I used to do this to Ravi Coltrane, and stopped. Let Felix and Ravi be their own men. Peace.




No doubt! Look at what happened with Julian Lennon. Agh!:bawl: The public thought that he might be the successor to his dad, but it didn't happen. No wonder that was one of the reasons for his chronic drug problems. That unjust pressure of having to live up to your father's standards is simply not fair. It really messes you up.

Sean Ono Lennon, the pampered and favored son, has fared no better. His mom has smothered him and controlled nearly every aspect of his life. He has virtually no say in ANYthing! I think this is partly the result of her overprotective nature(especially from overly zealous, and sleazy producers out to make a name for themselves), and her innate desire to have incessant control over everything within her sphere of influence.

I only hope that Felix Pastorius isn't JUST a great bass player---but also a great all-around artist: one unique to his class and taste, but has the same spark and magic as his father in his best days.

Good luck, Felix.:)

That's weird. Around here "blows ass" means something is bad. I guess you Amish folks from PA haven't caught up with the lingo yet, though. Do your elders know you play bass guitar?

Who you talkin at? Why i oughtta ride my buggy over your knee caps.... Good job sucking at bass enough to not play one in a band. Maybe i shall consult my dictionary for a definition of blowing ass.. Ahhh yes Blowing Ass - the act of ass blowing. I.E. Pulling a Funk_Engineer. Example Sentence: Wow Funk_Engineer blows some serious ass.
