Dood Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 I thought things were going just great up to 3 minutes or so - some really nice harmonies in there. The phone rang so I didn't watch to the end, but it did go a bit murky.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oopsdabassist Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Cheesy yes,and ultimately...boring, not my cup o' tea at all, reminded me of 2 guitarists I know trying to outdoor each other on stage at a benefit show, very embarrasing.

TheRev Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 You've got to admire the attitude of the dude with the white jazz, taking to the stage in his PJs - well laid back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rapscallion Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Its a shame, I really enjoy bass driven music (Primus, DFA1979, any funk/motown) but the "bass solo" is just embarassing. I've watched endless videos of Billy Sheehan, Stu Hamm (ultimately Stu Hamm doesn't perform "bass solo's", they're just rehashed attempts of everything he's done before), Wooten, and many others, who just get on stage and try and play as fast as possible whilst pulling stupid faces, for what? To impress the crowd? It makes me cringe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grassie Posted October 27, 2011 Author Share Posted October 27, 2011 I think the guy with the green-pointy-whammy-8string is particularly scary. I can't believe anyone would think this was good. Now, don't get me wrong, I love a bit of slap (even though I can't do it for love nor money), but there doesn't seem to be any merit in playing like that whatsoever. The tone of those two just grate. A cacophony of sh*te. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreek Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 I'm going to stick my head above the parapet here and wait to get it shot down..I enjoyed it..thought both players were solid in what they did, good tone from both basses and it gave the Bassist(s) a chance to shine and come to the front instead of the guitarists.. should I duck??

MoonBassAlpha Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 We used to call it "showing off" in the old days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapolpora Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 I liked it too. But bass distortion needs to be handled with care. I'd find it interesting to see how this featured in the context of the whole gig. I don't know a lot about Caseopia - but from what I've seen they are all great players.
