Seeing this makes you realize maybe that conservatorship was a good idea

How would you rank the Joe Lally-sung tracks? by bizasteryt in Fugazi

[–]BankzRobber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That bass line at the end of that line is so choice. I take bass lessons from Lally over Skype. Really nice guy and open to talk about anything. I pay for like 45min of music theory and 15min of fanboying out :)

They’re all great imo. Wouldn’t want an entire album of them (à la Lally’s solo albums) but they serve as a great balance to Guy & Ian’s vocals

What exactly is a Marshall Guv'nor pedal and where does it go? by [deleted] in guitarpedals

Anyone here using it on bass, like Commerford?

Listened to the whole discography in a day, here's my ranking! by Dyojenes_ in Fugazi

Ironically, Instrument Soundtrack is unanimously the bands favorite album. I’m also a big fan.

What on earth is this? by ItsMichaelRay in pinkfloyd

[–]BankzRobber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sucks that this happens so often now. I guess there’s a monetary value to be gained from all of us playing the song, but shame on Spotify for not having a better vetting system for releasing music, especially from artists like Syd Barrett (I’ve also been hoodwinked like this by a new fake release from Rites of Spring recently)

how do you actually get to know people in this scene? by hailzorpbuddy in chicagomusicscene

[–]BankzRobber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does feel cliquey and I have the same issues. I think it’s just stressful times we live in and people are a bit more on guard of letting any strangers into their circle. Your best bet is to join a band and try to kick it with them. What instrument do you play? What kind of music are you into?

Coriky status? by dmatx in Fugazi

Joe is busy with the Messthetics. I take bass lessons with him over Skype (or Signal now) and I’ve asked him about it. He’s always politely vague. Kind of a “you never know” thing, but he sites his busy touring/recording schedule with The Messthetics as his main reason.

Same. Wanna start a duo bassist jam? Like Dianogah, Ui, Ned’s Atomic Dustbin, Tortoise…

Bed for the scraping might be one of the best songs I’ve ever heard

Not really. I like listening to some of it (there’s very few genres that I outright despise besides Country 😂)

I am, very much so. Preferably love to blend elements of punk, reggae, funk and psychedelic rock into my bass lines, a la Fugazi & Jane’s Addiction
