I'm playing bass guitar for about 4 years now. I don't need/want/have/had any lessons. well, I had about 5 lessons in the past. I've learnt everything by myself. I've played with a pick for about 6 months (such a thing guitar players use). I've lost it and I started to play without one. watching iron maiden video's and cannibal corpse for finger techniques. I can play as fast as steve harris now Smile . Took me about one year to get the 3 finger technique right (3 fingers are needed when you have to triple).

I'm playing in a band too. I've started a band with a friend. We're writing our own songs now Smile . You can compair it with trash metal. But faster than kreator and better riffs tough. Trying to play faster and faster every time. I hope we can record a demo soon.

We had a some gigs a while ago. We've been on stage for about 6 times. Playing covers. Only a few songs though

Iron maiden- the trooper
Overkill- I, Hurricane
Kreator- Extreme agressions
Sepultura- (I don't know this song was called. Can't remember Confused )
Motorhead- ace of spades
Metallica- For Whom the Bell Tolls

We don't play covers anymore, We're making our own material now. It's hard though. I can't write good lyrics because I'm dutch, and we need english lyrics.

I've spend nearly all my money for my bass guitar. I have 2 bass guitars. One old and bad and cheap one. I've played about 2 years on it. And a have a spector ns 2000 pro Q4. I have a SWR amplifier. 4X10 cabinet, a Goliath 3, 700 watts rms. A 350 watts head, from the pro series from swr. and another 200 watts 1x15 cabinet. Took me so much money. I've been working long for it. When I came back from school I went woring. Every saturday. and whole holidays. when everybody was on holiday or at the swimming pool or whatever, I was working for my gear. I was worth it though Smile
