TShakazBlackRoots Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 I cannot put it in words how much I've missed you all!! Today is the first time since I arrived that I've been anywhere near the net. I had such a long journey (going through Dubai...never AGAIN!!). Thank God my bass was allowed on the flights (stewards and 'stewardesses' love musicians...the check in staff is a different story, wanting you to check in your axe!! ) Anyway. I've been in the studio a lot writing and producing....AND REPRESENTING by laying down some immense basslines. I'm doing my best to record and send you some MEAN basslines by some African bassists. They are simply superb these basslines of the Afro beat. It's damn hot! Many areas are experiencing drought. It's trying to rain but it ain't enough yet. I'm gonna try my best to post as often as I can, let you know what's happening. My Bass player magazine has been mailed to me today, can't wait. Stay safe, I love you all....till the next time.

dhurstlmt Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 It is so sad and lonely here without your posts and threads. I am glad, though, that you are doing something you love. Very cool. Have fun and visit us as often as you can. Keep the updates comin'. Let your speech be better than silence, or be silent. For those who believe, no explanation is necessary.

Connie Z Posted August 14, 2004 Share Posted August 14, 2004 Hi TSBR!!! Welcome back! It always amazes me, how tiny this planet became, once the Internet was introduced. You were in England, now you are in Africa. And we can still all chat as though we were right next door! Very cool.

TShakazBlackRoots Posted August 16, 2004 Author Share Posted August 16, 2004 Yes my good people, great to hear from you. I'm in Uganda for those who didn't know. I'm rushing off to the Musicians Club where local musicians meet every Monday for a Jam session. I'll post and let you know more about my trip back plus some GOOD NEWS about an upcoming project. You must tell us about the types of gear you have available over there and all the great players.. P57 Bass, you must be joking about the gear . Nothing to write about, absolutely!! As for bass players, well, I'll give you a feedback soon. I miss you all. Jah blessings everytime. Btw, it rained cats and dogs yesterday. It' so hot now!!
