Funk only forum???

Sign in to disble this ad
Man, ever since I signed onto TB all I ever hear is "Funk this, Jazz that, Fusion the other" Aren't there ANY metalhead Bass guitarists (like me) who get their kicks from Iron Maiden, Rhapsody, Dream Theatre, Manowar ect ect. Don't get me wrong, I have the greatest respect for all types of music, but I CAN'T be the only metal bass guitarist on TB, just please, someone, anyone, mention Heavy metal for once.

Trust me their are plenty of metal heads on this forum. I bet Cliff Burton is mentioned here atleast 10 times a day, and Steve Harris atleast 5 times a day.

metal

a lot of metal guys on here! i dig it all if it's good!!
i used too be a metal head myself but always dug funk and jazz.
playing funk on the bass is just so fun and can really get you going when your gettin' down on it.
jazz to me just seems like the ultimate in bass playing.

I enjoy *most* forms of music myself, but I'm a card-carrying metal head. Gotta go with what I grew up on. Check my link.

Ok... get your exstinguishers ready! We are serious musicians here and because of this there is no room for metal talk. Now let the games begin!
