jam? I'm a chick, and I think it's hard to find other girls to jam with. I don't think other girls are into stuff like that. It's kind of sad actually.

    Nothing more sexy than a female bass player. This is a guy speaking.

    I was a bass player. not much time now, I used to love to shake the joint!
    People seemed afraid of me when my instrument was bigger than me, and my amp was taller than me! Lol

    I play drums... I'm not in a band, but I play. I don't even have my own set right now... :( I need to get a new one.
    Hey, reckless mind,
    Don't throw away your playful beginnings...

    I like to jam, but I also play the piano, and I don't think that's jamming... I play the guitar too, but I started not to long ago. I've been looking to join or start a band as a keyboardist, I don't know, I live in an active musical community yet I don't know may other musicians.
    Don't let the world bring you down, not everyone here is that fucked up and cold. Remember why you came and while you're alive, experience the warmth before you grow old.

    Best two days of my life: Oasis at MSG and Pearl Jam at the Gorge.

    yes, but not within the last eight months. I've always been the sole female. Seriously, I don't think I would want to be part of an all female band. As much as it hurts to say it, they don't get the respect they deserve.

    How tall are you? At 5' 7 1/2, I still feel somewhat small playing the bass.

    Hi Puremagic
    You're Tall!
    I'm 5 feet tall. My neighbor is an awesome guitarist. He taught me to play, and made me start with a full sized bass, and so glad I did. It seemed like my arms and fingers just expanded! I had a hard time with the amp though, as I'm a little under a hundred pounds, and the amp must have been 200 lbs! It got away from me on a ramp once and it rolled right into traffic on South Street in Philly! He gave it to me to use, and put wheels on the sides and back and handles all over it so I could get it over curbs and into my house when no one was around. I just beat that thing up. He's got that amp in his studio now, and it sounds still sounds great! every one asks what the F*** that thing is. He just says it was fine till' he lent it to the crazy girl next door.
    Smile :)

    So what kind of commute is there to have a jam?

    I see New Mexico
    I see England
    Washington state?
    Green Bay?
    I'm 25 miles south of Philadelphia.
    Could we possibly be farther apart?
    Any Australia?
    Smile :)

    Representing Australia here :D

    I love to jam, I'm a chick, and I DO think it's sad that more chicks don't jam more! I am in a band and I play bass and we are considering having a 2nd guitarist who is a chick... but she was really nervous about playing loud at rehearsal, but that was cos she didn't know our songs and didn't really know us.

    It's hard to find good quality chick rock too... that is also quite depressing... but that's why we have to make a change in the male dominated world of the music industry!!

    Just think of us as rocking from around the world, we'd kickass bigtime if we could make that sound travel. Except we have too many bass players.

    I can play guitar and sing a bit as well... just that I am a bass player now cos I'm a bass player in my band... but I started out playing guitar so I will always be a guitarist at heart :) Even if I do suck... hehe

    I can't wait to learn to play the drums :D my fiance is going to buy a kit soon and my 14-year-old sister & I are going to learn how to play. I also want to practice bass, and learn some basic piano techniques (and YES, you can jam on PIANO! look at Tori Amos ;)) to be a more "useful" (versatile?) musician...

    I'll forego the bass and play the oboe, if I can learn how to mike it! I play a little violin and cello. I guess that's a little different from bass in my old punk band, but what the hell!
    Maybe we should just each make a tape with an instrument, and sent it in circles around the globe, and everybody adds to each one.

    not really. Same problem as you...can't find anyone. Plus I'm not that good yet at my guitar.

    I wanna drum, that's what I want to do.
