US Bass Player Magazine (May 2018). Me! Hahaaaar!
« on: May 12, 2018, 01:21:04 PM »
I know this is kind of a non-Gibson thing (but I only contribute to the Gibson area in this hallowed forum), but I'm blowing my own trumpet as I'm featured in the May 2018 edition of Bass Player in The Real World section.  I very nearly spat out my coffee when I turned the page and saw my name there.

I did the shizz for them over six months ago, so I've kind of rebuilt my gear a bit since submission and I've left the Johnsons, but hey, any exposure is good exposure, huh?  It's nice that Stuart Hill (ex-Dischord band, Shudder To Think) shot me a message earlier saying he was 'very flattered' to see his name up on my Heroes and Inspirations list.

The future I come from no longer exists.

Congratulations! Nice feature. It's really a reminder in these instant internet days, that when we used to get the news out of magazines a lot of things could happen before they were edited, printed and out in the shop.

It is very nice to see someone from the LBO profiled.

Very cool. We all had dreams to be featured in one of those magazines I'm sure. I'm excited for you. GREAT pic by the way.
