  1. I've heard the newest demos and it's a lot tighter and more unified than the EP.

    As for the bass players bass technique? Matt has taught himself from scratch, in fact still learning the basics on being recruited into Oxbow Lake. As far as I've seen he had no bass "heroes" or major influences to pinch from or aspire to and unlike many of us bassists went straight to bass without having first played another instrument. What he plays is natural to him and I applaud the purity of this. It's not hard to understand that his first band cast the die for the riffs he lets forth in this EP but having heard the new recordings it's plain to see that he has definitely "levelled up" with the Teaspoons.

    Don't forget he has to fill a lot of space in this guitar-less outfit but he gets his head down and does a great job. Cut him some slack!

     

     

     

    P.S. I still keep wanting to hear female backing vocals in this and the new recordings though. :)

     

  2. Wizened guitarist/singer and bass-player looking for a drummer to complete an originals thunder trio (just made that up) .... punk/stoner... Uh dunno EHG maybe.

    Enthusiasm and commitment a must. Own transport preferred. Bring your own butteries.

    Our tunes are evil, conversely we are not so dinna be feert.

  3. Ok this is now SOLD !!! :)

    However, cheeky monkey that I am this was my #2 backup in case of #1 failure (which in 9 years of ownership never happened). So if anyone wants one of these rarities in future give me a shout and I may part with my #1. It's an earlier model with original box and instructions etc.

    Cheers

  4. The Zoom B2.1U is a great wee pedal (very programmable, USB, drum rhythms for practice) and in recognition of this is getting more expensive than they used to be but if you want something more pro and gigable get a Boss GT6B. You should be able to pick up one second hand for just over 100 these days.

  5. Well, say what you will about Scott Weiland, at the end of the day he is a man (mostly). :D

    Wouldn't it be a nuts twist to have a female tributing him tho. I'd be up for it if you're offering coming along for a tryout like - even just for a laugh. :up:
