  1. Being optimistic I'd say my band can start looking at the Christmas setlist...
  2. I remember the presenter who seemed to have his guitar under his chin 😆
  3. Jeff Pilsson - Dokken It's not love, from the live album Beast from the East. Arena filling bass in a 3 piece (+ vox). The YouTube vids don't do the bass sound justice.
  4. Keep the Trace, but get a decent trolley to cart it around on?
  5. Seeing Nikki Sixx throwing shapes and posing. Nothing to do with bass lines.
  6. I seem to be gassing for one of these. Does anyone in that London have one - 300 or 500, and would maybe let me have a fiddle with it? Obviously once the apocalypse is over. Ta!
  7. I'm not the biggest Jaco fan, but I did enjoy his take on this Hendrix classic;
  8. Thought it was going to be the baby elephants...
  9. I don't think any band has filled an arena in the last fortnight!
  10. And also punk happened 'because of'. Depending on your definition of Punk, it has been filling arenas and stadiums for the last few decades.
  11. Well flap me sideways, I've done it again. How nice. 3 times in the last 4 days.

      It's interesting how posting bad jokes gets you points.

      When this little lot is over maybe you should try and make your fortune in the Christmas cracker joke writers' community...?

      I shouldn't take the wee-wee.  It's good for morale.  Carry on.

      It's definitely not my in depth bass knowledge that's popular! 😝

      It's like when you have to do drinks after work.  You don't really want to spend your down time talking shop.

  12. Badgers not withstanding, this thread has gone quiet. No-one online gigging? Maybe Steve Lawson could contribute?
  13. Today should have been epic, as I had a gig in a pub by the finishing line of The Boat Race. The pub want to rebook us - which is awesome - but today would have been guaranteed crowds and a great atmosphere.
  14. Bernard's line are great. Do you play them like him, finger style, but often using the finger like a pick? Could be wrong, I haven't watched any tuition bids, but that looks like what he's doing when playing.
  15. Ooh, I won the day. Yay me!

    Do I win £5?

      Sure.  You even get a choice...

      Muscle weighs more than fat, so I'll take the muscle ;)

  16. Who else should have been gigging tonight?
  17. https://www.reaper.fm/download.php I'm tempted, self isolation would seem to be the perfect time to finally learn? Is the Basschat Reaper collective available for advice and support?
  18. My band have agreed to play a couple of our regular (well paid) venues for free when they reopen.
  19. Yup. Rhythm Stick Also, Keep the Faith. Not particularly difficult just relentless. Took a while to nail it, the secret seems to be to use the open D.
  20. All March gigs now cancelled, although we are in the fortunate position of them all being rearranged.
