Gordon Bash

I do what I love and I love what I do.

About Me

"I'm the greatest lover in the world" (if you can name the person from whom that quote came, I'll kiss you). I can only say that I'm working on becoming the greatest lover in the world, because the greatest still lives in Cheviot Hills, (may he live forever). I love: playing the bass, working with Adam Smith, everyone in the Mortified After-School Orchestra, the Johnny Vana Big Band Alumni, balancing on curbs as I walk the line, climbing trees, collapsing in the sand at the Venice Drum Circle after furiously shaking the maracas my mother gave me, making lunch for Jessica, and hearing her sing and read to me
