the music and concept was great he is an evil man and as someone has already said, hiding in plain sight despicable

The word for that might be "fricke".

Posted before I saw you had!

As much as I'm a fan of Steve Harris & Geddy Lee and would love to master loads of their basslines. If there was one I'd like to be able to play as a party piece, that would go down well with, I think, most people, it would be, The One That I Want from Grease.

Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick (at full tempo).

When I was a kid, in the late 70s, early 80s, I was pretty blown away by this and spent a long time learning to play it. Effectively it became so iconic, it became almost a joke song that everyone used to shout when any band was going to do an encore, regardless of who they were. For years you would hear it yelled at any gig. I have still heard it yelled recently so I am sure somethings never go away.

Fair play, Thomann said they'd rearrange and that this time the courier would definitely come with a label and I can take a photo of that as proof of collection which is fine. Will have to wait till friday though boooo!

Love that! Green finfishes ought to be more common. Green has taken over as my absolute favorite finish over black, though sadly I own no green basses, yet.

Bought an HX Stomp from Patrick last week. Excellent comms throughout, prompt delivery and even kept me updated with tracking details. I just need to learn how to use it now 🙂

Aye, and The Outlaws' selftitled debut album. Green Grass and High Tides is a true southern rock classic, clocking almost 10 minutes in the album version but live versions would often exceed 20 minutes. They're very much guitar-focused (three lead guitarists, much like Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Eagles) and feature a lot of vocal harmonies. Their third album Hurry Sundown is great too.

Danny Carey and Ronald Shannon Jackson is on it, so I am all fine... Knowing how these Top 100 Musician lists works I am not too nit picking about their position, which, especially in Ronald Shannon Jackson case, in reality ought to have been higher. I am just glad they weren't left out. However I couldn't have taken a Top 100 Drummers in a Rock magazine serious (not that I really do anyway) if they had left out Danny Carey. Danny Carey truly is one of the absolute greatest rock drummers of all times.

"Pete Thomas is the rock and roll drummer of his generation by some considerable distance," Costello tweeted last year, "and that you never read that in polls tells you everything you need to know about 'polls' and nothing about drummers." "Meanwhile, despite his recent retirement from touring, Peart remains perhaps the most revered – and air-drummed-to – live sticksman in all of rock, famous as the architect of literally showstopping set-piece solos." Strangest way to say Neil Peart died... No Gavin Harrison? Garbage.

I'm a massive Skynyrd fan and was into them before they broke over here in the early 70's, but strangely, Free Bird is my least favourite Skynyrd song, I find the intro and the verses dreary, and the solo's go on far too long. Gimme Three Steps, Simple Man, and Call Me The Breeze are my favourite Skynyrd numbers and were the first songs my new band's set list. 👍

I bought a gig bag off Michael and everything went smoothly. Many thanks and you're a credit to the Bass Chat community.

No Danny Seraphine? No Todd Sucherman? But........ Meg White....? It's almost like 'Rolling Stone' ENJOY not having a clue about music.....
