Richard played it at his place on the weekend; perhaps he can offer further comment as a substantially more experienced and far better player than I.

Shiney, I'm glad the gig went well and that the feedback (about your playing) was so good.
The bass certainly sounded good when I heard it.
I only stayed at the Americana jam for an hour - it got a bit repetitive with singer guitarists doing their thing. They don't let bass players call tunes.
