Now "A" is say'in "Shoulda talked to ya'l about this before we agreed on Newyears gig". I say "you think"? Never will understand why people wont comunicate.

+1 agree on that. I played alot of years in a core band. None of us were great, but we all worked at the same goals. To gig, make money, and have fun. We played out 60-70 dates a year, never argued, no one ever missed a practice, or a gig for that matter. Greatest band Id ever been in. The new...

No, I aint gonna say. They have been good to us. And the band prior to this one too. Weve done Newyears at this place several years.

He agreed to the gig. Wanted us to switch. The place he wanted to switch gigs with was WAAAAAY worse.

He was pretty bad to deal with. And to believe I almost didnt use a sub and go forth Newyears. Well now we still have an everymonth return gig at "rathole" and really the place aint that bad. Band I was in for 5 years prior to this one, played at "rathole" 4 years , and never had a problem with...

Lol . Actually been busy giging, and hadnt had a need to post. Wish I didnt need to post this, but I guess thats good in a way, shows hadnt had many band problems to worry with.

Our Lead guitar player, who Ill call "A", informed our lead singer, that "A" was leaving the band. Ill give a little background information on the matter. "A" is a great player, puts on really good show and generaly easy to work with. But sometimes we would text or...

Ive been In a similar situation before. Hated practice, even giging with these guys was no fun. I felt , though, that as long as we were giging out, that I would stick it out. I was talking to a friend who's in a very good band in the area, and he asked one day, "do you enjoy the people...

Yep .. he says its a parts bass.

I think it gives a description of what it is.. Parts bass..mim neck.

Oh no.. "blocked"? Id'a had fun with this for days...lol

A set killer is pretty much decided on the mood of the crowd.. What works tonight, or an hour ago depends on reading the crowd. A great song works when the timing is right. Timing is everthing.. Loose touch with your crowd.. kill the set. Ive seen weird, or songs no one would give a chance...

I run our sound from on stage.. I walk out a couple times.. and take a listen. Never been a problem. Some one mentioned about it looking more professional with a sound man.. How unprofessional will it look if he"s the bass playing soundman from the back? Thats just creepy.. Will the venue...

Yea the big inch motors in SS' Camaros and all were. But..since this has turned into more of "Tb's interesting car thread" instead of sticking with muscle cars, post it anyway. Heck Im guilty myself, as I posted my 10 sec. Gran National.. By one definition posted.. its too new.. but yet Im a...

Thats me too. +1

2008 Precision Fender American Standard.

Yea.. the 65 G.T.O. is my favorite.. never could find one back in the day. Now they're really expensive. 70 Chevelle, is my # 2 favorite. Missed out on one in the 70's I should have bought. When the Gran national's came out, my dad drove one and said, "take that thing for a spin", it'll fly...

87 Buick Gran National. Best E.T of 10.12@ 131mph 1-4 mile. I.H.R.A and N.H.R.A certified..Stock Eliminator ..competitor

Yea!!! One of the greatest muscle cars made! Could have bought one from a friend, in 79.. 1970 -SS-454-LS-6..4speed. I passed on it.. BIG mistake!

Pretty much covers it.. But My 87 GranNational Buick Regal, is listed in the National Muscle Car Association, as a legitimate muscle car. And has competed in several of they're events. Including a 3 rd place finish in head to head runoffs in the Bigblock category. ( Classified as Bigblock, as...

Some one allready mentioned the fact that most major acts, do play covers, not to mention remakes are covers too. So no need to look forward to someone who plays covers "showing you something" with original music.. its been done. Turn on the radio.

True definition?..... A Pony dar is the smaller of the offerings detroit produced.. aka Mustang Camaro. Athough also avalible with the larger more powerful engines, which often made these faster than theyre larger cousins, they are classified as pony cars. Muscle cars, were based on the...

You my man need to become a Bass dealer!! You can shop and warehouse all the basses you like. All types. With your knowledge of the actual instruments themselves, you'd be a natural. But you'd have to sell your house to finance the business for now..ouch! Or you could go to work at...

But Nascar is about racing...:hmm:

What is the age group you are targeting? 20-30 year olds? If thats is representative of the club, bar seen then you are o.k with that demo. I ask because I didnt hear a variety, of songs. Same time period , same genre. Getting people to shows means attracting females! Lots a women in the...

I can understand Johns position on this subject. The (Icall it progressive) type of music Johns playing is a good example of a style and sound where a P bass dont get it done. Not just the extended range aspect, but the sound he needs, in an upfront almost soloist melodic style, ( that most of...

A p bass and a jazz all have ther places. That being said a jazz will never (replace) sound like a p. This " I solo my neck pickup" wont make you have the full rich tone.It makes a jazz fuller than with both pickups on, but thats not the nasty growl a jazz is for. Some settings a jazz sounds...

News flash for most of you..THEY DONT SOUND THE SAME! not even close. Granted I play a Squier, alot I love it, has a better set up than most MIM's. I found out something Id forgotten about, American fenders sound better. Id played a Geddylee, and a Squier for a couple years in a band. Last...

If thats it in the photo.. I see you were'nt confortable playing out with it untill you changed the headstock logo. :hmm: Nothing wrong with that .. just say'in..no one else knows its cheap but you.. heack put s'x ' logo back on and be proud.

You need it!!! Buy it!!

Yea those Jazz bass necks are like baseball bats:rollno: But despite all the misinformation.. that Ric is a good deal..

N.C.A.A. Championship.

I played 2 of the 70's mim's..at gc for about an hour. Both could use a set up, but they were passable as players.. Although nether were in the ballpark of the Geddylee. Ive played one for a year now, evey weekend. Great sound, super fast neck, with thin profile. The 70's have differant profile...

Yea those G&L's are great. Chrome steels should wake that thing up. Strings were a concern of mine, Ive never liked Fender strings. But I can live with these, they must be fresh. I walked into G.C., and saw this one marked $1009. I couldnt pass it up. If you change pups, post about it...

And gig it I did. Played the Jazz the first set, and the precision the other 2 sets. I didnt plan on playing it that much. But I couldnt stop, even with it toned out for good clarity, it has this heavy massive sound! Fender did good on these.

Yep thats the look. Ill gig it tonight, alternate sets with it and the Geddy Lee. In fact I think Ill go over our set list and find the songs more suited to the P-bass tone. And use it on them.. Use the J on songs its suited for it. Since we change setlist every week, I wont know what those...

James Dewar... with Robin Trower... Great vocals too.. RIP..James.

Johnny Winter.. may have been mentioned allready.. if not..Johnny Winter. I can listen to him all day. Never seems to run out of riffs. King of the "Heres a 9 min song, and its all one big guitar solo", jams. Anyone mention Johnny Lang? Gary Moore, Alex Lifeson, and an odd one with...

(Their sansamp my rig) sounds like you have FOH, provided, and a FOH engineer. He'll know how to run it. You can run it passive out to your rig, and it wont color your backline at all. Or it has a output to give your amp the tone enhancing sound. But more importantly, you'll get a good...

2009..American Standard.
