Hi Tom, since we both live in the Chicago area, what was the name of your band?

I played in Rock bands, wedding bands and a soul band. The last band was the soul band, playing the soul music of the late 1960s changed how I played bass for ever!;)
Now days I play mainly in Church on the worship team. My playing supports the song, I work with the drummer to setup a good base rhythm for each song. There are many songs where the bass starts out the song and establishes the pattern for the song. John
Bass as a supporting insterment and a as lead at the same time.
