Bass shot of the day
Here’s a shot of Italian rockabilly bassist Fabio Cinque from a live concert in Palermo. Fabio is a member of Adel’s, a rockabilly band from Caltanissetta in Sicily, and you can check them out at www.myspace.com/adelsrockabilly. If only my bass were half as stylin’ as this one!
