Ive been playing bass for 9 years now too and saxophone for 8. The drum and bass go well together for obvious reasons so I alternate between the two of them all the time when Im writing a song. Havent picked up my sax in a while though. Im sure a few years down the road Ill wish I had stuck with it, we'll see what happens.
Oh yeah, and resume pictures of yourselves, didnt really mean to hijack the thread, perhaps the music should be a whole other thread. I think I did that a while back too...
I'm game to play. Lets not wait as long to do this as we have to go riding. My set sounds like crap right now though. I have to remember to get my drum key while I'm here at home.
