Dixie Whiskey - Eyehategod

Debussy Whipped - Butcher Babies

Viva Las Vegas - Dead Kennedys

I'm seeing them at The Fleece in Bristol, great venue and the world's stickiest floor

Lost in Holywood - System Of A Down

I've not seen Unsane before but I have seen Part Chimp, they put on a solid show.

I put a Darkglass preamp in my old Sub Ray. It made a big difference, the stock preamp is junk, replacing it with just about anything is an improvement.

Next up is New York hardcore punk legends Agnostic Front supported by Matt Freeman of Rancid's new band Charger. It's going to be a good night.

Cute Machines - Scars On Broadway

We went to a Motorhead tribute show last night. I wasn't convinced i wanted to go but there was beer there do I thought why not. I was really impressed by Motorheadache, their Lemmy had all the right gear, some of it ex Lemmy. Obviously having all the gear is no good if its not played right but he was spot on and the vocals were really close. Their Fast Eddie and Mickey Dee were really good as well. If you're interested, there's a load of details about the bassists gear here https://www.motorheadache.com/

Guerilla Radio - Raga Against The Machine

Plenty of famous musicians have had very distinctive instruments stolen. Klaus Flouride, Dead Kennedys bassist had probably the most distinctive and battered looking jazz bass in punk but that didn't stop it getting stolen. Doyle from Misfits guitars are home made one offs and he's had a couple stolen.

I recently saw Intronaut live. Excellent bit of prog metal with fretless bass

Wreck of the SS Needle - Cult Of Luna

Shoot to thrill - ACDC

Good Vibes - The Residents I can't be bothered to get a video link

Love buzz - Nirvana

A lot of them seem to be using Epiphone or Squier budget instruments. Why would Fender or Gibson choose to sponsor pros with their budget kit?

Does the Veyron match the valve amps for dirty overdriven tones or is it just clean?

Auto Pilot - Queens Of The Stone Age

I'm sure I heard in an interview it's a bass he bought while still a student (skint) and he just liked it so kept using it.

Schools out - Alice Cooper Sorry for taking the obvious choice

Mike Kerr of Royal Blood uses a Gretsch Junior Jet bass. The mountain of gear he plays it through definitely isn't budget

I'll be sure to tell Mrs XFR that
