    Has anyone ever just give you an instrument

    Never. Not even my parents. I had to save money and pay for all my gear myself.

    Who influenced you to play bass?

    When I first heard Uriah Heep with Gary Thain (I was 12 and had just started to learn guitar), it was clear to me that one day I had to be a bassist.

    How long had you played, and how old were you when your bought your first "expensive" bass?

    Started at 15 and bought my first "expensive" bass (my '74 Fender Jazz) at 17.

    What do you eat the day of a big gig?

    Nearly nothing. Maybe a few bites of scrambled eggs for lunch. I'm not nervous before going on stage, but everything I eat feels like a big stone in my stomach. I can only eat when the gig is done.

    Nightmare scenario

    And I just wanted to ask how it's possible to forget all gear when going to play a gig ;)

    At what age have you started playing bass?

    Wanted to since I was 13, then got the opportunity and grabbed it with both hands in 1978 when I was not quite 16.

    Going for walks, seeing some cool cars.

    Saw this nice American car a few years ago. I don't even know what it is, but I think it's beautiful.

    New RHCP album: Unlimited Love

    Actually, imo they sound like they are their own tribute band - not much originality there, but that doesn't necessarily have to be bad. I loved Stadium Arcadium, and at least part of this new album sounds like an extension of it to my ears. And: Flea is good (as always). And: I love...

    Basses You Wanted To Hate, But Couldn’t

    Ovation Magnum. I hated it because it was so ugly, but when I got the chance to play one I was surprised because it sounded and played fantastic. It was just a bit heavy. And way too expensive, otherwise I would have bought that ugly wonderful thing.
