[quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1393407624' post='2379764'] simple as this, yup. [/quote] yup definitely this - you either like or you dont being a miserable old cynic i would go as far as saying im not even prepared to consider investing the time to learn in some circumstances- personallly i cannot stand just about most things that have the 'metal' or 'rap' label attached to it and personal experience tells me is not worth going there to even check it out 99% of the time so why waste the time - i think of it as musical investment versus time management your mileage may vary etc

never really got the ramones (although dont dislike them per se) but the 'being there' apsect is a major factor i believe i dont get over excited by srpingsteens latest material but i still recall with my tape recorder memory every single friggin bar in minute detail of the born to run album from when it was originally released in late 70s and the only reason i dont play my vinyl copy is because i dont have a working turntable at the moment although i dont consider myself a major springsteen fan i would still concede that he deserves his kudos just on the strength of that one album alone - may contain traces of nuts etc [media]http://youtu.be/Hwkt6L_vY-I[/media]

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1393201641' post='2377395'] No doubt about that. It's also an ungulate. [/quote] Llamas are dangerous so if you see one where people are swimming you shout: (Cuidado! Llamas!!) 'Look out there are Llamas!!'

nope cant see any bass uploads on that channel just a whole load of cornfed americana

coincidentally it also happened to be my favourite one to listen to

nice llama quadraped isn't it?

would it be wrong to say i voted for the one which had the most interesting and varied spectrum graphic?

[quote name='SpaceChick' timestamp='1392583007' post='2370384'] Thanks, but I have the dots..... I'm finding half the battle is deciding where best to play the notes for speedy movement! Lol! [/quote] there is no real left hand speed needed to speak of - as always there is more than one way to skin a cat and the doubled walking line in the verse can be played and varied in a couple of positions - if i get chance this morning i will throw up a quick tab of the position where my playing style find the flow of the pattern smoothest - the walking line during the verse is in 16 and pretty tight and straight but there are occasional points where it is punctuated at the start or end of the phrase with a small syncopated skip - try not to let the skip continue through into the next section of the phrase all the drive in this is totally with the right hand and dont forget the rising octaves in the chorus that the first lower note is a double hit hope this helps

chapman stick ?

nice style - lot of playing going on with minimal movement

quite a lot of extreme stuff is down a notch to E flat go for broke and do cupid's dead

[quote name='Absolute Beginner' timestamp='1392932634' post='2374518'] but I gather that can be frowned upon by the bass community ?! [/quote] just frown right back and pluck or pick away to your heart's content i shouldnt worry about it too much - it will mostly be keyboard warriors who should be practising their scales anyway

maybe they should have tried this sort of format... [url="http://youtu.be/dJTzTQgsS-4"]http://youtu.be/dJTzTQgsS-4[/url]

[quote name='deepalma' timestamp='1392907555' post='2374031'] Steve-bbb I really love the J basses, and I had a Fretless Jazz in the past. But I'm living in 45 sqm. With a guitar, soon 3 basses, and yesterday I ordered an RH750. My girlfriend will kill me, in reason, if I come home with another bass. [/quote] only if she finds out!

[quote name='flyfisher' timestamp='1392907767' post='2374034'] Give it a fair try and you may never buy a television licence ever again. [/quote] i dont anyway - we have over 75s in da house

[quote name='TimR' timestamp='1392905227' post='2373992'] I suspect half the floor is full of celebs on their best behaviour but trying to be edgy and the other half is full of their yes men. [/quote] and the only vaguely naughty thing being the two paddypower hired stooges in their green underpants? or were there others? shame that rock and roll cant even give us another jarvis cocker to pull a moon at one of the über famous attendees
