after years i finally dug out my old cake albums(motercade of generosity and fashion nugget) and put them in my cd player. wow, i still love this guy. he was prob. my first inspiration to play bass. what a hero in my book. what do you guys think of him? oh, and cake is supposed to be releasing a new album this summer with gabe nelson playing bass. gabe is awesome on prolonging. i think cake is an amazing band. they're kind of like primus on barbiturates. anyways, laterdays |

He's got a really good tone, in my opinion. If I could get anyone's it would probably be that guy's. |

It's hard to describe them, but they're just a quirky kind of rock band, I guess. Funny stuff usually. They're one of those hard to define bands. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Sep 2000 Location: North of Chicago | | | i would have to compare them ith ween or something. they are funny like that. like i said previously, primus on barbiturates. umm..their sound is kinda countryish, but it's not. the bass is like a real low tone and dull, but awesome. interresting stuff definately. thier first big hit was 'how do you afford your "rock'n'roll lifestyle" ' . but thier second cd "fashion nugget" is the one i'd recommend to everyone. later days, ryan | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
