Macca on X Factor

[Rich]

The tone he gets from that old violin bass is almost enough to make me want to breathe some life back into my old Höfner Artist bass. What a great sound. It can't all be down to the Mesa rig.

He was arguing about why such an amazing music icon should be on such a show that idolises karaoke and non-originality (his words not mine) when a young girl he obviously knows suddenly wrote:

[i]"Karaoke? Well Macca is no better. He got up and sang a Guns 'N' Roses song".[/i]

At first I thought it was sarcasm, until I read her responses when people tried to correct her.

was more meaning somebody else was doing the bass parts while he mimed, cant remember which track it was but the bass line changed to the next note his left hand stayed still, i could have just smoked far to much crack that night and imagined it tho

+1! i was suprised how good they all sounded. Loved the music, didn't really like the singing. Complete opposite of all the contestants, eh?
