Didn't play bass for a coupla days!! Been busy with spring cleaning & this an' that.
Got together with some friends this weekend & had some fun, did 400 situps yesterday & weightlifted 4 tons!!!!
Now I'm playin' bass again & it feels SO goood I just had to tell y'all!
Hope none of you are going 2 whole days without playin' bass!
Even if I'm busy with other stuff I can always find time to plug in and play.
It's very unusual for me to not play for 2 whole days but...
Separation makes the heart grow fonder. :D
I've been bad. Our band last played NYE and we rehearsed 2 weeks ago to learn some new songs. I had not picked up the bass in over a month! :-\ Last night I put on the local oldies station and played along for 2 hours though.
I had carpal tunnel surgery on my right hand on 3/5. Wasn't able to play until about a week ago, but it's coming back to me... :) Hate it when I can't play. Gotta do my left hand next. :-\
At least the long-scales will start getting more action now!

Thanks Terr. I meant to say I had it on 2/5 -so far so good, though.

Wow!!!! You sure do!!!! Coooool
I just have one right now...a 5 octave KORG Triton.
Ah~ So you're over the worst of it I guess.
Yeah, Joe has "couple" of keyboards to play. I think he's secretly starting a music museum in his house!
Every day before I leave for work I pick up my bass, even if it's just for a few min. It's like kissing the wife good morning.
I think it feels good anytime to be playing. I try to get in at least one hour a day.
I pulled out the 8-string for a few minutes last night. I like to visit all my basses at least once in a while.
I think I'm more myseld with a bass strapped on.
I rarely play on my own. It's nice if you're a guitarist, but I just don't like playing bass on my own. I also have this tiny twp room appartment, so I can't make that much noice.
But I always have some basses around here and I pick 'm up almost every day. just doing something while talking or watching the telly or something.
