Really? With no disrepect intended, does income from music make up the bulk of your living? Or, perhaps, is your schedule full enough that you can afford to walk out of a paying gig?

Bass Rental.

For reasons not germane to this post, I've given up on Talkbass. But there's always a downside, and here's mine.

I need to find a relatively inexpensive bass rental in LA for 10 days in May; I've...

Yeah, I think it would still be a great record. The string charts are great and Etta sings the bejeesus out of the song. But I also think that Etta's "The Right Time" (recorded in Muscle Shoals, and...

Well, the best answer to that is a quote from my friend Tommy Wells - a quote that I've taken to heart. This applies to all sorts of music, by the way - from showtunes to polkas, from country to emo....
