Yeah I've been trying to do that alot lately... been listening to Giant Steps alot and Maiden Voyage :cool:

haha thanks man I appreciate it :D

Hey everyone my name is Matt. I have been playing the bass for about 8 years now, and have been teaching myself theory and basic composition techniques. but there is a huge problem. I haven't really been improving at all for the past year... maybe it has something to do with the fact that I'm in...

here's a couple: shattered glass broken arrow brown shoes discern the disaster

OOh. gotta love Colin Edwin. Muse is quite good, as well

haha yeah man i've been going through a non-stop Rush obsession this past summer. i just can't get over how good they are!! :hyper:

Rush- Presto Rush- MOving Pictures Rush- Grace under Pressure

Rush- Grace under Pressure Rush- Snakes and arrows Rush- Moving Pictures

King Xanadu, i just wanted to point out how cool your profile name is. Rush is amazing. lol :bassist:

dude, you know, i don't really listen to metal that much anymore (i'm going through a Jazz/ Prog Rock phase), but your band is SOLID. you're timing is impeccable, and i love how your bass player is able to cut through the mix. GOOD WORK!!! :cool:
