>>>But wait a minute, Pat, don't you play STAND-UP BASS? Or am I confusing
you with
a different Pat?<<<

        I play both....lately more electric than standup.  There are some
very fine players use a stool to play standup.  I prefer to stand up with
either bass.
        I tried using a stool to play standup....it just didn't feel right
to me.
