncomfortable.

[Derk_Falsco]

Rocking chair (pun not intended... well, sort of).

Preferably without arms, my bass has enough dings in it.

I bought this stool from Musician's Friend that has a back to it. I originally bought it because it can adjust from being a chair (which I use in theatre pits) to a stool that I can sit on when playing my upright.

When I'm doing some serious woodshedding,trying to learn a song,especially in a short amount of time,I ALWAYS stand when I'm learning my parts.
I've practiced a song before,sitting down that had a couple of difficult passages.When it came time to play it on stage,I couldn't!!Why??I learned the song w/the bass in a completely different position.So,if I'm practicing serious,I stand.If I'm just screwin' around,I'll sit on my couch and noodle while I watch TV,playing along to commercials and such,a good way to improve your ear,too,I might add.Drives the old lady NUTS!!!

i always stand, i know people who never play standing and then they must play standing live and fail !!!

I was gonna say " my ass" but some wiesenhiemer beat me to it



I spend at least 3 hours a day practicing, half the time I'm standing, but I do sit down, I have a nice office chair and a tall wooden barstool in my art/music/media studio. I pulled the arms off of it, and it is extremely comfortable to play in.

duuuuude... There's this new device on ebay... check it out! http://cgi.ebay.com/HubertClements-H...d=p3286.c0.m14

Kinda expensive, but well worth it.

P.S., yes this joke is very funny.

[millsbass5]

Some people probably need to sit on this while practicing:

Office chair that I took the arms off of. But I really should be trying to stand up more...
