[musictlk] Any blind upright bass players out there

[Marion Gwizdala]

Mario,
	
	I am not an upright bass player; however, I have always wanted to
form a trio with two guitars and an upright bass. I advertised on Craig's
List for more than a year and never found one! I wish we were closer so we
could form a trio! BTW, my favorite upright bass player is Dick Kniss! (Not
sure of the spelling, but he played with Peter, Paul, & Mary, as well as
John Denver.)

Peace!
Marion Gwizdala
"Marion & Martin"

Hy.
I herd for a few blind bass players, but so far i didn't find one more
person who dived into the upright bass, or double bass as its being called
over here in europe, for their his main instrument.
I play bass for last 21 years and since 2001 i've bin playing fretless
basses exclusivlly, and since 2009 i took over upright bass as well. 
When i decided that i'm gonna spend quite some time with the upright bass,
the problem of transporting the instrument around had to be solved, so i
ended up on the electric version of upright bass, because its really
inpossible for blind individual to take a piece of furniture thru public
transportation while going to the gigs or rehersals without killing someone
:)

Well, if there are other blind upright bass players over here feel free to
contact me, or forward my contact to them if they would like to exchange the
info about various aproach to the instrument.
Ps: bass players who are only playing bass are not excluded ;) Thanks
