I probably wouldnt. One classic rock covers band is pretty much like the other. Most of the stuff we play is also played by other bands on the local circuit in West London. On the other hand, we do some stuff that other bands dont do. (Yet)

What are you? - The hired hand? Tell them to go f*** themselves!

Never mind, your Limelights up for sale again.

That post is 3 years old, I dont think its on the system anymore. This any good? https://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/ocean_colour_scene/the_riverboat_song_bass_485838

David Icke tribute band?

It is well known that Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker hated each others guts. Dave Davies and Mick Avory had a punch up on stage. I used to play in a band where the guitarist and singer wouldn't speak to each other on or off stage, that made for some interesting gigs. Any other grumpy band member stories?

for sale is a lovely blue squier affinity bass

How very dare you! That was written by the God of bass Herbie Flowers!! But you are right.

When I crank up my MIM Precision and hit it hard with a pick through my Markbass combo, it gives a dirtier sound than my more expensive basses do. I quite like it. No effects nothing.

The camera work these days seems to be some fancy arty farty vertigo inducing modern art. I gave up watching some bloke being interviewed the other day, because the camera kept zooming in and out up this blokes nose and earholes while said bloke looked straight ahead at another camera which it flipped back to from time to time in black and white.

Blues Brothers stuff goes down well. Everybody Needs Somebody, Sweet Home Chicago etc.

I once played with a friend who was friends with Owen Paul (Who had a one hit wonder in the 80's) Owen Paul turned up and we played a few of his songs. (Including his hit)

Hey Jude. Boring, boring, boring, bo,... zzzz.

Pete Farndon was the original bassist. He played on the first two albums. I still play them today. Sadly he succumbed to substance abuse. ISTR he was temporally replaced by Tony Butler.

I dont know if could do that night after night. I saw one of the Beatles tributes up in Liverpool at the cavern recently and they were nowhere near the premier league status of the Bootleg Beatles. But playing someone elses stuff note perfect every night doesnt appeal to me. Having said that, Bjorn Again and the Australian Floyd and the Bootlegs have made some of the tribute bands almost as famous as the originals.

Need to tweak my rod a bit as I have some upward bowing on my MIM P bass. Do you guys always slacken the strings off first before making any adjustments?

He does it for a living so he must be a pro

I had a complete blank while playing Lenny Kravitz Are You Gonna Go My Way. Just before the guitar solo there is a little bass lick played in the upper register. Could I remember it? - Could I f***

On my MIM Lake Placid Blue's first ever gig we were squeezed into a corner of a tiny pub. There wasn't even room for my guitar stand, so a put the bass behind the speaker stand. Unfortunately, it had those retractable metal feet which took a bit of a chunk out of the paintwork. Fortunately, it was on the upper body contour at the rear of the bass so it coudnt be seen.

If found, please return to Pino Palladino

Only once or twice in 30 odd years of playing. Mind you, I used to keep the same strings on for a couple of years as a skint student. I once did a demo circa 1985 with my dead rotosounds and heard it again recently. Terrible.

I saw the Bootleg Beatles at the Royal Albert Hall two days ago and the sound was excellent! I dont know wether because that was due to the RAH having their own sound staff or the Bootlegs own sound man. Bloody good though!
