I lost everything I had in a house fire including 2 dogs. Anything anyone did was greatly appreciated so sure do the benefit. Its the human thing to do.
Thats good the DJs are getting competition from bands. I will do the full time job and play for fun however many times a month and play for the enjoyment of it. The same reason I got into playing bass when I was younger,, it was fun.
It does not hurt the pot at all. If so my parents and family would have been sick because I boiled them all the time when I was young and could not afford new strings. Its a good question because you do what you gotta do at times.
Anyone who can make a living playing bass like Nikki Sixx has is doing something musically better then I have lol.. I like to read about any musician who is successful. Especially to that level..
Thats a good idea of what you are looking for. CL ads can be sketchy at times. Many of the people there ask if I know this and that musician which gets old real fast.
I am a bass player. My kid was in the High School Marching Band they could not get this to work very well. When he played with the Ravens Marching Band they had their own bass player and drums and it worked always. If you contact them someone down there will let you know how they get the best sound.
