I'm a late in life bandmember. I joined an established band a few years ago but due to a chronically unavailable lead vocalist we'd only performed twice before this past week. With our new vocalist we performed on Friday and we have a half dozen shows lined up this year.

So, all good. Except my more experienced bandmates forget that I don't know anything about performing, soundchecks, etc.

I managed to make enemies of our opening act by not moving my equipment off the stage prior to their soundcheck. I didn't know!

EDIT: by “my equipment” I meant a bass on a stand and a tiny pedal board. Opener was backlining my amp. Which they insisted on moving anyway.

So this is a plea to the experienced people out there: help us newbies with the basics. Remember that we don't know anything, and the pre-show nerves make us stupid when it comes to this stuff.

Just wondering if it's possible to create a raider on PS5 and play that same raider on Steam as well using my Embark account somehow.

I am interested in hosting a social event in which I teach 4 or 5 people some beginners basics on playing bass. Just a fun evening with snacks and beverages and an couple of hours of sitting in a circle and learning to play a simple baseline as a hands-on framework for teaching form, rhythm, tone, etc.

I have a big room, chairs, about 6 or 7 basses, and two amps. What I'd like to do is feed 3 or 4 basses into each amp and maybe isolate the signals so we're just hearing one or two at a time. Could I achieve this with something like a headphone amp, or some other way?

Thanks for any ideas and knowledge.
