Feel the pain here. Had a few shockers in my time. The worst ones are the people who don't see the point of the D or G string of a bass or being in tune and try and cure this by being louder than everyone else. Woe betide they have any other strings to play more wrong notes on!
I'm lucky my bassist is a good mate and we can sit in the pocket all night as we will tonight and have a telepathic understanding.
The best bassist I ever played with was a guy in Derby who had talent and technique to burn, we were in a 3 piece and he glued the guitar and drum parts perfectly. He played with a stereo delay which baffled sound engineers. No ego either which was the best part. It's a shame he never made a living from playing.
