DWBass Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Man, I gotta tell you, some of the best and most gifted musicians are found in the church!! Many won't even do the secular thing and not just because of religious reasons but because a good % of secular musicians just aren't good enough or disciplined enough! www.myspace.com/thefunkfather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil W Posted August 19, 2007 Author Share Posted August 19, 2007 Yes I know. Maybe I should start a gospel bass thread. I've been getting to know a few of the bandleaders and local bassists but you know I guess I need a five string! http://philwbass.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
