So I did get my acoustic bass guitar and realized that it's pretty quiet when using fingers, but it sounds good using a pick. I've never played bass with a pick before and it's kind of a new experience. With fingers, I know what string they're on because after I play a note, my finger ends up resting on the string below it. Well with a picks, it feels like my hand is just floating out their in space.
It just takes some time to get used to. Anyway, with the pick it sounded really good in practice on Tuesday. Two more practices to go before Sunday night when we play.
It's fun. Also, we have some songs with vocals, which I sing lead as well. Which is also fun. We talked on Tuesday about making this a regular thing.
