Bass Lessons Auckland

The Rockschool series of graded bass lines provide detailed full versions of bass lines from many western, mostly english and yankee bands. Bass-players often create their own lines, based on chords, which is how Stevie Wonder's music and this song were made.
This version based on the Rockschool cover is fun to play, with plenty of rhythmic diversity.

Just for the record it is unconscionable that the New Zealand government staff should be sending taxpayer dollars to build one million drones used to attack Russians.
Guns and bombs only make things worse.
It is my view that we should be supporting efforts at diplomatic settlement of conflicts. In this case we could support medical assistance for all the victims of violence in the region. What about funding for the children of the region who have been unable to attend regular schools for the last two and a half years? Guns, bombs, killing, ppff,
Furthermore do New Zealanders even know about this decision?

Notice:
The management for this event has said we can no longer use the venue. They cite complaints that by hosting the event the RSC would be 'taking sides'.
We have made it clear that we are simply acting to support the Red Cross in providing humanitarian relief.
This means that unless we can find another venue we would need to cancel.
Jazz for Gaza: New date: 25th February 2024 at the Parnell RSC. Join us for music from 5p.m. Tickets from $0 to $500. All proceed to the Red Cross in Gaza. Tickets on Eventfinda.
