A helpful favor?

[bellis1]

So, i've just joined a cover band. Our first show is next Saturday, and they've already asked me to step up front for a "solo" ish. Not exactly a solo in my books, as I'm supposed to play a bass line of someone elses. However, I'm not very good at playing by ear.

To my point: I have to learn a 2 bar riff, that I cannot figure out. I was going to see if ANYONE had the time to possibly tab/make a video to show me how to play it. I know its a big favor, but maybe someone out there will do it. For you guys that have been playing for 10+ years, it should be a very simple thing.

Heres the riff: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUElqcOupAc

STARTS AT 2:05!!!!!!!

Fingers crossed

At 2:05 it looks like a chromatic root run down the neck. Where are they in the progression when your "riff" will begin? Walk a chromatic root run down to the next chord. That's what it looks like to me.

Good luck.

This should work:



The 16th-note triplet on the first ending sounds really like a simple downward glissando starting on the high A (similar to the second ending), but playing it as notated sounds cooler (if done correctly). Hope this helps.
