Hi, I'm a bass player looking for people to play music with! I played a lot in my 30s, gigging around all the usual North London venues in a band playing original material. But since having a family I haven't managed to get back into it. I'm now in my 40s ...

I'm mega rusty, but would quickly get back up to my former level of (ahem) excellence, given the incentive! I play fretless but not in an annoying Jaco Pastorius sort of a way, I'm more of a groove player. I can also play keyboards and sing backing vocals. I play flute too.

I'm fairly open minded in my musical tastes, would be happy to play covers, rock, pop, whatever. I like Latin and have played some jazz (not for a long time though). I should also point out, I'm a GIRL (well, lady actually) - which seems to be a selling point for bass players, not sure why.

I'd like to join a gigging band as I'm not a big fan of bands that seem to spend their lives rehearsing but never really quite get out there. But to be honest anything would be an improvement on allowing my bass guitar to gather dust in a corner, like it has for the past 10 years.

Get in touch!

  Its that time of year again, past Christmas day and late delayed cards are turning up. How late are your cards arriving ? Last year I had one delivered 4 weeks late. Can that be beaten this year ?

  Sadly, a lot of businesses didn't invite reviews on the EDF at that time due to a number of "negative nellies" that would take delight in posting unfavourable comments, often despite never being to the business in question. No matter how good the place was, some posters would find fault that wasn't there "don't lile the colour of the bidet set in the private bathroom, avocado 😅" Can hardly blame businesses at the time for not wanting reviews on here, thankfully that has mostly changed now.

  Was that the Hare Krishna place? I can't remember exactly where it was (or maybe still is) but it was somewhere around Oxford Street.
- Any interest in a Barter scheme?

  The "for sale" section on this forum lets people offer things for free or cheaply. And the "wanted" section let's people ask for things they want or need, for free or cheaply. There are also existing schemes like Freecycle, and also local food banks. And there is (or was) a local scheme where you can bring things to be repaired free. I think it is/was based in Nunhead. Isn't that simpler than having a barter system? You might have something to give away, but the person who wants it might not have anything you want. Or have I misunderstood how it works? I can see that offering services free might not fit into existing schemes, but depending on what they were, what would happen if things went horribly wrong eg someone wrecked your house? Sorry if the above sounds very negative.
