Best way to buy - spontaneous, and on feel. Great work, happy NBD!

Billy Idol - Flesh for Fantasy, and Bowie - Sound & Vision (always wanted to play that line)

[quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1419262321' post='2638109'] I seem to find myself mildly in love with the blonde dancer during Get Lucky around 5:45. That is all, great sounding band though. Si [/quote] Whenever the set needs a lift, bring on the daisy dukes! Great band. And nice to see an appreciative crowd, you see so many showreels filmed in empty venues. It reminds me of those 'made for TV' gigs Gary Crowley used to host on C4.

Rich name and shame. Help any other BC'ers who might fall foul.

Very sad news RIP

[quote name='lowdown' timestamp='1419266281' post='2638154'] I think it might be this. During the solo Sadao Watanabe's face is pricelss. Top, top band as well. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qu7S8wRcRNU[/media] [/quote] Fantastic solo. And as you mentioned earlier - epic music stands. That one is like a windbreak

[quote name='deanoet' timestamp='1419265302' post='2638130'] Cant help you directly with that song But I tend to listen / watch some bass covers / lessons on youtube and see how they do it See how it sounds when they play it [/quote] Tabs only really work in conjunction with the recorded piece. Along with not showing rhythm, it's standard form that they will be occassionally wrong, so they're at best a guide to get you started. Tab sites are the worst. Even published tab books are only created by someone sat down trying their best to decipher what is played, there's no more science than that most of the time.

Someone with proper musical knowledge will be along shortly.

[quote name='BetaFunk' timestamp='1419199882' post='2637593'] No Funkapolitan fans out there then? [/quote] when people talk about 'white man funk', they're the benchmark. Actually not too far from a lot of current function bands.

Yeah looks overly reliced - must be limelight! Good move for them and for him when he joined. Earned them a touch more respect - a band member who is both technically brilliant, and has a higher credibility than the rest of them put together. And no one could argue that it wasn't nice to see a player like that hit the payday jackpot of joining the Metallica machine. Great to see him riffing around the original stuff like that.

If we're also talking about new stuff - Michael Christmas is worth checking. He deserves to break though this year. His last album is free (!) >> [url="http://www.audiomack.com/album/michael-christmas/is-this-art"]http://www.audiomack.com/album/michael-christmas/is-this-art[/url] Ace videos as well > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElHLgaXIZgg

Back to the OP - had a weird turn of fate the other week. Fairly well oiled in a tiny pub in Ramsgate, people dancing away to an extended version of The Message. Got talking to the DJ and turned out it was Skip McDonald ! He lives in the area and hosts a night there once a month. Naturally we then had a drunk (well I was drunk) conversation about Doug Wimbish. Pub is Queen Charlotte, Ramsgate. Any BC'ers ever in the area PM me and I'll join you for a pint.

Great bass, enjoy. Everyone I know who owns one swears by them. 'All the bass you'll ever need'

ha. Yeah YouTube ads in general, bloody annoying, esp when you get one of those 30 second ones you can't skip. If its something I need to watch a few times (usually learning a cover) I've taken to downloading the video thorugh eu.savefrom.net

Every days a schoolday on BC [color=#252525][font=sans-serif]'Wormworth has served as a touring bass player for [/font][/color][url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sting_(musician)"]Sting[/url][color=#252525][font=sans-serif] and [/font][/color][url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayne_Shorter"]Wayne Shorter[/url][color=#252525][font=sans-serif], Cyndi Lauper, Phyllis Hyman, jazz great Regina Carter, vocal phenom Rachelle Ferrell and Joan Osborne, as well as the B-52s.'

First step to becoming GAS-free would be leaving BC Hard to stop thinking about buying new stuff when you're surrounded by likeminded people selling stuff, talking about buying stuff, and showing what they've bought.

[quote name='blue' timestamp='1419048942' post='2636074'] Tip: If your doing a stage-less bar gig this weekend and you value your pedal board, cover it with saran wrap or something to cover it. I would hate to hear about a pitcher of beer being spilled on someones pedals. Blue [/quote] I thought it probably was - but for all us Limeys :- 'Saran Wrap' = cling film

[quote name='BetaFunk' timestamp='1419022518' post='2635869'] Hold on kids!!!!!!!!! The version in the op is NOT the original TV version. It is a version by the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra. [/quote] It's loads better! God bless you ma'am

Never noticed that before, great shout. Love that section from 1:10

I'm on my second (headphones pulled one way, Amplug the other, and the socket broke). 3 rhythms to play along to, you can adjust the tempo and volume mix. 3 FX - Boost, Clean and Compressor. Scant instructions so someone may be along to correct me. Audio In jack really useful for playing along with. Not the strongest build quality but good enough for the price.

Brilliant! what a paint job / scratchplate. Bootsy would be proud
