Played a cover gig.
After the 2nd set, I was sitting at a table eating a protein muffin, a girl approaches me and says, "You guys are really awesome, what's the name of your band?" I tell her, and then she says, "I'm curious though? I notice your band doesn't have a bass player, how come?" |

I wasn't, so I wasn't quite sure how to respond after that. I think I said, "OK, I won't hide anymore." I think she got embarrassed - she walked away. |

|  | Yeah, I've got the moves like Jagger. | | Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: G.R. MI | | | That's an awesome compliment! If people notice I'm there, it usually means I've done something to be noticed. (Usually not a good thing) I love it when I can sort of melt into the drum kit! |

You need a bigger amp bro - if she can't feel the bass in her chest cavity from outside the club door, you need more power. |
