Do you dance when you play bass?

[martinc]

Guilty as charged. Sentenced to 100 hrs community service subbing for bass player in the band (see video). Make sure you get the wrist action down.

IanGroot: Wow. Even the triangle player is into it! Must be something to this after all.

Ever seen night at the Roxbury??

Lol

No.

I'm SURE our 50 and up crowd would be impressed. It's funny, every band pic I've seen on this, the bassist has more room than our quartet, so WTH!

 

[caledoneus83]

Yes. I dance while I play. It's also the only time people will see me dancing.

I can't help but bounce to the beat or at least sway to it, when I'm playing! I'm a white guy so there's no Earth, Wind and Fire or Funkadelic moves here. I'm one of the lead singers in the band so I do walk away from the mike when I'm not singing. TEST: If people take multiple photos of your band and they almost all look the same (no one moves) then you're boring! Just my opinion! Have Fun out there! BC

With our group-2 guitars,bass,drums-we all sing so if you took shots of us all at our mics they WOULD look the same except for hand positions .

Good point. I probably do that in the van-more room than I have on"stage".

I'm hip! Last time I danced was in '80

 

[edervjo]

I wouldn't call it "dancing" per se, but I did have an aerobics instructor once comment on how much I move onstage....

 

[urfullofbass]

I dance all the time. Moving and grooving baby, no sense on standing there when bass and drums are basically the dominant and prominent groove of the music

 

[Iko Challenge]

I have to admit that I occasionally felt lonely to be the one dancing while playing but I will do it again anyway!

 

[Dave Neal]

Real men don't dance or eat broccoli.

I like broccoli, though. Lol
