Where were you when Jaco died?

[warwick.hoy]

I was 8,...so likely tickling the Ivories. I didn't know who the guy was back then.

 

[bassrique]

Don't know. Don't care. Didn't like his playing much.

Now there's a way to be different.

I was drinking in Annapolis.

Chance are I was doing exactly this.

I was in a travellodge in Norwich. Gutted. I listened to 'man in the mirror', must've been like 50 times that day.

September 21, 1987. I was probably at home with my wife and one-year-old son. Didn't know or cared that a Jaco Pastorius even existed. Had other things to think about.

Who is Jaco? You talking about Michael Jackson?

No pedos in this thread please.

No pedos in this thread please.

I have no idea what a "pedo" is. Care to enlighten those who dunno?

And I've never liked Jaco's bass playing much. Not a Victor Wooten fan either. Too much wankety-wankety. Gimme Bootsy Collins or Duck Dunn.

I was planning on saying I was two haploid cells swimming around in my respective parents but I was actually alive for this one. Though I was only a year old, so I was probably somewhere crapping my diaper.

On the grassy knoll.

Give me an example of the "wankety-wankety".

I was busy being a 2nd grader. So even if I don't have an alibi, I was still a minor.

Me either on Pilgrim's 3 remarks.

 

[capnsandwich]

I was probably sleeping since it happened past my bed time. Severna Park Middle School started early.

Please explain.

Completely agree...

 

[bassrique]

Completely agree...

Please explain. What of Jaco's playing have you heard?

 

[Skitch it!]

Dude, I feel your pain but c'mon, you can't be getting everyone to dig Jaco's thang, horses for courses

 

[Munjibunga]
