#mastobada #basstodon run
New Model Army, Running in the rain, Small Town England.

Let's go running in the rain
I've been there and back again
I know how to fix a heart
Love's the cure right from the start

@paul_ipv6 if you don't have one I cannot recommend highly enough that you make one. Heck, even if you do have one.

Washtub bass is a purely physical intuitive instrument, full of musicality without the planning and logic brain of an upright. A somatic meditation in melodic form.

Finally, I get to take a little break from the madness and spend a few hours playing some old-time music on the bucket-bass with a bunch of lovely queerios.

Fucking love my town.

Ain't no sunshine

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she's goes away

That's a bummer. I got a Vox Bass AmPlug3 for xmas and it doesn't work, and stores are not open to return it 🤔

Seems this festive season I need to fire up my Fender amp and make some noise 😅

Franchement j'ai eu peur d'être cancel, j'ai cru que j'arriverai à mieux jouer la partie basse de The Number Of The Beast de Iron Maiden avec un mediator qu'avec les doigts #basstodon

Me demande pas, à part Give It Away je fais un blocage pour jouer les Red Hot Chili Peppers à la basse. J'y arrive pas, je trouve ça trop dur. Ça me paraît impossible.
Alors que Rage Against The Machine, easy peasy. Même des chansons bien speed de Rancid ou Iron Maiden, avec du boulot ça va. Même des rythmiques un peu chelou de Tool ça va. Mais Flea, je sais pas, ça passe pas.

Another amazing old-time session yesterday at a neighbor's house. I think we had 30 people over the course of a few hours, probably twenty crowded into the living room at one point.

Do other places have an old-time scene with lots of young mostly LGBTQIA people, or is it just Minneapolis? I expect it's the former.

I (washtub player) expressed worry over what if a "real bass" shows up and folks said "well tell 'em we already have a bass player" 🫠

Love this crew. Like, fer real.

When I post bass stuff, which is not that often anymore, I use #Basstodon.

A child in the back seat of a car has a coniption fit, screaming I wanna play bass!

Been playing the four string more recently. There are some songs that just need the extra space between the strings (especially since I'm finally learning slap), and this thing resonates like nobody's business.

A little boy whispers in a little girl's ear.
She asked me to tell her the 3 words every girl wants to hear. So I whispered I play bass in her ear.
