    You are absolutely essential. Music wouldn't sound good without you bassists. 😊

    I feel appreciated, but it wasn't always like this. I carried the band's equipment, got all the gigs, bought new guitars, drums, keyboards and a PA.
    I gave them my gig money. I even bought them tickets to concerts whenever they felt the urge to attend. I passed all the groupies over to
    the band members and picked up the tab for recording. Was it so wrong? Did they take advantage of me, or should I go ahead and pay their mortgages?
    What to do? What to do?

    I was/am a bass player, as far as live on stage (I play several instruments, but live, Bass is my instrument). I als have a good lead voice, so I sing too. I've never had issues with being the "murderface" of the band.

    A bass player support group is bass-ackward. Bassists support the group.
