Funny how things go sometimes. I'm getting back into playing bass after a fairly long hiatus and for a band to . I've played a lot of different styles over the years, but this time around, I really wanted to try playing metal. Specifically downtuned slow riffy doom metal. I traded in my Fender Jazz for a 5 string Stingray so I could tune to C Standard without losing too much string tension, and tried out for one band that just didn't work out. In the meantime I've been posting ads and practicing whenever I have a spare minute. Not too many hits on the metal front at all, at least not ones that could work logistically. But last night I got a hit from another site from a keyboardist/singer who is for an upright player for a jazz/soul project. Totally not what I was for, but it could be an opportunity to gig out with some serious players and I think I'm going to at least need to give that a shot. Of course, I haven't played my electric upright in a couple of years and I'm rusty as hell on it, but I'm forward to dusting it off!
