      Anugerah Ardiansyah I don't know? Can I? Personally. Every bassist I have had the chance to work with talks about Entwhistle, Claypool, Oliveri, JPJ... Every flea obsessed bassists I have had a chance to work with has been sloppy and annoying because they base their playing off a very average bassist.

    as a bass player, I really have found this educational. I literally cannot believe that I actually have never worn my crown and kingcape at a show. now that I know it's okay to do so, I will begin doing that now. I'll start with my purple one. then the red one, then I'll buy more colors. so many colors. wonderful colors. this is wonderful. keep the education coming. p.s. who the ffkk is Glenn fricker?;

      Because time and time again most of them prove that they are the most useless person in the band (most not all) by not knowing their parts, not writing their parts, not knowing how to tune their instruments and last but not least being too cheap to know what new bass strings look like (one of my friends was all of these; guitar player wrote and recorded his parts, tuned the bass and when a string broke my friend would just switch the strings tuning pegs to avoid getting new strings)

    Guy signs up for bass lessons. First lesson the instructor teaches him how to hold his bass the right way. Takes some time but they eventually get there. Second lesson they progress to play the E-note. The guy has some difficulties here too, but manages to successfully play three consecutive full notes by the end of the lesson. Third lesson, the bassist never shows up. Fourth, fifth, sixth lesson still a no show. Instructor figures he got bored and stopped playing.
    Skip six months, instructor sees the man on the street and says "Hey, I guess you didn't like the bass that much" to which the guy responds "Yea sorry I skipped the lessons, I got in a band and we've been touring for the past six months non-stop!"

      Ok I've been searching for the comment like this just so I could see I'm not the only one hoping Jared will make a song out of one of those riffs but seriously? I would understand if the bassline was like "The John Myung's" but you really want the song with bassline that goes 0 3 5 the whole time (even tho it wont be hearable because of guitar part)? And why do you like bassline more than this amazing guitar part?

    • @BeanLord69
      @BeanLord69 4 роки тому +4

      @@IR-O-IN-I-IN 1) I never said that the bassline should be just 0 3 5, I said I liked the bass line. It would be good if he would add some flavor to that but still keep it a 0 3 5 at its roots
      2) I never said I liked the bassline more than the guitar part, I just said I liked the bass line. What's wrong with saying I like something?
