The quarantine got the best of me last weekend -- I couldn't seem to view any more photos on Instagram without having an actual account, so I caved and did exactly that.

I've been off social media for more than 10 years... but viewing cool images from folks I'm interested and not having to post, chime in or read about people's breakfast or politics seems okay to me. I'm just a lurker, not a poster.

So for those who browse on Instagram, who are you following, bass-related or not? Daniel Tobias' posts are bassporn at a very dirty, carnal level. Jake Serek is always showing something original he's crafted. Will Lee has a fun, lighthearted account. Lots of other good posts out there... Kurt Russell, Benmont Tench, Jim Gaffigan, Dolly Parton, Jimmy Page, Pink Floyd, Ed Norton... the list goes on and on.

Whose accounts do you enjoy checking out? Thanks.

You'll definitely have to read about people's breakfasts on IG from time to time. Food pics are very popular, even from people that aren't known for food.
 
I didn't follow anyone in particular, but they did, and maybe still do, have this feature where you could follow hashtags.
I used to follow F150 to check out all the cool Ford pickups new and old.
I'd have to wade through the dummies who added that tag to a post that had nothing to do with Ford pickups, I guess just to get traffic to their post. That became more and more prevalent, so I stopped doing it and stopped using Instagram around the same time.
We have some friends on an assignment in another country for volunteer work that asked me to check out their Instagram account to see how they are doing. I politely decline reminding them I didn't keep up with their daily activities when they lived an hour north of us, so it doesn't make sense for me to start now.

Rocco Palladino (Pino's son). He just featured on a new album on Blue Note from fellow British musicians Tom Misch and Yussef Dayes. He's putting up some good clips and photos from the sessions. Other than that, it's all film photography stuff.
