alone time

[the evil]

i have recently picked up my basses again to start a VERY part time project with some friends. now I am a bit rusty but it wont take a long time to get it back, problem is just picking it up. I get bored when playing alone and always have. i find playing drums and guitar can be a pretty attention grabbing activity solo (i have both) but i find my mind wandering when i have to bass alone; can anyone give me some stuff that will be fun to play alone to get back into practice. possibly if anyone knows some sites with some lessons that they have used that are good solo ventures. At times its like i sit playing and just wait for everyone to jump out of the closet and chime in. i do have some lesson sites but they get very repetitive after a bit. i find myself eventually slapping randomly. I wouldn't mind some solo lessons or maybe some tapping stuff.

also when i say alone i mean with no music to play along with, just me and the bass.

thanks

wow been like 3 or 4 days and no suggestions???? so there is nothing to play solo alone that will peak me??????????????????


i just want something that maybe as i play it i will know what i am playing while i am doing it (by sounds, not just by knowing what i am playing).

i was really looking for something without music on the side. i really want something without the aid of other instruments. i used to practice with the song in the background but i am tired of that and really want something that is not supportive and more leadish, so if someone heard it they coul go "oh is that ......."

No idea if this helps, but I think its not alone but its more or less lead...and sounds cool. Not a lesson, just a tab, and a site to continue a search for inspiration.
