Influences: Bass Talk with Abe & Laneâ„¢ is heavily influenced by the hosts' desire to promote the concept of community among players of all levels and styles. By supporting each other, we can all get more out of our playing -- and our lives.
To that end, we'll be offering many segments designed to help you be a better player, get more out of your gear, and (hopefully) make more money and have more fun.
We're also heavily influenced by how much sleep we've had in the past week, how much caffeine we've ingested in that past three or four hours and the poetry of Alejandra Maria Conchita Gonzales y Sensimilla-Juarez. We're just sayin'...
Sounds Like: Sounds like:
More fun than you can shake a stick at.

You should tune it.
