  1. That might do it.
  2. Could someone help me out with some standard notation sheet music for a Sabbath song? I have an idea for a tattoo, it's all very artistic and the music will be creating a texture in the background but it has to be something important to me as well so either NIB, Supernaut or Sabbath Bloody Sabbath would be absolutely ideal. Ta in advance.

  8. Surely the most punk bass would be something like a hollowbody Epiphone just because it's not the typical punk bass.

  19. I once saw legendary stoner metal band Kyuss live. Obviously all the band were high but drummer Brant Bjork had clearly had a lot of hallucinogenic and was out of his tree. He was definitely seeing something strange. He didn't miss a beat though. Absolutely solid for the whole show. At the end, he just sat there while the band left the stage, a tech had to come back on and get him.
  20. Champs Elysees - NOFX
  21. I wish I hadn't watched that video. Scotts bass lessons adverts everywhere I look now. I cannot escape the irritating gurning face and terrible jazz noodling
  22. I'm impressed that Scott Devine found another presenter just as irritating as he is.
  23. Yeah, I've given up playing for now. I found being in a band stressful and then after that I got bored playing at home.
  24. Remember it's far more important to keep the timing tight than to play every note in the original song. To start with, keep it simple but tight with the drummer. Consider leaving out fills etc while you work on learning to follow the drums. Playing in a band isn't for everyone, it wasn't for me. You need to be totally committed. You can't skip practice to do something else and you have to make yourself available for gigs. Everyone in the band relies on everyone else being there. Get some decent earplugs, you'll spend a lot of time very close to a drum kit and something to take the edge off will make it much more comfortable. Final tip. Forget about YOUR tone. You need a tone which cuts through the mix and compliments it. My bass tone with a metal band was really horrible in isolation but what you'd hear with the guitar sounded perfect.
