I get sick of going to my job and doing the same dookie over and over too. But I suck it up because that’s what I’m paid to do. Bands that won’t play their hits love the smell of their own farts.

A few off the top of my head… The Jam - A Town Called Malice Ian Dury and the Blockheads - Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick Rezillos - It Gets Me House Guests - My Mind Set Me Free Blue Oyster Cult - Burning For You The Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Someday I Suppose The Barney Miller theme

I also have zero need to another bass but if I happened across a Kawai FIIB I would probably empty my pockets for it.

I’m also a big fan of Dennis’ work in the Alice Cooper band. He wrote some great bass lines.

Not a full album, but I recorded a tribute track to my nephew many years ago with just bass, drums, and vocals. There’s a local sludge metal band called Akris that was a two piece of just bass and drums. Seems like their stuff is only available on Spotify though.

I had a Magnum l for quite a few years. Sold it last summer. I still have a bit of regret about it.

My Mustang is fairly light (not sure if that’s common or I got lucky). My Bronco not so much.

If you think big names like Steve Harris or Geezer Butler that are known worldwide and have had tons of accolades can be considered “underrated” I don’t know what can be said to explain it to you.

A lot of people in this thread don’t know what underrated means.

I had a ‘72 and a ‘74 that I played throughout the 90’s. Eventually sold both of them for some dumb reason. I got the mudbucker itch again and picked up an Epiphone EBO on marketplace for cheap. Put an Hipshot Supertone on it and loaded it with a $40 Artec mudbucker that reads 31k. I don’t use...

A mudbucker through a Marshall is an incredible sound.

Glen Matlock - Sex Pistols Paul Dean - X Ray Spex

They charge those prices because people will complain but still pay those prices. I’m not one of those people. I’ve seen hundreds of shows in my lifetime, so I don’t feel as if I’m missing out if I skip them now. No concert is worth hundreds of dollars to me.
