I guess it's an addiction since I was a kid, started with a heavy metal in the late 80's, then old school rock / bluesy stuff / then I am proud to live through the seattle scene movement / I even dare to say I know a bit about the jazz / fusion scene as I interested in that too in a certain period.
Then I got an old bass for my 16 birthday and played for 18 months every day at least one hour, until I was ready to play in my first band.
But as far as we were and are top friends and the guitar player is a guy who I know since childhood and would kill for him, we were never able to agree on the musical direction, as I also always preffered to play something rougher and heavier than my mates. Btw. they just won a recent national contest and are releasing their first record soon (not with any big brand but partly on their own costs).
So I never got to make it myself, but I always remained seriously hooked, I like to read books about my favourite bands and to browse allmusic.com, even wrote about music a bit and played in a local college club to try to ressurect the rockin times (bands like Alice Cooper / AC DC / lots of 70's and 80's heavier but more like arena stuff ). I am sure there won't be a time when I would not be able to explore something I have never heard yet.
