redzombie Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Guns n' Roses - You Could Be Mine. Not exactly learnt, more like never played it before, but have been listening to the song for years so I just picked it up on the fly. Sort of like confirming what I'd usually have going on in my head when listening to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamWoodBass Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Teen Town, got it to a decent standard yesterday, just trying to build up speed in the solo at the end. 2 years of working on it, getting bored and frustrated with it and picking it up again a few days later. Worked it all out by ear though which I'm pretty chuffed about, didn't want to use a tab and couldn't find the sheet music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xilddx Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Halfway through Dupree's Paradise (Zappa), sounding pretty good so far. But I'll never learn Scott Thunes' weird improvisation part, it's so random. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PURPOLARIS Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Ok, my band has decided to do Get On Your Boots by U2 so that's the latest one I've done. I've also been learning a lot of Rammstein songs for the Tribute band I'm in. Going to tackle Seeman next. Very melodic bass line in that one.

Scoop Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 (edited) In order to do a depping gig on Saturday I had to learn Whitesnake's Blindman and Fleetwood Mac (Peter Green Era)'s Need Your Love So Bad, neither of which I'd ever touched before. Also been working, purely for fun, on Tom Petty's American Girl and Pink Floyd's Dogs. Edited March 9, 2009 by Scoop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balcro Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 (edited) Signed, sealed, delivered, - Stevie Wonder. It's taken weeks. I now need to get the hips and knees in with the groove. Before that "Sweet Home Alabama". Much easier, but they've both brought a smile to my face. Balcro Edited March 17, 2009 by Balcro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
