The state of music is complete shit. Which is great, in that it seems theres gona have to be like i gues, a revolution. I think with the coming of broadband, if record sales drop so drastically everybody goes out of business it will happen then, as soon as companies can't support image conscieous cock bands any more. People will be screaming for something new. I also think free music is great, because lets face it, at present theres too much money in music. Internet offers free publicity on a world wide scale - so the big bands lose out, but for the new generation its perfect. You could sell not one album, but have sold out wembley shows!

I cant wait, anyone no what the other bands are like? I gather Risactonia are pretty heavy (kick ass)

"An extremely important what of a band?" Trust me, you'd notice if they took the bass off all ur fave albums....

"tasteful is for the weak " Nah I have to disagree with you. Being tasteful is what makes music, music. If its not tasteful you become Vai - and you don't want that, well I don't. Have u ever heard Vai trying to be tasteful, like on his David lee roth songs etc. They sound so shit - choreographed, stereotypical rock songs. if you know what I mean. Whereas Led Zeppelin are a prime example of a band who know when to play, and when to sit back. As far as the Incubus bassist goes, I would value him much more in a band than Claypool, who abseolutely kills Ler's playin so that the guitar is pretty much obseolete. Just an opinion.....

"he defined a bass as something is wasnt and now can be! a lead instrument" I thought that for a while, its true, but a lot his stuff is very stanley clarke-ish

"Paul Gilbert also played a song which had 100 of his guitars each playing a bit on" I heard about that, fucking insane. I could not be arsed doing that.... Does anyone make their own recordings?

Hanger 18 is wicked I just listened to it.

Im 5 11

yeh, the bass player is so tasteful it hurts....

Some Incubus solos off Fungus Amongus are really good. The guitarist and bassist are really good, they just got too, too.....tasteful

im up for the challenge. i'll do it.

yeh, who came up with that one.... bad point to mention stanley clarke is sumthin like 6 foot 10

I'm thinking: Dimebag - Physcho holiday Nuno Bettencourt - Lil Jack Horny Vai - For the love...... 'best of the rest!!' Satriani - Ice 9 Hendrix - the wind cried mary Hammet - Struggle within If I put my mind to it I could probably remember better ones... ?(

Piano is easy, so long as im only playing 'chopsticks'

"The bass is easy to play" mwahahaha, ur funny kid everyone always gets locked into that perception. Bass isnt easy, its as difficult as any instrument. Its easy to be Mark Hoppus or the fat guy from newfoundglory (but then, they are shit bassist), go listen to stanley clarke or victor wooten.....

Slap bass is the coolest - also fun for ten minutes, then i go back to playing guitar

looks sweet

I love my trem, I wouldnt block it for the world... sweet love

How'd u manage that one?

I'm sure I heard Paul Gilbert does 32 NPS when he dus tremolo picking

that sounds cool, I'll try make it along.

Look, get off your high horse.... Only jokin not bad - much better than anythin I could do

If anyone drops out or can't make it, I recommend Apraxia!

I second that...

Hear hear
