[quote name='Freuds_Cat' post='37123' date='Jul 26 2007, 04:12 AM']Ahh the modesty of it all. Good to see you back ARGH I'm mostly a fingers player but I'm learning to use a pick after 29 years of playing, after I made a list last year of my 10 favourite players and realised that 8 were pick players. The Allen Woody Rumblekat does suit a pick I gotta say.[/quote] Is this the guy that passed away that used to play for GOVT MULE.

[quote name='Freuds_Cat' post='37106' date='Jul 26 2007, 01:44 AM']in the best tradition of Bill Wyman I apparently become totaly deadpan. Even though I do like to move around a lot (when possible) when playing.[/quote] MB1. Ron and Russell Mael SPARKS.....Ron still looks like adolf!

MB1. I can imagine his bass tutors really happy ,with the results,somebody must have put him up to it ,maybe not! saying that,he is quite GOOD....,FREE.... THE HUNTER....LIVE!

Does anyone play with this guy outside his bedroom?Or does he just play with himself?Im a right so ,and so when i,ve had a pint me!.I do tend to say what everybodys thinking!......

[quote name='bnt' post='36192' date='Jul 23 2007, 11:23 PM']I remember Tina Weymouth used to play a short-scale Hofner, though I doubt you'll find one of those at a sane price these days. What about the Status KingBass? With the "bendwell" option it's one fret shorter, making it about 32.1" (by my calculations). Mark King is quite a little chap who plays fast, so the short scale works for him.[/quote] MB1. +12ty... My Favourite Essex Girl.

MB1. Very Ambient (strap locks included?). HAPPY (belated)BIRTHDAY. All The best Martin.

MB1. When is a tube not a tube?.......When its a virtual tube?............Right?

[quote name='paul, the' post='36475' date='Jul 24 2007, 05:22 PM']That put me in a bad mood for Christmas. I know he was a bit of a knob, but the music was good.[/quote] MB1. Definately not good with the ladies, but responsible for putting some great bass players/musicians on stage.

MB1. Swing and jazz/got the rat pack straight away with swingshift ,you cant beat that big band sound,very powerful.So What,classic miles track covered by many ,but youve given it a new lease of life!.Tight as...............

[quote name='stewblack' post='36446' date='Jul 24 2007, 04:32 PM']Cheers for the heads up. Marvin Gaye I can see being worth listening to, James Brown needs to shut up screeching and sing occasionally apart from that as you say excellent bass stuff, but Jamiroquai? Spare me please, I couldn't stand one track of that mind numbing, soulless, ball less lift music. Each to their own of course, just my humble opinion.[/quote] MB1. Doubt James Brown(The godfather of Funk)is gonna be doing much more screeching?

[quote name='barneythedog' post='36088' date='Jul 23 2007, 07:59 PM']+1 to the extra long lead. I always do our sound, from the end of the worlds loooooongest lead. I must get a wireless soon !! [/quote] MB1. ......OH! that sort of wireless!........ Spinal Tap the aircraft hanger gig?.

[quote name='ShergoldSnickers' post='35790' date='Jul 23 2007, 07:32 AM']When I was gigging, a long time a go now, I used to keep an extra long lead handy so I could stand out front in the sound check. What used to be slightly alarming though, was how the sound changed when you moved about, and when the bodies started filling the place. That's where an experienced sound engineer comes in. Once it was explained why things were done in a certain way it all made sense. Worth their weight in diamonds. It's about cooperation and diplomacy from both sides.[/quote] MB1. +1

MB1. Alas, if you werent talking out of your arse i might be able to hear what your saying!

[quote name='ARGH' post='36062' date='Jul 23 2007, 07:05 PM']Never rely on a guitarist or engineer whos base level of experience comes from the early to mid 70s. or a singer....re:singer that means EVER![/quote] MB1. WHY? Seems The Who have managed nicely!

MB1. Spinal Tap at the airbase! Sorry bending the topic slightly but had to mention it.

[quote name='Adam' post='36023' date='Jul 23 2007, 05:59 PM']Always fingerstyle, I just feel im more in control, i have a big dampening technique goin on in my right hand, whihc ive worked really hard on, so to go to a pick now would be a waste of all them practice sessions refining my technique. Ads p.s, anyone found that some/most fingerstyle only guys are really snobbery to ppl who use a pick?/ i'm not one of em each to their own[/quote] MB1. I can play both, but like yourself,i feel more in control with fingerstyle. As for posh?.........i dont think she can sing at all!
