I will now officially say that I am a Bass Player from north Dallas who has a WIDE variety of musical influences that have molded how and what I play.
The reason I say "Officially/Bass Player" is I always played guitar until I tried playing bass for a friends band about a decade ago and fell in love with it.
I also can play [mainly acoustic] guitar, except I have in the recent couple years became a better bass player than I am guitar player, although I still love playing guitar and have compiled quite a few written songs over the years.
Decided to put a profile up to see if I might be a fit for something going on out there. I want the main focus to be FUN, but also part of "fun" for me is playing and sounding bad-ass! I would ideally want to practice and/or gig 2 - 3 time a month as I am a busy man that has other obligations and interests as well, but also know there will be self-practice to be as prepared as possible.
