I'm with you Mario, I'm with you. Been there, done that... Worked with some sensational ones; and then, well then there were the other ones...
Same here. In fact, it reminds me of a joke which you have all probably hear, but in case you haven't I thought it was pretty funny.
How many bass players does it take to change a light bulb?
1. Wait, 5. Now, 1...5...1...5.
It makes me appreciate the great bass players all the more. It is one of my favorite instruments when played well!
Anyway, thanks for all of the ideas. I did figure out what was having me second guess myself. I have played a lot of rock, Latin, Jazz and swing. I have also played older country to just up to the newer country. But I haven't played the latest "country" for myself out live. I guess I just wasn't first hand familiar with it. I understood it, but didn't experience it yet.
When I went to play it, I felt as though I was playing pretty much a rock song. So I kept hesitating thinking I was overplaying. Nope. It's the state of country music...which I understood intellectually but it just felt weird! when that happens I ask for outside perspectives!
Thanks for keeping on the path! You all rock!...or country;)
