I think most musicians would agree that playing songs is one of the best teachers of music. Not only is playing actual songs fun and fulfilling, but we musicians also get to experience different bass lines, fills and grooves that will help us improve our skills and expand our repertoire.
A couple of days back I was playing in a wedding gig and played through 10 bass lines which taught me how to be a gigging bass player. These tracks have definitely been instrumental in how I progressed as a professional musician.
