Is it just me or were there an awful lot of pessimism in the Bass Player 20th Anniversary Mag? Keeping in mind that these are legendary players, there was an awful lot of doom and gloom.
... although Watt and Sheehan seemed pretty pumped!
No disrespect to those interviewed, but sheesh... |

IMO/IME/YMMV/go ahead and make that bass sound like a nasal trombone and play a TON of 32nd notes!!!  |

The tone is just cringe worthy...
