bluesparky Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 lump - presidents of united states of america. Just a good fun tune, from a good fun band. I'm off to see them AGAIN in April at the forum. Can't wait, you'll never have as much fun at a gig than at a PUSA gig! Quote
Starvolt Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Feeling Good (Muse version) great tune! Quote

Hot Tub Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) Just mastered "Safety Dance". It's a silly little song, but everyone likes it and it makes Hot Tub happy. Tomorrow night's project is Status Quo's "Burning Bridges". Working on a wee bassline for Rufus Wainwright's piano/vocal version of "Hallelujah". Ralph McTell's "Streets Of London" is causing me some problems at the moment (along the lines of: Bass guitar--->bedroom window--->pavement :wacko: ). And don't get me started on the Blackmore's Night version of "Greensleeves"! Note to self: Must do "Uncle Tom's Cabin" by Warrant. Mrs HT loves it. Edited January 20, 2009 by Hot Tub Quote

You spend hours listening and re-listening to songs only for the others to either not bother learning them, or worst still, change their minds and suggest other songs for learning... Yeh...i'v been their!!![/quote] Glad read this. I thought it was just me! Drives you bl00dy mad sometimes. I'm currently learning Lovecats, The Cure on my new upright bass. Not that we'll ever do it in the band, but hey. I like the tune and it's quite a challenge. Quote

gary mac Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 Last night for some reason i had the bass line from Ramble On (led zepp), stuck in my head. So I've spent a couple of hours this afternoon working on it. An enjoyable time on what has otherwise been a very miserable day. Quote
