I'm seeing Tom McGuire and The Brassholes on Sunday at the Hug and Pint venue in Glasgow. Should be another blisteringly good gig!

As Lozz says, the Fender "Original" series of pickups have a definite mid "push" that I found pretty unpleasant to my ears. I've been using Fender "Pure Vintage" Jazz and P-Bass pickups for my recent basses, and they sound fantastic. I've also used the Custom Shop units, which are really nice also.

I depped on a covers gig a couple of weeks ago. A lot of the same tracks that have been listed on this thread. I was given a prospective setlist a couple of days prior to playing. On the night, however, there were a few tracks thrown in without any prior knowledge! (Barry White's "the first, the last, my everything", Queen's "Crazy Little Thing", etc.) I had to try and remember how they went. Thankfully, I got through it, but it was pretty unnerving. I was offered a place as the regular bassist if I wanted it, so all was well.

This thread has made me look out this 3 CD album for another listen.

My favourite is definitely "Exit Stage Left" (even though it is one of the muddiest sounding live albums ever). Favourite studio album for me is Power Windows - love it!

Winner, winner, chicken dinner!!

Ain't No Doubt - Jimmy Nail

WaterofTyne - clue required mate.

Nope, still stumped here!

Surely someone will recognise this one??

Nope, it was supposed to be this track: Level 42 - True Believers

Any further guesses on this one? All confirmed thiests considered.

Nope - it's a line from a group most associated with slap bass.

Another Sunday run through

Nope, not Ben E King. Female vocalist (with three guys as the rest of the band, or maybe they were just impersonating a band??)

An easy one to get things back on track

I can't recall a song called, "Prosecco and Chocolate"???

Jimothey - clue required mate.

Almost - it was Hall & Oates' "Maneater"

Okay time to inflict more low end nonsense upon an unsuspecting audience.

Ezbass - is it Pump It Up by Elvis Costello?

That's no fun matey

Yes indeedy! Here's yet another example of my low end nonsense

As you might guess, I'm bored and stuck at home today - here's another time filler until Jimothey appears again.
