joegarcia Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 [quote name='BassBalls' post='480586' date='May 6 2009, 12:46 AM']My God i hope you didn't actually have a monitor! Im very surprised your even miced up! I also like the choice of cone to mic up on the right! I normally go for the bottom one so it dont get knocked over.[/quote] That would be my doing and my amp as it happens. That gig was massively rushed and running extremely late. The house engineer only had a tall stand for it and nobody was going anywhere near the amp on stage so it didn't matter. Only ended putting it on during quiet sections in the end as the PA was puny and the amp was crazy loud.

I always hate that rush just before doors open and your still sound checking. Crazy things do happen. I also think you have this competition in the bag mate. I have only seen drummers with that expression on their face and they are strange people.

TPJ Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 I'm going to regret this first picture but here goes.... "Feelin' it (looks more like Fillin' it)" "Groove from above"

alexclaber Posted May 8, 2009 Author Posted May 8, 2009 Mrs Barefaced has brought up the important point that a true bassface has to be sustained pout/grimace/grin, not merely a passing snapshot a la Heat's 'look how ugly/fat/chavvy celeb x looks today' photos. Larry Graham is a fine demonstrator: 34 seconds in. Now that is a funkface. Alex

Instead of one of those stupid "Congratulations - you've been entered for a rubbish competition and won" letters arriving through Larry Graham's letter box, he could get a massive cab smashing through his front door instead. [i]People ask me everywhere How I lost all my hair[/i]... Barefaced cabs - bald cheek!

Machines Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 I'm no good with slogans so i'll have to pass on that part !
johnnylager Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 (edited) Do you always go on stage with 3 life size cardboard cut-outs? I wouldn't trust that gadgey on the right. [quote name='Machines' post='490669' date='May 17 2009, 05:12 PM'][/quote] Edited May 19, 2009 by johnnylager

spacecowboy Posted June 10, 2009 Posted June 10, 2009 My Entry? Lost in the moment, sucking my lip hoping my slide up the neck actually lands on E. The only ironic thing about this photo other than my white glasses is the fact me and the guitarist are facing our drummer and not the crowd and neither of us realised! doh! completely lost.
MoonBassAlpha Posted June 10, 2009 Posted June 10, 2009 In this pic, I had worn out my facial muscles gurning to the camera while the flash took an age to charge. By the time the pic was taken I was all gurned out and just look tired and about to be sick (and not in the good modern usage) [attachment=26831:Gurn.JPG]
