    Strange New Band, how does one deal with culture shock?

    The management team, they're aloof with the drummer and I about things things so most of the information that we get comes from our guitarist and singer. We haven't committed to a producer as of yet but I don't think that will be a big problem when we do

    "Real bass players use their fingers"

    Geezer Butler. + or -?

    the thing with 'Ol Geezer is that he plays a self taught style, so theres a lot of fifths,thirds, and pedaling in his playing. personally i like it and i think his playing was amazing. although he's no John Paul Jones.
