================================================ Subject: Re: Finding Bass players.... Hard for "New" bands. From: "King_Dovregubben" To: Date: Mon 10 Sep 2001 23:12:19 -0700 ================================================ I think one of the major problems is that 90% of the bassists would have more actual experience than the rest of the band and probably would have a major effect on the direction of the band. By having a "temp" bassist, they keep control of the direction because the more experienced new guy isn't really part of the band. > -----Original Message----- > From: Creed Discussion List > [mailto:CREED-DISCUSS@WINDUPLIST.COM] On Behalf Of creed -7m3 - live > Sent: Monday, September 10, 2001 7:16 PM > To: CREED-DISCUSS@WINDUPLIST.COM > Subject: Finding Bass players....
