#-2 Conclusions
I got 2 conclusions today:
1) I can't play a 5-string bass. Keep hitting wrong strings.
2) I can't sightread more than 3#/b on electric bass.
Why?
Played a Big Band gig on Henry's bass today. The bass had nothing wrong with it, but I was so used to the 4-string at home I kept hitting the wrong strings. Plus the stupid tunes were in keys like Ab or Db, so not only did I play completely wrong strings, but also completely wrong notes. Not to mention the fact that I'm rusty regarding Big Band stuff. So annoying.
