  • So in this series I am covering bands that I have seen at the legendary Nottingham Rock City over the years (2002-2019). The venue recently had a new floor fitted and upcycled the old flooring into commemorative plaques... awesome! You can kind of make them out in the frame behind me, displayed along with a whole load of tickets, photos and plectrums. Anyhow, I figured this (combined with the fact that the venue will be turning forty next year) could make for a good theme behind what songs I choose to cover next.
    So representing the year 2009, it's Alkaline Trio with This Could Be Love (taken from their 2003 album, Good Mourning). Play along with the bass tablature at the bottom of the screen or click the link below for the full tab PDF. Enjoy!

    Great playing. I highly recommend searching for the good mourning album Demo here on UA-cam. It is raw and amazing. Dans bass sounds incredible.

    Dude thank you so much. I appreciate you don’t skip notes with such a ridiculously ambitious tempo. I will be trying to get up to speed for a while. But worth it for such a fantastic song!

    Hey, that's a great job and the tab is fantastic too (I'm trying to learn it by playing along with you.
    One quick question. In measure 4 for example, you're playing the G# and the A on the D string rather than the G string. Wouldn't it be a touch easier to keep your hand in the same position and just play them on the string higher? It comes more into play on something like measure 10, that jump from E to F# is huge (for me). You're far better than I am, so I'm just looking for a reason as to why it might be a bit better to play it that way. Thanks.

      Hey, thanks for the kind words! Dan Adriano really is the well kept secret of modern pop punk bass playing, he has so many catchy bass lines that sit nicely in the mix. You're quite right in that much of the song can make use of the G string to make the 'jumps' up and down the neck less dramatic. The reason I choose not to (and you will probably find I'm not the only one) is due to the timbre the G string produces. I find it to produce a more 'middly' than 'bassy' sound... kind of twangy I guess. I guess this is probably not such an issue with heavier gauge strings. But yeah, it's really just personal preference and the notes on the D string seem more fitting with the 'feel' to the song.

      @@ctrlaltbass6990 Thanks. I'm probably going to sacrifice the sound for the quickness of the changes, but I really appreciate the answer. I love the part that starts with the 7th measure, it's challenging as all hell but sounds amazing.
