Grateful Dead Music Forum

“If the thunder don’t get you then the lightning will!” The suddenly bass guitar-less The Thankful Dads seeks bassist with integrity, reliability, and love and musical knowledge of the Dead - everything else negotiable! We have 4 hours of music, vocals (add yours?), and an inspiring Fairfax practice space w/PA: we just need YOU! Drop us a line, let’s see if we can make it happen. Jon S. P.S. Even if you yourself aren't a bassist, we'll GRATEFULLY appreciate any and all help in sharing this request near and far with other potentially interested No. VA musicians because you never know where word-of-mouth can lead ...

Got your PM, but I got nothin'... Know a couple of great players, but they're involved in about as much as their old ladies will let them!

Let's not assume we know more about a dude's relationship w/his old lady than he does! Sometimes we live no particular way but our own. Spread the word & let 'em decide for themselves!

I will keep ya in mind but I am pretty sure i don't know any bassists near me that would fit the bill.

Good luck!

I'm too far away to be of much help, but here's a very good place to post an ad: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=154
