The Day the Bass Player Hit the Track

From Davy Jones to Hollywood Park — and one wild ride I’ll never forget

It’s funny how the strangest connections can show up in a bass player’s life.

One week I was swapping horse stories with Davy Jones from The Monkees.

Not long after, I was in California, playing a show at Hollywood Park — and let’s just say things got a little… fast.

You’ll see what I mean in this week’s Tales From the Pit video.

Watch and enjoy.

Let’s play bass!

    Loved this one. That turn the volume down reminded me of the band playing in some hotel and by the time we kept turning the volume down we looked like we were mimes…Thanks Jon

      Yep. You can never be sure exactly what you’re going to encounter. 😀 Thanks, John!
