Hello from Nashville
In accordance with what seems to be the protocol here, I'm Dave Martin. I've been playing bass for perilously close to 40 years, and live in Nashville, Tennessee, where I do sessions, play live and run Java Jive, a studio just outside of the city.

Hello Dave and welcome to this forum. Nashville is a great place. I've not been lately, but over the last 15 or so years, have visited probably 15-20 times. Sounds like you're enjoying it. I'm in Gastonia, North Carolina. Don't tell Richard Prowse (one of our fellow forum members) that I asked you this, but you've surely had grits, right? If grits peak your interest at all, go over to the Bull Pit thread. Go back several posts and you'll find all kinds of grits speak with other stuff mixed in as well. We've had fun with it for several weeks. Side note - my great grandfather's name was Dave Martin! There is still a Martin family reunion each year in late summer near the "home place" about 40 minutes north of Gastonia. We could be related! Many of my relatives on that side, my dad's side, of the family were bass players, so it just came along the family tree to me.

I hope it doesn't lower your opinion of me, Oren, but I'm not a grits fan. Perhaps that's because as a child, the grits I was served seemed more like a building material than a food item. Or maybe it's simply that if I'm going to have a grain at breakfast, I would rather it be wheat - ideally, made into piping hot home-made pancakes.

Nah Dave, doesn't lower my opinion - but doesn't raise it any either. Just picking on you my Tennessee pal. I know that I mentioned about my Great Grandfather being Dave Martin etc. Now, on my mother's side, those roots go back to a place outside Knoxville called "Strange Hollow." Not strange as in different, but as in the proper name Strange. That's her maiden name. You've mentioned pancakes - what better combo than pancakes and grits! I'll bet that you might change your mind if you had some that my wife made. Well, maybe not. lol as my friend Richard stated. You think that maybe he's referencing Puff Daddy?

Well, Oren - I'm probably not quite old enough to be your great grandfather (even by Tennessee standards ) but everybody - even North Carolinians - knows that the best thing for pancakes is a few strips of good bacon. There's something about bacon with a little maple syrup that makes me smile...

You are exactly right, my friend Anselm. Let's move this line over to the Bull Pit, or as I like to reference it, the Pit Bull. So, see ya there.
