DirkThrust Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 That's an interesting hobby Welcome to BC. You're probably being a bit optimistic if you expect to be anything other than crap after only playing for a week. If you started playing cos some guitard told you "it's only got 4 strings so it's easy" now you can tell him He's full of sh*t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phaedrus Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Welcome Adam. Bass is great, and this is a great forum. I've been playing for years and I'm still crap. But... Sorry if I seem like a prude or a killjoy here, but am I the only person that finds pissman an inappropriate username? Savoury language in a post is one thing (go for it - I think I may have), but this seems a little wrong to me. Have things been changing as I've been a less frequent visitor over the last few months? Shoot me down if I've got this wrong, but I had to mention it. Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_the_bassist Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Welcome aboard! Glad to see you're taking the right route in life (aka the way of the bassist!) and after a fwe lessons you'll be sorted! As for left hand, your teacher'll be able to give you good pointers for that, but if you start by placing your thumb in the middle of the back of the neck when you play (if that makes sense) and see if that eases the pain. You might also need to adjust your playin position, but your teacher'll sort all that out on the first session Take it easy, and good luck with your urinary quest!

BigBeefChief Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I think Pissman is a genius name! It reminds me of one of my favourite sayings: "Piss off and poo yourself". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
