    Overrated bass players

    I know I'm about to get smashed, but I like Flea, Claypool, and I respect Fieldy. Have you ever tried to tremolo slap? I mean, his tone sounds like my balls flapping in the wind, but if he can slap with both his thumb and his pinky tremolo style, he deserves props. He does things his way. I also...

    I play about half slap, half fingerstyle. Theres a place for everything if you make it. And on "not playing the technique until mastered", why play it then? the fun part is learning

    Songs with odd time signatures

    Our display names are essentially the same. I thought that was funny. Im a big Rush guy, so I like Limelight. And I have a riff I working on in 13/8 or 13/4 depending on the rest of the song. I think thats pretty cool.

    Jeff Berlin overdubs himself on Norah Jones recordings?

    Im not gonna lie, that was some of the worst sounding overdubbing ive ever heard. IMO 1.He's nowhere near good enough to be as arrogant as he is 2.You cant just debo someone's song and record over it (Killing the original song by the way) and then put it on myspace. 3.It sounds like an...

    Cliff Burton Hype

    Too bad his tone is somehow even worse than cliff's. I liked his infectious grooves stuff though.
