I quit.

I quit.

She was 21 in that clip.

She's tiny... I like that.
Still, I quit. She got so good in just four years... I wish I could play a solo that smooth. I don't play that style of music, but still, it'd be nice to do.

Well, to misquote Samuel Johnson, my belief (with tongue firmly planted in my cheek) is that a woman playing bass is sort of like a dog walking on his hind legs - it is not done well, yet one is amazed to see it done at all.

My dog doesn't walk on them but she stands like that a lot.. and she's a girl. Lol.

Yeah, Bass Player magazine had an article on her this summer:

She obviously has a lot of talent. But I don't care for that tone at all. Too fingertip and rubbery for me.

Ya ... what he said ...
