The thing that's really rewarding is when people will say to me that they had actually given up the bass, but are going to start again because the online school seems like a good idea.
Music is one of those things that becomes a soundtrack to our lives.
I'll be forever grateful to this instrument for being the surfboard that I rode the wave of life on
All of the musical projects that I am involved with are near and dear to my heart and allow me in a small way to make a contribution to the world of music.
In rock 'n' roll, as we all know, the image is that it's one big party. But many times the reality is that it's the furthest thing from the party. There's the alcoholism and drug abuse that come because you're looking for that elusive 'thing,' and you don't know what it is or where it is. But you've got the money and the connections, and the choices are not always the healthiest.
I know that I am absolutely blessed beyond belief!
I've learned that, as much as you would like to, you can't trust everyone.
For me, love is an enhanced state of kindness, compassion, service, respect, and humility, an emotion I feel we are all here to give and to receive.
Creative people inspire me. Athletes also inspire me to come alive, especially my daughter, a competitive gymnast who works very hard, as much as six hours a day on her gymnastics skills.
For the obvious reasons, furthering my children's education and keeping my family healthy and thriving is my highest mission.
I begin and end each day with prayer, meditation, and thoughts about what I am grateful for.
I find that deep breathing and meditation help me handle practically any situation.
I practice yoga on a regular basis at my gym and when I travel. Yoga not only keeps me flexible, but I feel it enhance the quality of my blood cells through deep breathing. I also feel energized when I practice yoga, which helps me cope with my demanding schedule.
Steve Laury smokes playing octaves.
The Bassbone is just what I have been looking for... I can maintain the integrity of two instruments on stage or in the studio with control over the balance and keep my high standards for my low notes!
To our Soldiers: Thank you again and again, you will always matter, not only on this Memorial Day but every day!
From the moment I first heard Steve Laury play, I knew he was dangerous . . . He is an extremely gifted musician who makes great music! We go back 25 years and Steve will always be my dear friend.
