Twiggy Ramirez (RIP)

Don't worry asian fish, this is a sad time. I'm sure he's gone on to a better place. (In fact, I know for a fact he has!)

whoa whoa whoa


Twiggy died? when did this happen?

just speculation here; maybe cause he uses his real name (Jeordie White) now that he isnt in MM

Pretty much everything I love about being a bass player, as well as constant inspiration, can be distilled into these three players...

Actually, based on what I saw at the Grammys, he has taken to wearing a kilt onstage, maybe that's the case...

Yeah. Thanks. It's kinda funny: people idolize Macca, mostly for his work on Revolver and Sgt Pepper, and he usually cites Brian Wilson's playing on "Pet Sounds" for him changing his style to the more melodic bass he played on those albums. However, what Sir Paul may not know is that Carol Kaye played bass on all of that (but yes, Brian did write the parts for her to play and Lyle Ritz played upright on that stuff too.)

Actually, based on what I saw at the Grammys, he has taken to wearing a kilt onstage, maybe that's the case...

I don't know man - I don't really know ladies fashion, but I say; when the top matches the skirt and they're hooked together, then it's a dress. Look at the picture, it's a dress. But I guess when you are able to make love to a woman for ten to twelve hours strait, you don't need to prove your manhood with little things like wearing mens clothes. :ninja:

Who is the second bassist there?

Steve Harris playin' an acoustic...huh? :confused:

He does it quite often actually...usually for intros/outros of songs. 'Clansman' for example.

David Ellefson from Megadeth in the 2nd pic.

Just so everyone knows, I don't know what I did that was offensive, I'm trying to get that figured out right now, but I'm sorry.

P.S. For the record, those who thought I was insulting Mr. Ryan from Mudvayne, I wasn't. I was stating a fact about someone else which may have been taken as an insult, but I don't know if it's against the rules, I'm trying to get that figured out. Sorry for... whatever it is I'm suppose to be sorry about. :p

Well don't even get me started on London Calling as an album. I mean you have the title track, then rock-a-billy "Brand New Cadillac", "Jimmy Jazz", and... well, hell, all the songs have awesome bass parts. I mean, no reason for me to go tracj by track and preach the wonders of something that is so clearly a work of art ;)

I wonder if Progzilla is into prog?

I hate to say it, but as much as I used to like Sting, ever year he puts between him and The Police is another notch down he goes in my book. I guess it's just because I loved The Police so much and Sting just doesn't do songs like that anymore.

He is talented though. I can't take that away from him.

The question that comes to mind is "Did he wear the gloves while playing?"

I was thinking about wearing medical issued latex gloves for a show once..... for no real reason, it seemed like a good idea at the time (was drunk....). That's the same evening I learned that I was pretty allergic to latex. The gloves never made it long enough to get played with :p

Sorry, just rambling I guess.

Steve Swallow has become a firm favourite lately.

:D Peter Gabriel is an odd fellow to say the least

He bounced in a 20 foot tall clear bubble, rode one of those "lean and it moves" personal transport scooters, wore a suit of light bulbs, wore a helmet with a "fisheye lens" camera pointed at his face.... etc etc etc during last years tour.

very odd... yet entertaining ;)

Yeah....and look at Paul with the Jazz. He looks pretty short. Anyone know just how short Paul is?

I wonder how long he stayed in that pose till someone snapped a picture.

:D

Only one person mentioned this fellow:

Mr. Stefan Lessard of the DMB.

My other faves have been done already: Mingus, Wooten, Jaco, etc.

I wonder how long he stayed in that pose till someone snapped a picture.

Reminds me of those diarehea medicine commercials.
The person is having a good time and then "BAM", tragedy strikes.

Here's the man responsible for my Bass-whoring madness. Not many of you know who he is, he's the Bass player for one of the greatest bands in existence, the Japanese band known as L'arc en Ciel. His name is Tetsuya Ogawa, but he's better known as just "Tetsu".

The influence. :bassist:

Most of my favorites have been posted over and over again so I won't bother with those, but one guy who has influenced me alot lately and dosen't get the respect he deserves is Dave Pomeroy.

http://www.allstarguitarnight.com/pastShowLrgPhoto/davePomeroy.jpg

So this guy is from a band called "Rich Kids on Acid". Anyone heard of them?


Make that Rich Kids on LSD, great band.

HOW DARE YOU NOT HAVE A PIC OF BILLY YET!!!

http://www.longhairedmen.com/artistphotos/billy81.jpg

No doubt, my biggest inspiration, Doug Wimbish (along with the whole Living Colour Band). Living Color, the Muzz days, was the first CD that I listened to to learn bass lines.. When Wimbish took over, it just took it to a new level for me. Meeting Doug, although very briefly after a show, was a high point in my musical career.

I see AJ and Matt Garrison; got me on the DB guys. First dude looks familiar.

My guess:
Kim Stone
Matt Garrison
Anthony Jackson
Avishai Cohen (spelling?)
and I can't place the last one

Dan Berglund - Esbjorn Svenson Trio

http://www.nicholasgibson.com/photos/albums/wpw-20041205/IMG_1602.jpg

Geezer Buttler (The reason I play bass)
Justin Chancelor.
TONY LEVIN! (The reason why I like bass, before I even knew what bass was!)
Ryan Martini (He brought me faith back in bass for modern music)
And the guy from Dog Fashion Disco, I cannot remember his name for the life of me.

My guess:
Kim Stone
Matt Garrison
Anthony Jackson
Avishai Cohen (spelling?)
and I can't place the last one


I see AJ and Matt Garrison; got me on the DB guys. First dude looks familiar.

Very healthy attempts Chris and 'Bark,


Here y'all go:

(1.) Fima Ephron (Screaming Headless Torsos, Lost Tribe, Hasidic NewWave, MeShell)


(2.) Matt Garrison (Zawinul Synd., John McLaughlin, Herbie Hancock, Steve Coleman)


(3.) Anthony Jackson (everyone d@mmit!)


(4.) Avishai Cohen (Soloist, Chick Corea, International Vamp Band, Bob Moses)


(5.) Bruce Gertz (BG 5et, John Abercrombie, Mick Goodrick, Con Brio, Jazz Educator from Berklee)

I can't believe nobody has posted Christian McBride yet. He is my absolute favorite . . . on upright, and electric. I'm going to post a picture of his on electric just to tick off the DB guys!

I have to say that is one of the sickest bassists around as well... I saw him with the Pat Methany Trio (w/Antonio Sanchez on drums) last year... That Pensa really sounds great as well.

I'm seriously bummed not to be able to catch any more of your shows ( or a lot of these other ERB folks for that matter ). We need more of you wacky cajuns to take road trips up into yank land. However, it would be tempting to hop a plane and come down and see that show if the two of you would swap instruments for a song or 2... :D

BTW, Glad to hear you're playing N.O. Jazz Fest. I'll have to let my Uncle-in-law and Mother-in-law to check you out.
