A little Birdy advice .... I'd suggest everyone cool it before Veronica has to wave the big stick.
I feel stupid. Forgive me if the answer to my question is glaringly obvious (I'm more than a little "altered" at the moment). What needs to be "cooled"? {genuine concern}

<edit>

I think I mighta figgerd it oot;)

I'm thinkin' it mighta been an issue with a particular adjective that flew from my from my fingers. I mighta tooken care of it...:whistle:

Er discussion of the 'no one cares about your tone' thread...
 
Not really doin' anything right now, so against my better judgement, I clicked your link. I read only the originating post, and quickly rushed back home. There are a whole lotta ways to say what he was trying to say, without being a A-hole. He just chose not to use them. He made an unsolicited post, and came out swingin'. I call BS! he didn't care about a word he was sayin'. He just wanted to start some sh!t. Sadly... he'll get what he wants (unless they strike the thread or "evict" him) :rollno:
I dunno. I didn't mind any of it. I'm in the camp that says the audience generally doesn't pay attention to the bass. If an audience does notice when things change, it is great. I'm personally not convinced that other band members always notice much about the bass. A guitarist (who happens to be an outstanding guitarist and musician) didn't know I use three different 'Birds on a regular basis. They sound different to me. Not everyone pays much attention. But I don't mind other observations no matter how they are worded.
 
Hey! This is a great show! I'm not familiar with the '79 line-up, but This may be some of the best playin' I've heard from Dicky Betts! The other guitar player is really good too! The bass player's good & solid... and a little different for them. Bonnie Bramlett sings with 'em quite a bit, Delbert McClinton joins 'em on harp, and at 1:57 John Belushi sings a tune with 'em!
