8vb or not?

[Dudeman]

I'm going to arrange this, but for those octaves in the left hand, should I write them higher and use an 8vb, or should I write them at actual pitch?

I think it would look better if you wrote them higher and use an 8vb.

I'd write them an octave higher without 8vb, because electric/acoustic bass notes on piano at pitch don't sound great most of the time. but if you're going to write them at pitch anyway, do what triforce says.

Thanks guys!
