Are things slowing down on TB?

I don’t think it’s slowing down.
Due to the ebbs and flows of my live playing, that determines my TB visibility.
When I don’t get out much, (which is getting more and more), my bass fix is sated by being here. It’s the closest thing to social site that I belong to. I do Jamkazam, Jamulus or Sonobus online jams too.
 
well i mean with guys like davie and charles mostly being pro level self taught

(Im not talking about Davie or Charles specifically) Being a YouTube Bass Phenom doesnt make anyone Pro Level. There are immense lessons to be learned just being onstage playing within a band framework and in all contexts (covers, originals, multi genres) that a player doesnt get if all he/she has ever done is play in a bedroom making videos.
