T-bird and the 360 (double stack head) - bass nirvana
When I got my '63 in '74, I related it more to MTH than the Who.
did four top 40 45s last night and never swapped bass...about 1/3 fingers and 2/3 pick using a Dunlop .73 nylon.....always amazes me the variety of attack tones by just playing with the attack angle of the pick on the rounds...
strange, when I think of The Who I automatically thing NRs..T-bird and the 360 (double stack head) - bass nirvana

We were always blowing up models back then!
yeah once the novelty wore off, off the balcony with an M-80 they went..
We had a stone BBQ pit in the back yard. Kept the pieces from goin' everywhere.. Then we'd burn what was left.

It's amazing we still have all our limbs...
Same here. I don’t need to change basses. I have done a couple of cover band gigs with my VP and found it’s really versatile. I use the orange tortex “taco chips” for about 1/4 and fingers 3/4
You mean Bohemian Crapsody? What upset me the most about that movie was that they somewhat put Freddie’s dirty laundry out there but portrayed all the other band members like angels in comparison.
I read The Dirt when it came out and just watched the flick. From what I remember they did a decent job but if you are a reader I HIGHLY recommend the book. It is a super fast read and lots of fun.
As for the movie, I have issues with some of the casting but they absolutely nail Tommy Lee and Nikki IMO.
Vince actor is shorter than Mars actor, and Mars actor just didn’t work for me.
Other than being on the wrong side of the stage? Naaaaaaaaaahhhhhh.Ya think the fella on the right with the white Bird and big boots was an influence on me?

Thanks, just checked out the eBook from my local library. I'm more interested in 'The Heroin Diaries' but will have to look elsewhere for that.

used to throw them into the toilets in the boys room at Rickards Middle School in the 70's.....all that was left was a dangling gushing pipe...
and can still play bass..It's amazing we still have all our limbs...
clams?....oh you mean jazz passages...Yeah, but no excuse for clams.
