Editors Notes for July 2010
Welcome to summer in hot steamy Nashville, TN! I hope you guys that are located in hot places are staying hydrated! It is beyond hot here in Nashville at this time. The temperature often dips to 87 F at night (LOL)!
Anyway, heat…what a good subject! What will you do when the [...]

Letter from “An” Editor
Hello friends, Matt O’Donnell, Bass Frontiers Managing Editor here. Dave asked me if I’d like to sit in and write the Editor’s Notes for this month. Needless to say (since you are, in fact, reading this), I went for it!

I hope all is well for you guys and gals and that summer will be a time of great prosperity for you touring musicians! I know firsthand from living in Nashville, TN that our summers are (for the most part) very good money months for musicians that tour.
I know I have talked about this [...]

I hope everyone is settling in to the new year and that it is treating you well. I have had the busiest winter that I have ever had (from a work standpoint), and so for this I am very grateful.
I just got home from Biloxi, Mississippi. I played there with Jamie O’Neal at The Isle [...]

Well, 2009 is gone and it seems that it went as fast as it came. The whole Bass Frontiers Staff is sitting on a plane headed for Winter NAMM in Anaheim once again. Time passes us by so fast and the older I get the faster it goes.
I would like to take this opportunity to [...]

One subject that you may hear me speak about in my editors notes time and again (to the point of being redundant) is preparation for what is ahead of you. Whether it is for a family you are planning, a season of sporting events, or a gig that may come your way that can [...]

I am sitting on my back deck, coffee in hand, writing this month’s Editor’s Notes. Today, I want to talk about Preparation.
I have been getting gig calls this summer and most all of them are with major artists that have (at one time) sold multi-platinum. I usually have to show up with NO rehearsals and [...]

Summer NAMM 2009 has come and gone. It seems we prepared for it for months…and BAM it was over just like that! It was a blast here in Music City USA, and though it was a small show it was good to see many dear friends.
Life can be full of uncertainty. For instance, many vendors [...]

Well, summer is in full swing, and it is growing hotter each day here in Nashville, not to mention as humid as all get-out. A lot of people hate the heat of summer in Nashville – I personally LOVE it, the hotter the better. Motorcycle season is here!!!
We hope that you can join us for [...]

I am sitting on a plane today heading to the Winter NAMM show in L.A., and I am a ball of mixed emotions at this moment.
Bass Frontiers Magazine has been and will always be a magazine for Bass Players by Bass Players. I am thrilled and excited about this particular NAMM show as we are [...]
