hairyhaw Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 [quote name='Clarky' timestamp='1330449122' post='1557710'] Hey all, looks like the low end of the Stone Roses is now a BC'er (see profile below and his first posts) [url="http://basschat.co.uk/user/22598-maniscream/"]http://basschat.co.u...598-maniscream/[/url] If you are reading this Mani, great to have you on board and love the bass playing, esp on The Second Coming. Class! [/quote] Nice. It was just last night that I was fumbling (more bumbling) through his bass part whilst trying to sing "the messiah is my sister" at the same time.

Musky Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 [quote name='Oopsdabassist' timestamp='1330454057' post='1557822'] He is? Does he post much? [/quote] Not much. Anyone remember when the hitherto anonymous Steve Albini revealed he was the owner of Electrical Audio studios on a poker forum? I'd imagine fanboys are still posting on that thread now.

Gust0o Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 [quote name='skankdelvar' timestamp='1330457376' post='1557884'] In any event, simple courtesy demands we should treat him with the respect we'd show any new member and interact as we would with anyone else here. [/quote] Absolutely. And for everyone else, what kind of frigging stalking do you call this? f***ing amateur hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[size=1](As long as it's not a huge wind-up). [/size] [/quote] Too true. I've always thought it a shame that name players don't feel more comfortable being members on here. But we have had a few episode's where individuals have been responsible for being down right rude to these people, so they have not posted any more. So guy's, show ANY member the respect they deserve, no matter who they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be somewhat trying. Then again, Mr Mounfield has worked with Ian Brown and Bobby Gillespie in their full pomp, so one would imagine he doesn't scare [i]too[/i] easily.

skej21 Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Hopefully he'll see the 'Blur' (@ the Brits) thread and let Albarn read it and sort that mess out! P.s. Great to have another iconic bass player joining the ranks... Prepare for a scrabble when he starts posting in the 'for sale' section!

That's why I don't go there any more. I got ped to remove my access to it Then I went to Happy Jack's on Saturday and came away wanting a Barefaced Midget, a Crown power amp, a Thumpinator, and a 5 string Wal.

Hobbayne Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I dont mind Guigsy as a bass player, he played what was needed on all Oasis tracks. If I was asked to come up with what Noel wanted, I would have played the same thing he played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louisthebass Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 [quote name='silddx' timestamp='1330455960' post='1557848'] Do you think so? It would be lovely if he contributes and takes part in the manner of a bassist rather than a celebrity bassist, I'm sure that will be the case. I hope some members don't get too star-struck and bombard him with loads of questions I would rather like him to contribute to the What's Wrong With Modern Bassists thread [/quote] I've seen him on a few episodes of Soccer AM on Sky and he's got a great sense of humour (I also think he's the sort of fella who doesn't suffer fools easily ).

[/quote] Tony McCarroll says in his book that Guigsy didn't write or play anything on Definitely Maybe, and that Noel played bass. I'm not sure if I believe that or not, the book does seem quite honest though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTUK Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I have to go with the fawning/stalker thing here.

[/quote] I've been fawning over JT for a week now, and I am in total agreement If this were Talkbass we could start a Star struck club. With me as #1, obviously, it's my club. That kind o' ting seems important on TB, which is also a chest condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
