I guess I look at the fretboard most of the time, at least when practicing fretless. On gigs I prefer looking at the audience, there might be some hot chicks there and who wants to miss those?

Thats one ugly cat if I do say so myself.

I usually stare at my ceiling as I'm lying down whilst I practice. Otherwise I'm looking at a drummer or an audience.

If I'm at home I look at my bass a lot but when I'm playing out I tend to look at the people in the back at the bar.

Yup, and yup.

Once in a while, I might look at the other guys in the band, or at the setlist. But I keep that to a minimum.
