As December Falls - Live at 2000 Trees 2022

I don't feel like feeling great - with speech from Bethany before the song about fitting in and being accepted.

Who plays bass for them during their live shows?

I've seen a reply where they said they just play an isolated recording of the bass track, but one day they might hire an actual touring bassist. I suppose that works because some solo artists just perform with a fully pre-recorded instrumental anyway. But here they're just filling in the one missing part. I don't think it is likely they would want to recruit a full time bass player who becomes a true part of their band because Timmy is a key songwriter, and the way he writes and plays the bass parts is probably vital to their music in general. The way I see it, a permanent member would also cost more than a touring member because once you add a true member all the income would then be split 5 ways instead of just the costs for performing each show.

@@RickyRockstarTNS True, playing along with a track like that though can be very limiting. Or maybe they have a bassist who performs offstage? U2 do that with a touring Keyboard player called Terry Lawless.

@@soeffingwhat That's a possibility because that reply I saw was a while back. They could have one by now.
