Instead of suggesting CBT or anything vaguely theraputic they stuck me straight on anti anxiety anti depressants. Ah well. C'est la vie innit. It's all stress related with me which doesn't help as I have a super stressful job!

Hello! bottomendian grassed you all up asking about me... Thought I'd quickly check in and say hi, my bassiness is kind of on hold at the min after both my band and lessons went balls up for totally random reasons. I'm not fulltime at work in a really stressful job, and currently battling generalised anxiety disorder and bad panic attacks. Other than that life's peachy I keep meaning to come back and say hi but I've been feeling sh*te recently so haven't been doing much of anything other than work! I will be back soon when I'm feeling more 'me'...

I bet those old Barefaced cabs have been round the block a bit!

I love John Mayer... Slow dancing in a burning room always gives me chills..

Ibanez all the waaaaaaaaaay!

Awww I'm jealous. I'd love to go but can't afford to get up to edinburgh

Is there much point caring about a heavy metal bass tone? In most cases we're drowned out by the 'wall of death'... sorry.. 'noise' produced by 2 guitarists fretw**king all over the place and blasting people's eardrums. lol PS: I'm joking +1 on the heavier gauge strings,getting a 5er and pedals tho. Might want to look at getting a 1x15 somewhere in your setup too to drive the bottom end and compete with the downtuned guitars.

[quote name='jonthebass' post='915052' date='Aug 4 2010, 03:49 PM']Hi Sarah, Nice one on the result there. Can I ask how went about learning theory please? I'm interested but don't know where to start! Cheers, Jon[/quote] I've been taking lessons, and decided to do my exams so got the books and did it in combination with my lessons

The cheeky divorcees?

You wouldn't think I'd only started learning theory 7 months ago

[quote name='Bilbo' post='914978' date='Aug 4 2010, 02:29 PM']You had me beat at Grade one [/quote] I only started doing them because I wanted to learn the theory and further my playing, plus doing the exams is motivation to practice and recognition for your hard work. Apparently you get UCAS points for grade 6-8 too! Well worth it Going to be doing my grade 6 this time next year, or that's the plan anyway!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP!! I got a Distinction, 91%! DOUBLE WOOOOOOOOOOOOOP! Having a chaotic week at work, so this came just in time.... f**k yeaaaaa
