I saw QOTSA support the Foos at the Stratford Rex of all places, around the Rated R era. My main memory of them is Nick Oliveri playing a see-through Ampeg bass. I've never been a big fan but the Mrs likes them. Anyway, getting slightly back on topic, my former cover band had No One Knows in their set when I joined, but didn't think it necessary to drop tune to C. It sounded terrible and I refused to play it without tuning down.

The German Guns - Baldrick

No You Don't - NIN

That's no guilty pleasure, Marina is incredible!

That Never Say Die concert is hilarious. Standard tuning but playing the riffs in the same position - so, on record, Symptom of The Universe riff is in E but played in C# tuning but suddenly jumps up to G in standard. Ozzy looks like he's going to give himself a hernia. I always thought Geezer's tuning matched Iommi's though...

Charlie Don't Surf - The Workhorse Movement

Carouselambra - Led Zep

If ever a bass was meant to be fretless, it's that Pro!

Hang 'em High - Sons of Merrick

Oh, that was a glorious bass! I was never too keen on the baby sick finish but that neck was something else! It had a really distinct stripe to it as well, you don't see that often. Haven't got it anymore 🥺

SO good.

Don't Speak - No Doubt

Tears - Rush (or Ken Dodd)

Your fireplace defeats my fireplace.

Thanks to @Paul S, this joyous old thing - weighs hardly anything and it's just lightning fast to play. It's my favourite to play unplugged but amplified it's a Rickenbacker/Precision hybrid - aggressive clank with a warm and full midrange.

Ride On A Pony - Free

Living In The Plastic Age - The Buggles

I'd love to hear a decent isolated track of The Real Me, the one on Youtube sounds like it's being played on a gramophone.

I Am Ahab - Mastodon

That was a wicked thing to do. Wicked.

Parents - Budgie

If only there was a clue as to which amp it's supposed to sound like...

Jet City Woman - Queensryche

Keep Moving - Madness

Now I'm Here - Queen
