Ask them who their favorite bass players are. Please post it here.

I am the mother of two bass players. Two.

wow, thats a lot of work. I havent done that since I worked nights and went to college

I have a work schedule and soon a school schedule.

I don't have a crazy schedule, but it can be busy by times. I need my quiet, solitary recovery time, so too much activity can really drain me. But between work, volunteerism, and side projects, it's generally manageable — but I'm not looking for additional companionship on top of my schedule, so that probably makes a difference as well.

Surely with no disrespect, you will be retiring soon and you can concentrate on your music but relax and get to know people who enjoy it too.

I work M-F 730am - 4pm. My commute is an hour, 1 way. Then I have gym which is 45 to 90 minutes, depending on what day it is & I strive for 5 days per week in the gym. Once home its tend my chickens, take care of my elderly dog, clean & pack eggs, household chores, pack lunch, lay out work clothes, pack my gym bag, get cleaned up & go to bed, usually around 9pm weekdays, to be up at 5 to do all over again.

Here's the thing, I will totally find time to carve out of my schedule to get to know someone as long as he doesn't come off as needing to be the center of attention and makes demands of my time unreasonably.

I used to, now I schedule time for everything...it's all about time manegement.

Keep trying.

I really don't have time to discuss this with you.

Maybe you can find someone who owns her own business, works remotely, is retired, or works with you in your own vocation.

Yes.... I’m on this insane 8:00 am Mon-Fri. It’s unnatural and exhausting.

Feeling free of responsibility for the first time in life, other than just myself, I’m also enjoying a fairly non-demanding schedule. Nature abhors a void, though, and it’s filling. Much more, and I wonder if there’d/ ‘ll be room for anyone else..?

Any entertainment work is bug fuck nuts in scheduling terms. I'm a theatre tech and my VSS-O is a singer. Sometimes we see each other daily and privately, sometimes daily at work, and worst, weeks of not at all. I've had good relationships within the biz, but no lasting ones outside.

Noon till nine - but I do have weekends off. The up side is getting to get business done during the week without taking time off to do it. Made it to the weekend - mini celebration.

I am retired - people like me are free as a bird.
