I wish I would've realized that bass was a lot more fun than guitar. Maybe then I would have actually pursued that jazz studies degree rather than give up before I even applied.

I'd be down, I'm up in Denton and would make the drive depending on where it was. I don't have anything to bring so anyone can drool over, but I'd be down for whatever hanging was available.

I have several friends that all play all the right instruments fairly well that I jam with all the time and we're talking about starting a cover band. I'm totally down for this since I've been looking to join one for awhile now. I understand how to form a set list and I think we'll do that...
