OT: Bass Player magazine

[TSanders]

Anyone else think the new design changes arent very good? For some reason I just cant get into the new layout. I was so comfortable knowing where everything used to be, and now its all mixed up. Am I alone??

 

[brewer]

No you are not alone. To be very honest, I've never been a huge fan of the mag b/c they spend so little time on the music that I'm into. Not that I look down on rock music whatsoever, I don't. But it seems like a lot of attention is directed toward rock and so little toward anything else. I love rock, i just don't get a chance to play it much.

Hey ebmuscmanlvr83, did you do a session yesterday in atlanta w/ jeremy metcalf?

 

[TSanders]

Nope, wasnt me. Wht do you ask??

 

[brewer]

A guy in my band did a session yesterday w/ a guy that knew me from this forum. You're from Ga and he said this guy was a believer. I just tried to put two and two together. I guess I come up w/ 5

 

[TSanders]

Nope, it makes sense. I wonder who it was. Who else from this forum is from GA??

I dunno. I had a guy ask me once how long it took to get from columbus to here. That was probably you. I didn't feel like looking through my old threads. Hey, you still wanna ditch your bongo?

 

[TSanders]

It was me that asked you about the distance to Columbus.

And my Bongo actually sold. Ive already worked a deal for a StingRay 4.

StingRay 5 w/ piezo?? That may work well with country music.

I've been reading this forum most days for the past year... see something out of the corner of your eye that many times, you remember it. Sad really...

talk about a gear whore

FWIW I don't like the new layout either.

Brewer - what's your bag?

 

[Joshua]

I dig the new layout, but I'm pretty low maintenance. I've always dug the mag in gen'l, and appreciate their attempts to "remake" it.

And they've got a great variety of artists in it, which don't hoit!

bag?

 

[Chet the Jet]

bag?

music that you like to play or listen to.

 

[brewer]

Well, I play country 4 nights a week. I'm not a huge fan of it, but I do respect it greatly. I love jazz/fusion stuff. Bromberg, Wooten, Pattatuci, N. East. I love funk too. Rocco P., that sort of thing. It just seems like when I but a BP mag, its full rock guys. I like the music, but thats not my area of interest in playing b/c it doesn't apply to my everyday playing.
