I am about to rejoin my old school rock band and start gigging again, but this time for money at functions and weddings playing bass.

I fell at the first hurdle playing Jazz Bass in my late teens and early 20's but thanks to a few great teachers and the Internet, I'm now playing regularly, as Art Blakey said, "Jazz blows the dust off everyday life"
