Subject:RE: OT - Playing as a duo...

While I have played with just keys and drums, as
well as a "full" band, the bass player is the LAST
thing I want to do without.
If I have a choice in a duo I'll always choose a
good bass player oner any other instrument.
And I CAN kick pedals, or play left hand bass.
I'd just rather not.
