Re: Paul Boyer's book
Fantastic news, Paul (and about time too, all considered!) Please let us know as soon as it's available, and I'll be mightily pleased to take a couple of copies and a couple of bass time-line posters off your hands! (you wouldn't charge us extra for signed copies, now, would you?!)

Congrats Paul! It's great to hear the book is progressing!

I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

The more pix the better, and better to choose from. I can't promise I'll use everything I get, however.

I'm on it, been waiting for a sunny day.bassduke49 wrote:FINALLY!
Heard from my contact at BackBeat Books today (28 Dec.) that they will be sending me a contract in early January. The advance for the book will allow me to afford the software that they need me to use, and I'll be rolling again this winter. Right now, they are giving me a year to finish, but I'm going to come in early no doubt.
So now all you guys who have promised me photos, now's the time to come through and be a part of the book!
Yeeehaw!
