blue Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 [quote name='neepheid' timestamp='1416686446' post='2612682'] What's that supposed to mean? That as a "once a monther" I don't get to have a valid opinion about gigging? Surely playing gigs once a month is still "gigging", no? What a bizarre thing to say. [/quote] It just means you probably have other priorities. However, your opinions on your gigs and your gigging experience is just as valid as the guy that gigs 6 times a month.

blue Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 [quote name='Coilte' timestamp='1416650095' post='2612202'] How did you come to this conclusion ? [/quote] I met a long term TB guy once. he was playing at a bar down the street from where my band was playing in Fort Atkinson and he shared the statistic with me. What do you think it is on Bass Chat, I have read several posts where guys say they haven't gigged in years. Blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drTStingray Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I risked it - and it's usually ok. However there's currently a thread with several indignant posts - concerning Limelight guitars ....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bo0tsy Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 I'm on both BC and TB... yet I don't gig period. I therefore don't really have opinions about gigging but I do have opinions and interest in many other things bass, music and effects related . I really like TB, there's a heck of a lot of information on there, especially as I'm into more niche music and some of the boutique effect pedals that perhaps don't get the same amount of coverage or interest in BC. Agreed some of the threads get very heated. Amusing to read but I try and steer clear of posting in those! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Probably the best way to keep it, if you don't gig and it sounds like you have no intentions on gigging or interest in it. I have a few bass player buddies that record at home , love the whole home studio thing but they make it clear they hate the thought of performing in front of people. I don't get that, but were all different. If you go see other bands I am sure you could share your observations.
