The EBS Session 60? Gets rave reviews. http://www.bass.se/2009/session60.htm

[quote name='mercuryl' timestamp='1320081819' post='1422079'] I find it weird that you think three out of those four are weird choices. Still, no Peaches by the Stranglers in the top 20? Now that's weird. [/quote] Yeah - Peaches or Nice n Sleazy. I find the 'Bites the Dust' one weird as it is just a disco riff by a rock band. Billie Jean? What's special about that? Then again, it's personal opinion.

Not a bad shout - Delbertnot - you should listen to it, it's good. My choice would definitely be 'I Wish' by Stevie Wonder...........or 'The Dry Cleaner From Des Moines' by Joni Mitchell - live version........or 'Nice n Sleazy' or 'Tom Sawyer' or ....well it depends on my mood I suppose! Still: [b]1. Muse – 'Hysteria' 2. Rush – 'YYZ' 3. Queen – 'Another One Bites The Dust'* 4. Queen and David Bowie – 'Under Pressure'* 5. Pink Floyd – 'Money' 6. Metallica – 'Orion' 7. Michael Jackson – 'Billie Jean'* 8. Yes – 'Roundabout' 9. The Who – 'My Generation' 10. Tool – 'Schism'*[/b] * - ones I find weird!

Shakin yo ass?

Outstanding!

Good groove there and I love the fact he does not overplay.

[quote name='Dubs' timestamp='1319135310' post='1410476'] Played a gig with this band last week. During their set the lead singer climbed up on our guitarists Marshal stack (which was left behind their backline after our set), went to jump off but fell over kicking the head off at the same time - it hit the stage floor hard - he fell to the floor in a pathetic heap and they carried on with their set. At the end of their set they were chucking pints of water around on stage with exposed live sockets everywhere. They walked off stage so we went on to check the amp - luckily it was ok. They hid backstage for about 15 minutes then came out to get their guitars and walked off without saying a word. When confronted, the lead singer was kind of apologetic but seemed preoccupied tripping his nuts off on something. Their guitarist had more of a 'f*** you' attitude and said that the amp shouldn't have been on stage anyway... They're generally just a bunch of cnuts with little regard for other peoples gear. The promoters of the night have lodged a formal complaint with their national booking agent and have spread the word around here. Avoid. [/quote] Er....I'm waiting for the bit where you say you punched the skinny pricks lights out?

Could originally have been 7strings on here unless he didn't sell it a year ago.

[quote name='Slipperydick' timestamp='1319053655' post='1409458'] One of mine insisted on it ! [/quote] Hence the username?

I posted a YouTube of a one armed bassist recently. You're only 1 finger down. Stop bitchin and get pitchin!

"a fondness for derelicts" Great read. Joni's the best and her art extends to her description of Jaco.

[quote name='GarethFlatlands' timestamp='1319044828' post='1409310'] That's cool, my past 2 girlfriends wouldn't even tell their parents they were going out with me :-) [/quote] Mine refused to tell my wife!

He's a filthy boy who should wash his hands more often!

Great thread! Loving some of these planks!

No idea!

Too sensible a suggestion for the Pawn Shop Dreamers!

Personal opinion - text looks like MS Word Art. I'd simplify it but then again - at least you're doing something whereas I am sitting on my arse! Best of luck!

Great song start to finish. Seem to remember they often used the main part of the song in adverts to help sell the album. Ta for the vid above. Both Nicks and Bucks voices are on form in that. Raw, emotional and goddam sexy as hell!

[quote name='Dave Vader' timestamp='1318360083' post='1401180'] Really? Nobody's posted the Mothman yet? First in, for once....[/quote][quote name='Ben Jamin' timestamp='1318360684' post='1401200'] Good luck finding a gigbag for that![/quote] And one for the bass!
