Just learnt Master Blaster. Played it live for the first time at Saturday's gig. The dep drummer did it at breakneck speed and I just laughed hysterically all the way through. [i]Almost[/i] nailed it!

Also I Want You Back, which is great fun.

Me as well and I'm happy with it (from little acorns as it were :) )

We play this every gig and I love it :)


Last one for me was No Doubt's Don't Speak which isn't as difficult as I thought it was the first time I listened to it.

the seeker by the who

are you gonna go my way by lenny kravitz,
however as we only have one guitarist i play the main riff with some distortion so that it fills the song nicely, so in actual fact i aint really playing the bassline at all hahahaha, owell

"L.A. Song" from the Angel TV show series - although there's about three chords in the whole thing so it wasn't tricky. Awesome song though, and suited my rather bleak mood last night.

Can't remember the last line I had to learn...

I normally just take the jist of it and make it fit.
I am never looking to rip a part off anyway.. and don't expect the rest of the guys to do that either..

Well I did a set for a wedding yesterday and we pretty much learned the tunes on the day, so I think the last one was for Beating Heart Baby by Head Automatica.

I don't generally learn basslines note for note, but last decided to learn a couple of classics:

Green Flower Street and Ruby Baby, both by Donald Fagen from "Nightfly". I think it's 'cos I was watching Steely Dan on Youtube!
