Very uplifting thread here! It's started my adrenalin flowing for playing out this weekend.

That is what it's all about. Man, you're even holding your mouth right in the middle pic. Great bass face, congrats!

It's always good to hear when someone makes such a breakthrough.

especially when it's another sunbursted, tort-guarded, Audere stoked Fender-funker

Peace,

MAJOR CONGRATS AND KUDOS MY FRIEND!

that is awsome and fantastic pics to boot!

that took some real guts - especially to go to a Jam session where you did not know what was going to be played! I am glad it worked out and was a positive experience for you!

Now you know you can do it and you will be able to do it again and again!

Peace!

Doug

Well done dude!

Awesome.

You're better than me.

I'd played in bands before and just moved to the city 20 years ago and was eager to play again so I attended a blues jam.

I got the plug (literally) pulled on me and the host made a snide remark over the mic about "the jazz bassist" (I'd played some wrong notes) and then thanked me for coming and reminded me that he expected players with talent to attend his jams.
