Just bought myself a Victor Bailey Fender Jazz this weekend and I've been busy playing it at home with drumloops to give me some rhytm..Bit of noodling around on a reggae-feel while trying to keep the timing as tight as possible...

Very Clever! But reggae??! Why do you think what you did has anything in common with reggae?

Not a challenge, I know how good you are, just interested.

That's nice Mike, very airy, some mad sounds! I like the tricky key modulation too. Very nicely done, your timing and groove has changed a bit mate, might just be me perhaps but I feel there's a definite improvement in your phrasing and timing.

Thanks Nige - I have been shedding a fair bit over the last few months and even doing some transcribing, some groove-based gigs etc - it's all had some effect on how I'm playing right now, but I've definitely been focusing on my timing/groove more - thanks for the comments, glad the mad sounds work OK!

See you soon I hope

Mike

Thanks for the compliment... well reggae, hmmm... perhaps it has more to do with the hi-hat on the 2 and 4 than with the bass.
I'll just call it fusion :)

and a really long one, with us improvising a lot to stretch out the set (DJ had a heart attack on the day and couldn't come)

T40 all the way! :)

After watching a few of these videos, I feel entirely inferior and that I'm going to be laughed at for my awful playing, but... I had a hell of a lot of fun at this gig, and that's what counts, right? Right? ;-;

Also, when we hit the big intro loud thing, I think the nerves were getting to me a bit. Got a bit over-enthusiastic and caused the E string to skip off the nut. Took me a few seconds to realise. Hell of a start. Some pretty seriously suspicious playing in the second song too actually. >.>

Also this!

Still waiting for my singer to upload the rest, but I think on the whole they're pretty cool. :3

And another. No more tears this time. And no. I never mastered the funny timing thing. I sorta never really tried that hard tbh. It messed with my simple little mind.
