    [quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1430498537' post='2762118'] Ooh, jealous! We do Babooshka in the 80s covers band I'm in, love it. I'd like to add Running Up That Hill too. EDIT I just realised our lead singer went to see you guys in Camberley I think, she was very impressed. I'm also in a Floyd tribute trio - Rethink Floyd. [/quote] Cool! thank you very much Babooshkas a cracking track to play aint it?

    I take 3 basses with me for doing the KB stuff - and that's just one artist (tribute), a P strung with ancient flats, a J strung with fresh and tight rounds, and a fretless. Id love to be able to do it all on just one bass, but its just not possible for the range of tones I need to emulate. One day id liketo try an upright too

    Pauls Simons brother, Simon, changed his name to Paul to make things less problematical in the Simon Household. "Its so much easier said Pauls father Simon, even my wife Simone can work it out" said Mr Simon. Simone Simon had a differnet view though "It gets a bit tricky when playing games like Simple Simon" she said

    [quote name='SpaceChick' timestamp='1428833504' post='2744921'] I just say "Thankyou, I'm glad you've enjoyed" I'm another that doesn't take compliments too well!! You can always tell when it's a general punter or a muso punter... The muso punters always mention the fretless! [/quote] that ^^ The singer in my Kate Bush band gets the "You sang that better than KB herself!" quite often, but the other night I was told "You played better than John Giblin himself" which I cannot believe for a second.....ok just a second or two then Of course my unassuming bassist brain soon reminded me that 'better' is a relative term, peculiar to the beholder, and is easily swayed by 'alcohol'

    Hi, for sale here is a Squier jazz that you may have seen before, this used to belong to StingrayPete of this very parish, ive just got too many basses now having acquired a tasty Ibanez fretless the other day and this just isn't getting played as I spend all my time on my gig basses. Im going to put a link up here to Petes original thread as he described the bass better than I can. Im after what I paid, which is £275 posted. The bass is just as it was when I got it, except ive raised the very low action a bit to cater for my slightly clumsier playing style. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/210670-squier-jazz-bass-with-loads-of-tasty-mods-sold/page__p__2129019__hl__jazz__fromsearch__1#entry2129019"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry2129019[/url] Bass is near Axminster if anyone wants to collect. cheers,
