Ah yes, happy chappies all after recording Dominic Kirwan’s new album live together in the studio the way it should be done with real people playing together and bouncing ideas off each other.
Wouldn’t it be great if it was always like this. 🙂

I had a great day yesterday giving a talk and demonstration about Bass styles and playing techniques to a group of very enthusiastic teenagers in Longford.
It’s very inspiring to see how willing they were to sit still for several hours and listen and enjoy what I had to say and play and not a texter in sight. 😎
