anyone do bass lessons?

Posted By : WOLFPACK | Comments : 16

for a friend

My friends daughter is after bass lessons in Farnworth every Saturday morning if anyone is available? She had been paying £10 per hour minimum 2 hours a week so if anyone can do this then please let me know and I will put you in touch, apparently she is a real quick learner.

Cheers
Nige

Learning bass - take it she must have been naughty!!! :0)

Why did the chicken cross the road?
To show the bass player it could be done.

How many bass players does it take to change a light bulb?
One, but the guitar player has to show him how to do it. :0)

How many Pop bass players does it take to change a light bulb?
None. The keyboard player does it with his left hand. :0)

I'm not knocking bass players Al, far from it..... every band needs a PA and a van driver!!!! ;0)

A father, who struggled to be a musician but had to become an accountant in the end, gives in to his teenage son's wish to learn how to play an instrument. The boy tells his dad he'd really like to become a bass player. So the father buys him an instrument and arranges for some lessons on the following Tuesday.

After the lesson the dad asks how it went. "Great" says the lad. I learned all the notes on the E string.

The next week another lesson. Again the father asks how it went. "Terrific. I learned all the notes on the A string"

The next week it's time for the lesson but the kid's hanging around the house. "Don't you have a bass lesson?" inquires the father.

"No" replies the boy. " I packed it in. I've got a gig tonight".

Actually Lee was giving her lessons until recently but he now resides in Stoke so he can't make it

@Jez - there's a reason we call it the 'dusty end' of the fretboard! ;)
