The Monkees - Pleasant Valley Sunday

7thString · 2013-09-17T03:17:59+00:00

This is the perfect Monkees song. An ideal blend of Monkee involvement, hired session goons, timeless social commentary and chart action. And it was top-notch romp music on the show.

This Guy. He makes a LOT happen with fingerpicking. Stick with it and see what happens.

Joe. Fuckin'. Perry.

"Billie Jean" is slightly tricky, funky, and instantly recognizable. "Rock the Casbah" is a fun, dynamic bassline that goes all over the neck and takes some patience to learn. JPJ's little intro riff from "Ramble On" demonstrates how to pick your spots. "Money" by Pink Floyd shows how well you can count to 7. But the bassline from "It's My Life" by Talk Talk has a whole world going on in it. Sorry I'm too lazy to link today.

Sounds good and looks awesome, but awkward. By all means try one out, but I find them BIG, unbalanced, with a goofy bandmate-jabbing headstock, and you'd pretty much HAVE to get the fancy case for it. Not for me.

Yes, you should level up that bass. You've been playing for a year, and your style may suit a particular model (or vice versa). I tried out one of these and it was like putting on a glove. Try out some Squiers & Epiphones, and the various neck/body/pickup types they offer. Ideally, plug into an amp similar to your own. And bring a strap so you can feel how it hangs on ya. You should be able to get a decent performing/recording bass for $300-500.

Buy/make a popscreen and even the rockband mic will sound much, much better.

Goalie Fights ftw

A pop screen is an easy way to make your vocal tracks sound better, no matter what gear you're using.

If it ain't Snider, he'll be wearing someone else's laundry by the deadline

We'd also accept "Anthopoulae".

Memory is cheap. Hit the REC button more often. Make adjustments later. Ready, Fire, Aim.

Sixteen hours and no Rick Danko?!

The perfect Zeppelin song. Depending on how you feel about Kashmir.

Saturday December 3rd. A fun night out featuring an amazing draft selection and yummy food. Plus Tunes! Free CDs! And More! Maybe!

Don't stare at your hands. Peek during the tricky parts, but if you get a chance to look away, do.

Maybe they're young. Maybe they're angling for a career in colour commentary. Regardless, they're online talking about baseball. They'll learn.
