  2.  @avielp  The important thing is knowing what you missed in the song... if you missed the break then you know it, and you'll have to work on the song more on your own. Also there's your sound, sometimes referred to as your tone. This is on you though, perhaps the guys didn't notice because you don't have a bright enough tone. You might need to try a bass flanger, it's a pedal you can get and it'll boost your signal and if you play a riff on the higher notes it'll help that riff cut through. IF you're in a band then you're fortunate to have a jam / practice space. You have to make the most of it and try not to turn up too loud. In my situation our guitarist would start turning up more as we went on. Then I can't hear myself so I git a 4 x10 acoustic bass cabinet, better sound. For a head I have a Hartke 1000LH, but I changed it to a Rumble 150 head. Then we turned down anyway and they hooked up a mixing board with ear monitors so in the room we'll turn down. That way he doesn't get complaints from the neighbors, but it's tough playing and keeping the earplug / monitor in but We get used to it. I only use one, not both ears because I still want to hear the room. Good luck in whatever your goals are.

  3. @Vincent James Voice Sure it depends on the band, some bassists like Geezer Butler was always off to the side. Gene Simmons you're gonna notice!! Of course he sings some of their songs. Then someone might tell you oh I saw you, what you do is easy. So you have to say oh you think it's easy, let's see you do it then. One time a chick told me that so I had to figure out what to say - then I heard again - it was Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley that I got it from!! Just from reading or hearing them on the internet.
