pietruszka Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Personally I would do that to a Fender. I don't like them. However! If I was rich enough to chuck stuff like that as part of a show in a rock band, then why not!! On a serious note (no pun intended), I wouldn't throw an instrument.

Blademan_98 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I know it's supposed to be cool to do that but I personally get upset if my instrument gets a ding! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamPodmore Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Looking at that i have a high suspicion that that bass was the exact same after that song as it was before, a tech most likely caught it. Slash, Alex Gaskarth and Taylor Swift have all thrown guitars and had their tech catch them. Either way, he can afford it, and i would do that to a Fender.

Blademan_98 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 It's not the affording that I mind, it's just that I love musical instruments so much I don't like seeing the damaged Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krth1985 Posted March 11, 2011 Author Share Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) from the horses mouth Mr Brian Marshall himself when I asked if that was CIA he chucked: "nah.. a fender reissue of some sort...it met it's demise later that year in orlando. no wonder it never stayed in perfect tune." I've asked him a few things on facebook, and he has always replied. He is the reason i picked up a bass, so for me thats cool as f Edited March 11, 2011 by krth1985 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huw Foster Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I've seen plenty of videos where Prince gets a bit cavalier with his Tele, mind. It wouldn't surprise me to hear he employs someone just to catch it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrismuzz Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 All the kids are bumming Alter Bridge half to death at the moment. Especially since their most recent album was released. Thankfully I kept to my usual abit of ignoring any hype. Heard them last week in a bar. Boy are they overrated! It's amazing what a good advertising campaign can do to even the most mediocre (or terrible) band! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Foxen Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 There is a story about Jaco arranging for his tech to catch the bass off to one side of the stage. Then throwing it out the other side of the stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krth1985 Posted March 12, 2011 Author Share Posted March 12, 2011 You've just played played to your biggest crowd ever at Woodstock - I doubt he was thinking best pack my sh*t up incase it gets dinged.

It wouldn't stay in tune, so he took it off mid-gig & threw it to his guitar-tech in the wings ............ who wasn't where he usually was!
