Love that form-factor:

And I know what you mean - the last 6 weeks seem the hardest. So close, yet so far. Hang in there.

slight derail, yet still Sadowsky related...

I'll just drop a tidbit here now since some of you are in a different time zone. I'll divulge more later.

But, my idiot coworker dropped my name over the weekend to someone who is specifically looking for a female bass player.

yada, yada, yada....I'm entertaining the idea and setting up a meet.

So. My Sadowsky may get some gigging time this year...

Later people.......trying to cook dinner and I think I burned it. (I really hate cooking)

Nice bluesy. That sounds like fun.

Also cooking is over rated...what no frozen burritos at your place?

Buesy: of course, you should totally do it.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained: hit it!

In the little texting that has transpired today. The drummer thinks I am perfect. The band is a 7-piece called Network 7. But so far, that's all I know. I'm not opposed to gigging but I have always looked at my playing as a hobby and I enjoy that.

Taking to a new level is foreign - 100% foreign. Funny, I am slightly excited about it. Not afraid. Feels odd. Hoping to get the chance to at least audition.

Edit: now for the problem if this comes to life.....I don't have gear that is portable.

Oh I will. I'm all over it. They have a studio to practice in from what I understand. Is about 15-20 miles away but that's not too bad.

It's no secret that I hate cooking. I didn't burn dinner btw. Turned out okay. I'm surprised.

I could go for a burger!

Bluesy, you're gonna love it, and it can stay at hobby status, just a way more fun level of it. That's the way I look at my music stuff. It's not what I do to pay the bills, it's the release from what I do to pay the bills!

^^^^^^^Yup.

It's actually really liberating to not do it for a living, cause I get the freedom to do more of what I want

That's why I don't feel nervous! I feel ready for whatever happens.

I'm just wondering what should I ask them? What should I find out?

what are the specific plans for gigs?, because everyone says they wants 'em, but not everyone is as psyched about doing what you gotta do to get the gigs (demos, marketing, image, music quality is usually the last thing you need to worry about).

Good point. This 7pc project is new and from what I understand, is still coming together. Not 1 practice yet. The 3 pc band seems more suited so I am going to inquire about it. Less shows, they are local, and the guitarist is my ex-instructor! Actually, he was my first bass instructor.


Oh darn. Sorry to derail the Sadowsky club! Carry on.....

Btw: I am really starting to enjoy the Sadowsky Steels on my pj5. I was wondering if anyone tried the la Bella steel flats or the Ernie ball cobalts on yer Sads?
