Dood Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Ask Billy what his last 'lightbulb' moment was where he finally got something that clicked (as per the BC thread) Oh.. and ask him "If he had one question to ask any bass player (live or dead) what would it be?" - err.. as per the BC thread!

Dood Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 oh.. and what is his current signal path? (pictures are good!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 and one for me personally - Also ask him who books his tours, as next time round he should come to Norwich. I'm happy to help arrange it.. we know the right people!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassbloke Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Ask him why Tony Macalpine, Virgil Donati and Billy Sheehan were so bad when they played the Camden Underworld last September. I walked out early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is nice. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(pictures are good!)[/quote] in his 'advanced bass' dvd one of the extras is Billy boy in his garage talking through his rack setup. he shows and talks about how it's all wired up, what goes where etc etc. Quite an interesting DVD all round actually. peace c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
