my bassist doesn't get it

Hi there,

What stage have you got to with some of these lyrics? If they are complete songs and your band is playing them, well stuff the bass player! Are you the singer and do you sing your own lyrics, the fish thing?

Sounds to me if you wrote it and you are singing it and the whole band as agreed to play it, you just need to have more faith in your song words and not bother so much about the bass guy. That's the good part about a band, different approaches and characters all mixing together. The hard part sometimes is holding it all together....

The fact that you asked the question here makes me wonder if you're not too sure about the lyrics yourself. If it means something to you and you get to perform it, then be strong and stick to your guns.

Yeah! Gordon.
