Happy Jack Posted July 13, 2018 Author Share Posted July 13, 2018 That a Status Streamline 5, going through a Valeton Dapper boost pedal to get that cheap synth-bass sound. In truth, it sounds OK on the YouTube but was absolutely righteous on the night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpondonBassed Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Cheers. I just saw the headless neck. From that angle it looked like you were tight for space and my mind could only fit a paddle into that image. "cheap synth-bass sound" - hahahahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have now played Le Freak and Blame It On The Boogie, Dancing Queen and Waterloo, even Uptown Funk, and I was gutted when we ran out of time before I could play Disco Inferno. Never played ANY of those songs before in front of an audience. Years of pop/rock and blues/rock and Dadrock but never disco. Don't know where you all rate that lot for coolness or otherwise, but some bloody good fun to be had! Just thought you'd like to know. 😁 I’d love a gig like that. It gets boring sometimes, playing 8th note roots for 80% of the set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamg67 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 My tastes for listening lean heavily towards rock, but I do a bit of Le Freak pretty much every time I pick up the bass at the moment. Love that bass line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staggering on Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Speaking of disco, we had a singalong version of Mama Mia on TV here in North America last night with the words going by at the bottom of the screen.I knew they had done this with the Sound of Music at live performances and in cinemas and on TV but the Mama Mia singalong was new to me. Is it making the rounds in other parts of the BC world? ...I didn't watch much of it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
