Getting a little bitter, I think I figured out one bass riff from Dismemberment Plan’s “The City”

Colin’s been teaching me but I tend to forget it all really quickly. i really want to learn properly though, it’s been an ambition of mine for so many years.
Progress is coming along, although I can only read tabs not notes. I wish I could get the index finger-pick/thumb-slap technique down; its really sounds impressive.
Once I get a little better and more comfortable with the bass I’ll get start taking in-person lessons. For now I’m just learning from Carl Shepard from expertvillage.com at: http://www.expertvillage.com/video-series/406_how-to-play-bass.htm
Worth doing!
DO IT!
personally i very much prefer the sound of the deep vibrations of a bass guitar than the lead singing guitar.
Katrina feels like dancing.
i just think it’s a cool instrument,
and it sounds pretty =]

Ever since I started to listen to rock music and related genres I’ve wanted to learn to play a musical instrument.
The guy I call my best male friend said that we should go together to bass classes, so now all I have to do is buy a bass.
eddievonteese is on her Teacher's Summer Vacation! Yay, now onto other things!
Okay, so my fiance plays guitar and bass really well. Unfortunately there is no bass in the house and I have a million of things that are higher up on the Want to Do list. Between teaching, tattooing, illustrating, millinery, costuming, jewelry and my web-store, not to mention my gorgeous accordians I can barely play, and the dance and spanish lessons, I have to drop this one for a while. Maybe when I retire.
I really want to play a musical instrument and addin to the fact that i am not really good at anything and i don’t even know myself. this would help me alot

redlamp asks,
“I'm having difficulties strumming the bass with my fingers. It seems I have to clip my nails constantly in order to play otherwise my nails will make a twanging sound as I strum (pick?) at the strings. Any suggestions on how to go about this properly?”
