Flea and Fieldy!

Sounds like he just wants to join your band so he can boast he's in 'XYZ' band... Sad but true - I've had people come up and ask me in the past if such and such is in my band - for some reason guys I knew from school/college/work would tell others they knew me and played in a band with me!?

Incubus for sure. Never had a good album since Dirk Lance left.

I'll say what I say when someone asks me about any new artist and my opinion of them etc. SHUT UP AND LISTEN TO FUGAZI. Thank you.

Don't mind usually but I do prefer playing stage left but not because of the hi-hat but because of the ride cymbal. Don't know why but it inspires me more when the drummer is grooving on the ride and I can play along with him/her/it.

When I was 13, I decided to learn an instrument - guitar or bass. Anything else (at the time) was out the question. I picked bass because a) I loved that low end rumble when I tried one and it just seemed much cooler! 10 years on I still believe I made the right choice. I started learning guitar when I was 17/18 but I'd still pick bass everytime. It still makes me laugh as well when you ask a musician what they play and they say 'I'm a songwriter'. If you play an instrument and write your own riffs then you're a songwriter anyway! Redundant term IMO.

Jeez, Flea is clearly the bass equivalent of Hendrix...

Sold my Jackhammer pedal to Neil - payment received straight away, no problems at all.

MATT BELLAMY - LET YOUR BAND MATES WRITE SOME SONGS.

[quote name='JMM' timestamp='1349120050' post='1822138'] I've just finally got around to ordering my Polytune mini. Something else I have just noticed is that the Boss TU-2 has an accuracy of +/- 3 cent, the TU-3 has a better accuracy of +/-1 cent, but the Polytune is +/- 0.5 cent, so 6x more accurate than the TU-2. [/quote] I believe the Polytune is only that accurate in strobe mode...
