I like them for what they allow me to do but there's no deeper connection, any more than I have a particularly spiritual connection to my kettle or my laptop.[/quote]

+1 they can sound, look and feel wonderful but they are objects. Sorry but love just doesn't come into it.

good stuff, great playing from everyone I thought. lovely groove

[quote name='NAS' post='858964' date='Jun 6 2010, 03:48 PM']Most usually my part ends up being a slightly bastardised version of the original with personal fixes to cover the bits I can't seem to get right[/quote]

That's what I'm ending up with at the moment. We're playing a few motown tunes and I just can't play well enough to replicate the lines!

I've been thinking about this very topic recently as I've just joined a covers band for the first time and would be really interested on people's opinions on this.

Lets be honest, on the majority of songs, the average punter probably wouldn't notice a different bassline as long as it fits with the song.

Never during a gig, and only a couple of times ever. I think G strings when I was trying to learn slap.

I always carry spare strings and usually a spare bass, just in case.

my favourite spoken word/rapper at the moment

+1 essential

oo nice, any chance of some sound clips?

Nope, started out on clarinet, hence my penchant for a tight embouchure. but put it in the attic of my parent's house and haven't played in ages.

Picked up bass a few years back and have played acoustic guitar (badly) and keyboards (very badly) for a few months but now getting tempted to pick up an electric guitar for recording purposes.

Very much see myself as a bass player who tinkers with other instruments.

er woah!

its a bit more metal than I can handle but sounding good. Did you record with your Streamer?

agreed, they are awesome trousers.

yum.

Used to play with a guitarist who used one of these, great noise.

Good luck with it.

very suspicious.

I can't think of any reasons (correct me if I'm wrong) why you wouldn't be happy to give out details on something you're selling unless you've got something to hide.

Me too. That's the first sensible thing I've heard all day.

wicked. Hope it goes well

cool, sounded like a fun gig with an appreciative audience.

[quote name='purpleblob' post='817957' date='Apr 25 2010, 11:35 AM']I like it, very cool.[/quote]

+1 very cool, feel like I should be listening in a late night bar with a fancy cocktail looking at pretty girls instead of in my living room.

nice, like it a lot.

Just downloaded (thanks very much!) and listening now. Very impressive. Not my thing but obviously very nice. Going to recommend to a couple of people who I think will like it.

[quote name='Mog' post='831537' date='May 8 2010, 03:59 PM']Some very cool tunes there lad. Couldnt get a proper listen in due to crappy laptop speakers but it it seemed fine from here. Just what ya want on a chilled out afternoon.[/quote]

+1 nice tunes, also on crappy laptop speakers.

Wicked, love it. Not sure if its my computer but the songs kept cutting out. probably a problem this end though..... I'll get my coat

Hiya,

Nice playing. Good luck in finding work/sessions.
