james_guitar Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Hi Bill, I'm often casually checking the marketplace and double bass forums whilst on the train/tube. Like you I haven't posted for a while though; been too busy gigging and teaching. Have you got any more bass gigs coming up with Mark Ronson? I've got a guitar audition coming up myself this week with a big label artist, so am putting the hours in. Would be good to have a jam some time when I'm next in Somerset; I'll show you mine if you show me yours (as in your electric bass licks in exchange for some double bass/guitar chops - don't get too excited!) - Peace and love, James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 Thanks for the compliments and 'welcoming' guys, I'll try to post here as much as I can when I have some time! @james - that's great man, hope the audition goes well! The Mark Ronson thing was kind of a one-off session, but was pretty cool! And is going to look nice on the CV but recently have been doing some recording with Alex Hutchings on his original stuff and some backing tracks for Roland, so enjoying that at the moment! We should definitely hook up when you're back around this end and have a coffee/catchup and a jam for sure Cheers Bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share Posted September 29, 2012 Hi guys. I've recently uploaded a video of me jamming/improvising on a 7 string bass that i may soon acquire! (borrowing it for a few weeks from a guy who is looking to sell it!) so for anyone who might be interested, please check it out and let me know what you think! :-) i'm currently attempting composing some music on this thing.. (which i never really do!) so will be posting a clip of a finished composition when i get round to structuring it etc!
