I have no idea if I attached the picture right but here I am rockin' out. :)
 
Awesome man, I've always wanted to play the bass but could never get the chords memorized even with lessons from my cousin so I picked up the drums, haha. How long have ya been playing?
 
About 12 years.......started out playing piano, then keyboards, then bass.....love to play all three but bass is my favorite because my older brother plays drums :)
The only thing I like to play on guitar now is jazz....some rock but chord substitutions are just so much funner.
 
Wow, you've played both instruments I wish I could play too. Piano has always been something that's intrigued me, love the fast classical stuff, some of it's just mind blowing, lol.

I wish I could play jazz and slower stuff but I'm more of a punk guy, lol.
Feels like some of it is to slow, but I love James Jamerson, lol best funk bass player imo. :P
 
Playing stuff like Nirvana(which is simple but fun as hell) and punk(which is hard to play in a way because its so fast, bass drum/high hat, snare.......

Modern jazz or 70's prog drummers like Bill bufford from yes/king crimson are good ones to listen to. Also Art Blakely(sp?) was a jazz drumming genius.
 
Watching some video of some bossa beats now, looks playable if I'm to get off the computer for a bit and keep at it.

Thanks man, always open for music suggestions. :)
 
Wait, a race number on your shirt and you're drinking beer. Beer triathlon? :D
