  1. Ah! The Dirty Mac A nice parody of Fleetwood Mac. Looks like the same bass as well!
  2. Our drummer broke his finger last week! We have a new singer joining our band and a lot of work to do. Bugger!!
  3. Oh! I,m going on saturday, I,ll get him to sign my copy of setting sons!!
  4. [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1328808404' post='1533040'] I can't believe that I was the first person to this.. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkwD261MHsc[/media] [/quote] Sorry to rain on your parade, but wasnt that Herbie Flowers on upright bass double tracked on his Fender Jazz??
  5. [quote name='leftyhook' timestamp='1328745869' post='1532221'] yes, almost posted that one. Beautiful heart-wrenching lines. [/quote] Agreed, and a great song too! You can almost forgive him for Hotel California!!
  6. Great to see the late Nicky Hopkins on keys. For those who dont know, he played on most Stones records, and The Beatles Revolution and John Lennons Imagine album too!
  7. [quote name='nicko1986' timestamp='1328779109' post='1532412'] Would you sell this for money? [/quote] Be careful, I was looking to trade my Stingray for a Precision and someone offered me money for it. I was told off by the forum police!
  8. In A New York Minuite by Don Henley, some great fretless playing by Pino, apparently! That surprised me, I never knew it was him!
  9. Fairynuff! dropped D it is then!!
  10. Has anyone played this song? Our new lead singer wants to do it, but I believe John Deacon drops the E string down to D. I was wondering if anyone else does this. Does it really matter?
  11. Red House bores me shitless! followed closely behind with Gimme Shelter.
  12. I wish I could keep it up like that!! - Fingerstyle I mean
  13. Is that the new penthouse studio? Well, opened in the 80,s anyway
  14. I have bought several [i]excellent condition [/i]basses off ebay and they all have needed a bit of work doing to them. I always take 'Excellent Condtion' with a pinch of salt.
  15. Yes I did cut the treble, but it did seem to reduce the presence of the bass a bit.
  16. We had a new singer come to rehearsal tonight, and we ran through our set list for him. He wanted to have a go at All Right Now by Free. I had my MM Stingray and was playing with a pick all evening. When we got to he bass solo part, what a racket! Oh well, you live and learn!
  17. Most overseas visitors like to have their photograph taken crossing the street a la Beatles, outside the famous recording studio in Abbey Road, North West London. I guess thats both musically and historically too!!
  18. Yes, it is Ab, Eb, Bb, F. I just root third and fifth over the chords and jump down to the bottom F at the ending. I thinks thats how they do it. BTW, the Kula Shaker version misses out the 2nd and third verse for some reason.
  19. [quote name='leftyhook' timestamp='1326894285' post='1503311'] 26p for the laces from the trainers? [/quote] Unfortunately the dog got them!
  20. Who is this guy playing bass with everyones favourite misery guts? He seems to be enjoying himself even less than old git face!! Cracking tune though! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5a6gJm6Ur7s&feature=related[/media]
  21. My band used to do a cover of 'Aint No Fun Waiting Round To be A Millionaire' by AC/DC which is really 6 miniutes of a D root note playing 8th notes. I made it a bit more interesting by dropping to the F# and running up to the A by a chromatic scale. Made it a bit more bearable for me.
  22. Ticket ordered for Saturday although I must say I,m not a fan of those 'Print out your own ticket' affairs, I'll have to go and buy some ink for the printer now!!
