The Last Bass Outpost

Quote from: gearHed289 on November 18, 2024, 08:19:32 AMNice, even with the distortion it still has a P Bass quality. Nice Bonanza riff too. 

One of my nicknames is Hoss,  bestowed upon me way back in '76 at The House of Guitars.  Gotta have a little sense of humor

I feel attacked.     

Stumbled across this today. Great bass line and well played. Loved that show as a kid and have recently gotten into watching reruns. It holds up!

Nice tune. So I used this to learn the guitar part. Not there yet but at 70-80% speed it takes shape.

That's what I like here, you accept all kinds of fruits.

My Ozzy/ Sabbath tribute finally had a gig this past weekend, health issues of band members and life's curve balls keep us off stage for most of the summer.  Here's a clip of the solo I do before N.I.B. https://youtube.com/shorts/GSOeprcnkBo?si=MuPlsTovHGQiS-81

One of my favourite venues downtown has just completed the move. Our nickname for the old dive was the Land of Dreams. The original building was falling apart , the move was inevitable , and turned out to take longer than anticipated. They took the old bar and many of the fixtures and appointments from the original. I've done the weekly blues jam for about 27 years and tonight will be my first return to the new digs. It's right in the downtown core so parking will be more of a challenge , but there might well be more street traffic. We'll see tonight , I'm looking forward to it. I'm curious to hearing the new room. We used to generally just put vocals in the PA , so your stage mix was the room sound. With experienced players the old room could sound gorgeous. Or if you crossed a certain volume threshold it could become a bag of noise.
I used to play that location when it was a coffeehouse in the 70's. It's like coming full circle.

Grilled guinea pigs are this NYC restaurant's shocking specialty
