Cool idea, are we allowed to add to it since it's an open playlist?

Sorted, just used Internet Explorer in the end

[quote name='AntLockyer' timestamp='1411048494' post='2555935'] It is not worth worrying about. [/quote] I'm not worried mate I'd just quite like to hear it

Dammit, I can't get this to play and I've tried on two computers and a phone, anybody got any ideas?

[quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1410169988' post='2546674'] Sounds like the bassist got to put his own thing down, maybe? TBH I didn't think any of them had a bassline that I would remember, let alone want to learn. I know they wanted to sound like the Beatles, but every member of the Beatles was a talented musician. Taxman is one of my fave songs of theirs & I struggle to play the bassline. It could have been a simple root note affair, but they settled for better. [/quote] Oasis' first bass player Guigsy was so bad he didn't even play on their first album according to the original drummer's book, it was after he left around 2000 and replaced by Andy Bell (brilliant guitarist) that the bass started to move away from the root notes and get a bit more creative , probably due to Noel letting the others contribute a bit more to the songwriting around the same time as well. Like you said though, their music was never focussed on the instrumental side of things!

[quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1410153904' post='2546544'] Oasis are like most singer songwriter acts, it's all about the vocals. The music is there to provide a canvas, it's not part of the artwork. The bassline is there just to do a simple foundation. They could have easily have had better basslines on every oasis song. [/quote] I wouldn't say every song, some of their later stuff and a few early B-sides had some decent non root note only basslines. Go Let It Out Listen Up Soldier On Hung In a Bad Place To Be Where There's Life The majority of their stuff is just root notes though.

[quote name='The Admiral' timestamp='1409651294' post='2541789'] I think you'll find it is acceptable on BC to be a pedalophile though. [/quote] Oh baby..,

[quote name='fumps' timestamp='1409584340' post='2541170'] Eeeeeek !!!! classic though I once got it in my yunky patch .....ya know the bit between berty bum hole & Ya nut sack .....looks a bit like a Klingons forehead. That hurt like nothing i've felt before. [/quote] Ah you mean the gooch!

Can you even get bollock cramp? Sounds hilarious and painful at the same time

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1408644664' post='2532204'] What is it with the Hitler Youth hair cuts? They make kids look like evangelical Mormons. That can't be right!! [/quote] I read that as "morons" at first, I agree either way

[quote name='Weststarx' timestamp='1408446008' post='2530154'] I can tell you what youngsters are interested in these days and that is Made in Chelsea, The Only Way is Essex and Geordie Shore. I'm 21 and I have absolutely no interest in the above, but throughout school and college those above programmes is what everyone ever talked about and was what everyone was interested in. The idea is, you buy the most expensive designer clothing, and then to go out clubbing with the sole intension of making sure the night club photographer takes a photo of you and your mates flexing your biceps, pointing at each other, and looking seriously into the camera. They don't even have fun, and they are far too 'cool' to dance or even have a laugh. In my opinion youths of today are interested in trying to look like the 'stars' of reality TV programmes and want to get as many 'Likes' and 'Followers' on social media as possible. The youth of today are a generation of self obsessed morons. [/quote] This is pretty much spot on, an army of tattooed balloon animals in expensive vests and Hitler youth hair cuts.

Here's one of mine, a MIM Fender with a bridge pickup and three way selector switch put in

[quote name='Hobbayne' timestamp='1402561724' post='2474740'] He has also changed the key to some of them although that doesnt seem to have made a difference. Apart from The Beatles "Rain" should be played at the 12th fret. [/quote] 10th fret surely? Pedantry mode off

Which tonewater did you use?

Crazy Little Thing Called Love- fun for you, quite easy for him if you ignore the guitar solo

O Come All Ye Faithful?

[quote name='Dave Vader' timestamp='1391786992' post='2361316'] He should say, "If you are not a dull shoe-gazey indie muppet, you should't be in a band" or "Don't form a band". [/quote] Thank God, I can carry on as normal then!

[quote name='Conan' timestamp='1391172505' post='2354056'] I wonder how on earth one acquires a nickname like that? [/quote] With a hairy back and diabetes?

What happened to your Amplug? Mine's got a dodgy aux input after just three months, it won't work unless I keep the cable pinned between my bass and my thigh

Mine's f*****g s***e

[quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1390424764' post='2345410'] What problem does it solve? What new technology is it using? How does it facilitate a new form of expression with a guitar? [/quote] Maybe it just looks fun?

I like mine to sit just above the waist, pointless stuffing all those socks down my jeans if nobody's going to see

That was really interesting, he has a lot to say and I agree with him

The light on mine went out a few weeks after buying it in May, then last month it just completely died. I got a replacement within a week so fair play on that.
