Thank man. Keep in mind bass is all I play. I actually play guitar the same two finger style as I do bass since I'm not good with a pick, and that doesn't work well on guitar. Drums I can do one basic beat in 4/4 and one in 6/8, and when it comes to singing, I have this uncanny ability to sing in all 12 keys in one vocal phrase. I did write lyrics to a song over twenty years ago for a local band while in high school, ironically called, "The Coffee Song!" I think that somehow got lost in time, LOL. You play it all and write, so good work.
I especially appreciate the comparison to Brian Wilson. I do love the Beach Boys. Yeah, I haven't really mastered any one instrument, but I have written many songs. In writing, I know each song inside and out. Thus, I get what I want from each instrument. Sometimes, through trial and error. Sometimes, through happy accidents.
The other thing is that, since I do everything, I have complete creative control from the first written word to the final recorded master. It's a lot of fun, but I don't make money from it.
