I'm a hobbyist . I got my first Bass when I was 20 , Hondo 2 still got it . Right around this time I took up Judo , which subsequently took over my life for the next 25 years … work , marriage , divorce , obsession with Judo and all that comes with meant it my Bass would be picked up rarely if ever in that time span .... 2006- I dug the Bass out , started playing it , jammed a couple of times with a former Pro Drummer , who , being the great guy that he is , didn't laugh at all at my playing Acquired new gear Then 2 years ago me , the Drummer ( who is now the Singer ) and 2 relative newbies ( Guitar & Drums ) got together to Jam covers for fun . Last November we recorded a 5 track demo/EP of original songs at a local studio and we are now knocking together 3 more to record .
I can't read music , know very little theory , though I'm trying to learn . I've no idea what standard I am , I just enjoy my Hobby
