I'm the quiet bass player.

The worst thing I could be thinking is how could I be a cool bass player.

It's really hard for me to sing and play bass.

Let there be bass.

I wasn't originally a bass player. I just found out I was needed, because everyone wants to play guitar.

Teddy Wilson, I think, said a little while ago that it's much easier to come in and play whatever comes into your mind, without obeying any of the laws of bass line and harmony and so on.

I always got great respect as a bass player.

At the time, I didn't know that bass would not be enough for me. I'm not a bass player because bass is always a background instrument even to this very day.

Occasionally, when I run into a great bass backstage at a festival I'll play a few notes on the low E string, just to feel the instrument vibrate against my belly.

I don't play the bass. I'm not in a band. I tried to think of ways I could touch base with the troops and support what we're doing.
