    Adding a low-key drummer.

    You're looking for a drummer who uses brushes, snare and hit/hat, and maybe a floor tom.

    Is your band a mess?

    If me and the drummer don't click, I don't stay. I've been playing drums and bass both since '98. Bass is my love but I actually started out on drums. It obviously aids me in communicating with drummers because I speak their language, and I can actually sit down and show them what it is I...

    Free Bird........ughhh

    It's a jam, plain and simple. Any self respecting Southerner ought to know it. Whether you should play it or not depends on if you can give her the justice she deserves.

    Fender fanned fretboard. Bets accepted...

    I just don't see Fender doing it. It just....I dunno....a fanned fretboard is just not Fender.

    Experience Making Drummers Better

    My situation is unique in that I've played drums longer than I've played bass. Since 98 and 99. Bass is my passion and I've put in infinitely more hours woodshedding on bass over that time, so while I'm serviceable on drums and can sit in and all that, it's not my love nor something I would...

    I think I'm not excited about playing any more.

    I haven't played out in a long long while because of this same feeling. Got tired of playing the same stuff over and over. Not interested in doing a cover band just to make money and play. Got tired of there always being at least 1 guy in the band who just couldn't quite cut it. That was all...

    Promoting without social media?

    Bingo. Some people just prefer doing different things. I workout a lot and so I actually LIKE helping load in and load out. I also started out musically playing drums before I picked up and fell in love with bass. So if anyone empathizes understands etc about the WORST parts of hauling gear...

    I'm Pretty Sure I'm Being BS'd.

    I tried playing devils advocate in my mind based on your OP even though that didn't sound great regardless. But your last sentence here, dude, you have your answers. No one does that to a band member they value. You need to leave and find a new group.

    where you find new music

    We have a local record store that updates new releases each week and gives brief descriptions/reviews. I give the stuff a shot, some is good, some sucks.

    Promoting without social media?

    Yeah, no. Not sure what your issue is, but I've got better things to do than endulge your nonsense any further. Feel free to keep showing your ass all you like guy. Have a good one.

    Promoting without social media?

    No, not at all what I was saying but feel free to make crass assumptions and put words in my mouth. Good stuff guy.

    Promoting without social media?

    I'm the same as you OP. I'm mid 30s. When MySpace and what not where kind of cool (playing fast and loose with that terminology I know) that was one thing. Then along came Facebook and it was cool when it was just us college aged folks in the 2000s. We all know where it's gone from there. I...
