I have not seen Doug in months, always enjoyable to talk music and girls with.
He played for the USN jazz band and then became professional with several large bands.
I asked about him tonight at the VFW post.
Been trying to raise money for an Ampeg Baby Bass for him, he is shrinking in his old age and can no longer play a full sized upright bass.
Getting old sux...but it’s good that he still plays the bass, even though it’s a smaller one. Keeps the mind active.
