Why?

I just did a quick count. It looks like it will be around 125 by the time the year is over.

Also why the Beatles broke up. True story.

Thanks!

Do you have any more info on the thumb stop, or a link? I searched on Gollihur's website and couldn't find it, but perhaps I'm not using the right search terms.

Theatre veteran here. I have probably played 150 or more productions over the years, and over 3,000 performances. Next weekend I start a production of Mary Poppins which will run through January 21, 2024, with a possible extension until January 28. I'm sure I could come up with stories, but...

This may be what you're referring to: IRS announces 2023 Form 1099-K reporting threshold delay for third party platform payments; plans for a $5,000 threshold in 2024 to phase in implementation | Internal Revenue Service For what it's worth, though, this regulation only impacts who needs to...

Here's another example. Bass, Bass Bone and Bari Sax are in unison on this one. Gotta play the ink.

Exactly, it is very common for arrangers to write bass, bari sax and bass bone parts that are in unison or in octaves. (I posted an example below.) It's also very common for a bass player to have parts that are in unison or octaves with the guitar or piano, or parts that rhythmically and/or...

You'll learn more if you listen more, keep an open mind, and not insult the experienced players who are trying to help you. Do you remember any of the arrangements that gave you trouble?

I've had to take advance of Paypal's buyer protection in a TB transaction, so I voted no to the poll. https://www.talkbass.com/threads/am-i-getting-screwed.1036113/page-3#post-15277839

I'm playing a total of nine shows this week: 7 performances of a Motown/soul revue where I'm using my 2008 Fender P with flats for the Motown-era songs and a Stingray 5HH for more disco-oriented songs; and 2 performances of The Rocky Horror Show, where I'm using my Marcus Miller Sire V7.

Try this one: And whatever you do, don't try to play this entirely on the E string. :rollno:;)

29 years.

(1) The guitar doesn't play everything on the E string in Paranoid; (2) the guitar isn't playing the octave Ds and Es he is asking about; and (3) depending on how many frets his bass has, it would be extremely impractical or impossible to play that figure on the E string.

Does your bank have a feature where you can turn your card off via an app?

I would definitely shift between the 5th and 7th frets. You don't want that open D string ringing out in those octaves.

Agree that this tuning doesn't make much sense for bass, and one of the reasons for that is that, unlike guitar, bass is typically not playing chords. If it were me, I would leave the 5-sting bass in standard tuning and learn where the notes are on the bass neck. But that said, if the...

So essentially, Pythagoras was the Leo Fender and not the Paul Tutmarc of the hypotenuse.

I would have some strong words for whatever imbecile asked you to do that.

Nice job (as usual). I love all of the little variations Jamerson played over the F7.

There was an amazing sunset last night while I was doing a photo assignment for a local soccer league. Invalid Link Removed

My band played a gig a Chris' Jazz Cafe in Philly last month. We played the Bill Holman arrangement of Cherokee and it's one of the two tunes from our show they chose to post on their Youtube channel. (I'm on guitar in this band, not bass, and pretty much buried in the mix. But you can see...

Do you know whether your theater is doing the original orchestration or the 2003 revival orchestration?

I have an identical Jazz Bass Special, made in 1987. I believe that the "E8" serial number of yours indicates that it was built in 1988.

Perhaps you need to get some rest and come back when you're in a better frame of mine to articulate clearly whatever point it is you're trying to make.

Trolling.

I have a bass I've owned since I was a freshmen in college that is older than Taylor Swift.

Lol. It looks like the guy you're referring to came into a thread about memorizing the fingerboard and made a bunch of absurd statements like, "theory is more of a hindrance than it is helpful," and then people disagreed with him, and the thread was eventually closed. He wasn't banned for life...

I can only listen quietly on laptop speakers right now so I can't really hear the bass but the rhythm of the piano figure is something like this:

You'll be fine. I spent a weekend in Boston with my kids in the fall and we went all over the city on a $22.50 7-day bus and subway pass.

There have been four threads with the words "learn," "notes" and "fretboard" in the title and none of them is even remotely like what you describe. If we expand the search to "learn" and "fretboard," there are 18 threads, but still only two in the past two years and neither of those is what...

I once did my best to transcribe that line.

I strongly suspect that there was more to the story than what you're relating here. Who was the person and when did this happen?

I hear that this guy never got another gig after stopping this song. :rollno:

Which output on the DI pedal were you using to go to your amp? What was the gate and how was it set?

Exactly what they did to me for a delivery arriving tomorrow. They initially listed May 5, then changed it to May 3. May 3 came and went with no updates at all, and then late today I finally got a notification that delivery is expected tomorrow (the originally scheduled delivery day) between...
