G&L Club Part 7

There is no better way to improve your playing skills than climbing on a stage with other musicians and playing for other people.
Agreed! And that is certainly the plan... someday :)

But just to illustrate, I was not able to play for more than hour at a stretch for the entire month of May--and my baseline isn't that great, either. I don't want to subject others to that.

The LB-100 I borrowed last summer still had that smell despite being several years old. Because it was a loaner, I kept it in the case. Loved it every time I opened it.

My new one, however, went straight onto the wall, and the case straight to the basement. So I don't get the blast I would get if taking it out of the case. I should break out the case just for fun.
Phew... I was getting worried that I was the only one who could smell them.

Dude, no worries! Just show up and have some fun, there's not going to be any difference between being there and being here on TB ... except, apparently, for you two freaks (you and @armyadarkness ) who will, seemingly, be walking around smelling people's cases....

You'll understand if I can't add a like to that post :D
That's okay bro, you and I will start a Plasmatics Trib, two bass players (I'll play my 12er), and my girlfriend in the perfume biz will figure out a way to bottle the G&L smell. We'll even expand into the rearview mirror air freshers and make millions!

Who here wouldn't buy their favorite model, with their color and neck options and that fresh out the box G&L scent!

It's a funny coincidence: just before you started posting about the Plasmatics here, there was a thread about them on leftybassist due to the appearance in one of their videos of a bass similar to a rare lefty that had popped up:

When Wendy O. died, I lived in a boarding house just down the road in Manchester CT. I was a punk, but only following local, active bands at that point, so didn't know her or her music. But I remember how much it affected everyone in the scene. I guess she retired to bumf*** CT because she hated people, but there sure was a lot of love for her.

My pipe dream since starting to play bass again is to start an all-male, all-drag Luscious Jackson cover band.
