"How to match your bass and shoelaces"
Okay, I did not noticed the link to the video.
Yeah, I don't like that.
But interesting...
Don't you all like Fieldy "playing bass" more then his solo stuff.

Come on, his bass playing is not bad like that solowork.
Maybe it is his way of showing that he can do a lot worse than being a bassist.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
That video was... well, it reminds me of darn near everything that is wrong with popular music today... all pose, no play.
Do kids actually look up to this guy???
If u played like that, Harry u'd prolly start to pose,too because of a lack of challenge

I've never seen such p*n*s-envy in my life whenever a Fieldy thread pops up.
It cracks me up to no end. His band dominated heavy music the last decade, and sold 10M times of records vs the amount of post counts many of you have, and you think he's the one with his feelings hurt?
He's laughing all the way to the bank and into the heavy music record books while you sit here wishing you were in that position instead.
"My band is awesome too! Just give us a chance, pleeeeease!"
:scowl::scowl:
Then we could sit here and talk about your $h!tty technique and tone. That'll be the day I look forward to, personally!
Come to think of it, you'd probably be so buried in the mix with mundane and useless bass lines nobody would even bother bringing you up!

Envy?
No, I think the world you're looking for is disdain.

No.
The word I'm using is "weak".
Extra mild, at that!

I don't think anyone here thinks that.
This isn't like sports, where on must perform to a high level to get the contract. Entertainment seems more about image than talent quite often. That's just the way that it is and I'm not losing sleep over it.
I'm sure many here have just that, but there are musicians among us here that can play, and these cats have opinions.
Is Fieldy a friend of yours or something?

Really. So, can you please tell me what was on the cover of Korn's debut in regards to Fieldy that made him (or the band) more "image-appealing" to the masses, that made them such a huge success?
IIRC, it's a kid in a swingset, being overlooked by a shadow of someone holding a blade. Yeah. They were just so worried about their "image" to put them over on fans...
And those "musicians" probably couldn't hack it on a year-long tour with Korn. I take it you've never seen nor heard them, live, correct? I know I couldn't without working the hell up to it. Especially when they had all the original members.
He's no friend by any means. I just think it's damn hilarious to hear this nonsense all the time while he keeps raking it in and selling albums, while most everyone else here sits on their duff whining about it. It just goes to show how many unprofessional "musicians" there are here. How many times have you seen a real bassist in a mag interview or TV spot ragging on another player, just for the hell of it, or to spot their "opinions"? (Jeff Berlin aside, mind you). It's stupid, and pointless. And the pinnacle of the afore-stated p*n*s-envy.
ZING!!!! and +1!I've never seen such p*n*s-envy in my life whenever a Fieldy thread pops up.

Too long, but signature worthy!...I just think it's damn hilarious to hear this nonsense all the time while he keeps raking it in and selling albums, while most everyone else here sits on their duff whining about it.

Yes it's true, what they sell is an image, which is just as important, if not more, than the actual music. Please tell me you get that.
The drugs would kill most people, so yes, you are correct.
I've seen video, and ....meh. Note that I have been to many a high energy [mosh-type] show in my life and have even worked my way up to the pit dozens of times.
Huh? With booze or something? Not being a smart-ass, I don't know what you mean.
A TBer posted a link to a preview of a vid. Most of us thought it came up short to be kind. Go check out the Anthony Jackson thread in this sub-forum. Now there's a musician I'd like to learn from, as would many of the players here.
This isn't a periodical or TV program, it's a "Fieldy has a Instructional DVD" thread.
Yes, his playing is just that, as well as the time I've spent posting about it.
