after years of cramping at verse 1 of YYZ, I can now play it all the way thru. Not quite nailing it, but it sounds passable now If I was to play it live now, you'd say "good on him for having a go, but should've waited til he nailed it" I'm sure we would just say "good on him" I bet loads of bands split after being in a recording studio!

My only trouble now is that I played so many times this evening through headphones that it's etched on my brain - happy days!

To finally nail a song that you have been struggling with! I have been trying on and off to learn Stay With Me by The Faces for a little while now and I finally got a passable version laid down tonight. I must admit there is room for improvement but I'm pleased!!!! Does the above sound familiar?

Failed an audition recently but wasn't fussed as I didn't care much for the guitarist. I learnt my songs pre audition and then the guitarist wanted to throw several extra tunes in that he knew well and I ended up looking a right dick trying to find my way! I had a great audition a couple of weeks ago, played my socks off and had a fantastic couple of hours - the band folded a couple of days later due to the drummer quitting (at least that is what I was told) ;-)

Brilliant - thanks. If we anything like your soundcloud version I will be very happy.

That's strange but 20 minutes with fresh ears and I have a rough tab sorted - now to refine!

Or just the chord structure and I will make it up from there?

Would someone mind doing me a tab of Slow Death? It's one of ten songs I have to learn before a try out with new band this coming week! I have completed the usual Internet search but nothing coming up.

Last week I had someone agree to buy my bass from a Gumtree advert - price agreed and day agreed and then a email informing on the day of sale to say he was not going to buy. In my world if you get this far into a sale then it's a given you honour this but perhaps I am just old school ;-) I have loads of really good experiences from Gumtree buying/selling and will continue to use (for now).

Thinking back (which feels a long time ago) either The Meteors or Frenzy - I spent many nights travelling up from the West Country to The Klub Foot in Hammersmith, not sure how I passed this by my parents but I guess in those days at 16 years you were classed as a man!

There's a "one in one out" bass rule imposed in my house - at the moment I have two so the wife hates them! Once I am back to one bass she will love it ;-) Strangely though I have a double bass parked in the corner of our lounge that I no longer play but she doesn't want me to sell this.
