Quote by Mayer Hawthorne
My dad taught me to play bass. Hes a bass player he still plays in

My dad taught me to play bass. Hes a bass player he still plays in a band in Michigan to this day. He taught me to play bass when I was about 6. I used to just go to band practice with him, and whoever didnt show up for rehearsal that day, I would take their spot. – Mayer Hawthorne
