It was all bass all day today. The hours of playing, I realized, strengthened my thumb. Also, when one is predominantly a guitarist, upon playing bass, there has to be a switch in the mind frame; one has to think bass which is what I need to do. I kept playing the bass like a guitar, with all those fast runs, it gives very little meaning to a bass embrace. However, I can't simplify my phrasing for this to happen, I keep treading on complexity, which is more suitable for guitar.
Listening to Jaco Pastorious now...
