Great bassists who most people don't know
MacDaddy replied to SteveXFR's topic in General Discussion
Mark Mendoza, Twisted Sister. Phenomenal player, awesome stage presence, thoroughly original and visual technique. Twisted Sister retired in 2016 after spending the previous 10 years or so headlining the biggest rock/metal festivals around the world, yet most of bass chat probably haven't heard of him. -
So in terms of the practicalities... assuming the drummer is playing to a click, they'll be wearing headphones/earpieces to hear it (unless the click is put through a monitor?) so how will they hear the rest of the band?

Competition from the Peavey Vypyr VIP 3, which can be had for under £300. Amp modelling for bass and guitar, with a bunch of FX, and loud enough to gig with (I've gigged mine on bass in large pubs with no worries).

That was my first thought! 😆

did you get better?

Can I give you a 'wow!' ? That fretboard is stunning 😎

Does politics belong in music? Does a social conscience belong in music? Does love belong in music? etc... But to answer with some favourites: Hurry up Harry - Sham 69 My cousin Kevin - The Undertones Be Chrool to Your Scuel - Twisted Sister and Alice Cooper

Many years ago, an originals band I was in changed vocalists. My playing was initially all over the place with the new singer, as I didn't realise how much I'd been relying on vocal cues. Lesson learned and rectified for future bands.

It seems to be a bit more complicated than I would have thought. I'm still not sure what is meant by 'bridging' and 'parrallel'?

There's only one way to resolve this.

Not anymore, those little blue pills are marvellous ☺️

Back for a refund or to be replaced?

Trojan Gear Cart- heavy duty gear trolley
MacDaddy replied to yorks5stringer's topic in General Discussion
i've still got a blue Ikea trolley. Great for indoors on hard floors, not so good anywhere else. -
back in the day, I was gigging in my metal band and wearing suitably clumpy boots. Too clumpy as it happened, as the toe cap was too broad for my multi fx. The first time I tried to change a patch I pressed 2 switches which put me on mute for the tuner 😖

bonus points if it has a 'Keep music live!' sticker 😆

Black Gaffa tape. Multitude of uses, gigbags should never be without.

On the one hand I'm sorry for y'alls tales of woe, but on the other I'm really enjoying this thread!

On one of Twisted Sister's albums, in the blurb where the band list their equipment it said 'Dee Snider uses Vidal Sassoon protein hair remoisturiser, are you listening Vidal?'. On the following album it said 'Dee Snider no longer uses Vidal Sassoon protein hair remoisturiser, looks like you blew it Vidal!'.
