I was at junior school with a girl called Elizabeth Clegg who was a little on the er... chubby side. I thought it would be funny to tell her that she should form a rock band and call it Fat Cleggy (rather than Thin Lizzy).
She kicked me in the nuts.

I learnt a valuable lesson that day.

Unless I'm missing something here.....

'Black Rose' is my favourite Lizzy album. All great songs, some nice funky playing (in a Lynot style) on 'S & M'

Except it wasn't live...

I've just been watching the L&D show on Sky Arts (for about the 3rd time this year!).

However this time I dragged out a bass and a pick and had great fun playing along with some of the songs.

I'd forgotten how much fun playing with a pick can be!

Still love Phil & the L&D album in particular, doesn't bother me one bit that there were a lot of overdubs after the event

Thin Lizzy...the reason I started playing. Phil; Legend. 'Nuff said.

Hope you will be using a P bass & pick for that authentic Lynott sound

Streamer Stage I rolled onto the P pup... or I might just upset everyone and use my Bolin (which joking aside actually does a very convincing P bass sound).

<edit>

...and yes I am using a nice heavy pick!

Don't Believe a Word is my favourite to play - shame the fast version is so short though

We are doing the extended remix Gary Moore version with s. l. o. w. intro, which extends it to nearly 7 minutes.

That's my favourite version!

Although obviously having Phil on vox improves it (not quite as long though!)

I love it when PL goes to start singing the next verse half way through GM's solo (1.25ish).

Good spot, I hadn't noticed that!

Did you see Gary Moore has a broken string?

I did just spot that at the end the 2nd time I just played it through and was about to comment. Was it the heavy E string? If it was then it is just as well he didn't have some fancy Floyd Rose floating trem jobbie guitar, otherwise his whole solo would have required a bit more work to keep it in tune.

[josh3184]

he does well enough without it!
