The Last Bass Outpost

Sebastian Bach is a hard act to follow, but Fräulein Hale doesn't do a half-bad job here ...

I also think my fellow countraman Eric Grönwall did a great job. The clip is from one of the first series of shows he did in Skid Row. He came in as recovering cancer patient and unfortunately his body could'nt cope with any lengthy touring in the long run so he had to jump ship recently after 2 years in the band. A pretty relaxed newcomer considering he is a big Sebastian Bach fan and knew what shoes he had to fill (hang on for that high pitch scream at 5:19):

Last wednesday I met Jimi Crutchley and Ash Sheehan.
Jimi is Glenn Hughes' manager and Ash is Glenn's drummer.

It turns out they have an amazing band called Dead Sea Skulls.
The guitar player is Jimi's brother by the way.

Now if that isn't music predictably right up Herr van den Broek's alley! 

Ash is a real find as a drummer.

Looks like one of those Chinese cheapies that I see on eBay all the time.

It's purdy - just like its owner! 

PS: Set neck or thru?

 Away on band trip............

 These are 9 ply neck thru, China production basses, it's really quite nice and the Blue is to my eye much more attractive than the purple, kinda glad I passed on that color. A good shot of the finish is not going to be easy, but in person it's quite beautiful.
