[SuchFriendsAreDangerous]

Interestingly, I spent my first 12 years playing almost exclusively in two-pieces, just my guitar and a drummer, sometimes sprinkling in either another guitar player or just overdubbing some leadwork, but in the past two years I've been jamming with this new band, with a SICK ASS grooving motherfucker on the bass, and honestly, I am completely smitten. Sometimes I just sit there and enjoy his groove and think to myself, "Fucking shit I NEVER even remotely thought of adding this."

That being said, don't let a lack of a bass player slow y'all down, take every musical opportunity you can get, record everything while you can, band chemistry sooooooo fleeting. You're almost more likely to win a national championship in sports as an athlete than have a string of successful bands, so the moral of that story is to play, play, play every chance you get.
