What are your hobbies? Genuinely trying to find something new for myself.
Right now my free time mostly goes into watching series and checking trades, and I want to add something that actually feels productive or fulfilling instead of just passing time.
Curious what you’re into, and honestly, why you got into it in the first place. Doesn’t need to be impressive or unique, just real.
My free time is divided between audio books, video games, some TV, mostly YouTube, and learning bass guitar.
I try to skateboard once or twice a week in the summer, and snowboard at least twice a month in the winter.
I have a few motorcycles but those are more cheap transportation these days than a hobby.
The skating, snowboarding, and motorcycles are my “Screaming at the gods”. Dangerous activities that require total focus so everything else in life can be forgotten for a while.
Books and the bass are to keep my mind active and learn new things.
Fellow bass player here. Who are the bass players you’re listening to?
I have the world’s most expensive PlayStation controller. For the past five years I’ve pretty much only played Rocksmith 2014, and have a few hundred songs downloaded. I’m about to hit 1000 hours played.
On my fourth bass, a brand new Ibenez fretless, and finally have a setup without all the buzzing and crap of a cheap bass.
I like blues, classic rock, but my brain just seems hardwired for 90s grunge as that was my youth.
Greenday, Offspring, Primus (on easy) are my go to. Really enjoy Me and Bobby Mcgee by Joplin and Moonage daydream by Bowie when I’ve been drinking.
Been thinking about taking lessons at a local store, I really want to learn to read tabs and get things setup to play along with YouTube.
I’d love to be able to play some Pink Floyd, Phish, and Grateful Dead. Other than three Dead songs there’s none of that available.
I live in an apartment so it’s all headphones.
