Yeah, but you get to actually do what you think you do as well!

Meh, sometimes, I guess, when I'm not playing dives.

Well, yeah, but from what I can tell, you ratio of dives to "real" stages is pretty damn good - at least by my standards.

The Sacred Triangle of TalkBass

The Sacred Triangle of TalkBass

This should be a T-shirt.

I wish someone had given me a hard shake and drilled this into me years ago because I've stayed in bands that had literally none of the triangle. I was like people who stay in bad romantic relationships because they just didn't want to be alone.

So I'll preach it brothers and sisters: if your band doesn't meet at least 2 sides of the triangle, GET OUT. Life's too short.

Right now it's helping me stay. I don't know why, but sometimes I have that "the grass is greener" mentality. I start thinking "what if" and looking around. Luckily, I come back to the sacred triangle and realize that I have all 3 and I should just stay and count my blessings.

"Music - Hang - Money" works.

So does "Weight - Tone - Price".

Hi!


There's a LOT of truth right there.

Thank you for your indulgence,

Weight-volume-price works for cabs. Volume as in how loud, not how much space it occupies.
