I am sure that if you have specific question members of the forum would be glad to help. But asking for someone to teach you how to play bass is probably a little too broad of a topic :)
Also check out CyberfretBass.com (http://www.cyberfretbass.com)

go to the "Techniques" section for hammer-ons, pull-offs, and harmonics. tapping, pick scrapes, and muting are mainly guitar techniques so i wouldn't worry about those. soon il PM with tab once i get it written out. distortion makes the bass or guitar sound, well, distorted. its what you here in pretty much all rock bands guitars. basses dont really use distortion much, mainly overdrive. check out the BOSS Bass Overdrive pedal.
Thanks hehe. Feal Free to add me to yoiu Messenger On MSN or E-mail me it is fine.
What would be a good way to find a drummer. This Town dose not have many that i know of . i guess i could just post an add at wal-mart or somthing. if you have any ideas pleas Post.

start with a new one. get someone interested teach em and have them take lessons. i did that with my bassist although hes not very good, neither is his bass.
Yea i would do that except it takes a while to get that drumming technique down. And we need one soon. We are Tired of Dubbing in us playing the Drums on our songs. BTW I will be making a FLo56 Site.
It Looks good right now Stills needs Improvment. I will Give you the site when it is complete.
ps:
Don't dis a Bass they are all good except the Crappy ones... If you can find one. ;)

Muhahaha i started on bass but scales get old slaping gets old and i don't want to end up like the guy that plays for Seinfeld so i moved to electric guitar. Getting a stratocaster! So Wooha
