wanted bass player.jpg

 

According to members of a couple of bands I know who've auditioned bassists, not as far from the truth as it should be .....

Back in the 90s I auditioned for a band in Swindon... it quickly became apparent that their original material was utterly dire, so I slapped my way through one of the songs in an attempt to deliberately fail the audition :lol: it seemed to work

Nicely done @Rich, must admit I hadn't considered slap as a get out of jail free strategy :)

Full disclosure: Slap bass played well doesn't offend me at all, and I wish I could play it better...

Agreed. I was "chased" out of Guitar Guitar just last week by a young would-be slap-bass player who was set up to demo a bass literally less than 3 metres from where I was quietly noodling. He was loud and sounded awful. Bad marks to both him and to the staff for not separating us. The Epsom branch is huge so there was no need. Rant over,back to the topic 😂
