tonybassplayer Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Once a month we head off to the local cafe/bistro to the "Artists Hangout" that features local singers, poets, painters, etc and as its the first birthday party at the end of July the guy who runs it asked me to do something to cover a twenty minute slot and I have come up with the idea of a little bit of promotion for our favoured instrument. I am going run a little competition to guess the song and artist by playing about 20 popular song intros etc that feature bass I am thinking down the lines of Billie Jean, Another One Bites The Bust etc but need some more ideas guys Any thoughts ??

paul_5 Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 (edited) 'Be my girl' by Jet (I think), 'Live Wire' by AC/DC if you want something bit less obvious, RHCPs 'Higher ground', 'Come together' By the Beatles, 'Hysteria' by Muse, 'Eton Rifles' by the aforementioned Jam Just a minute, I'll have a proper think...
