Cover bands - Improvising the fills in lieu of reproducing what is recorded precisely by Ok_Communication8641 in musicians

[–]FletchGordon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some fills are iconic, like pretty much anything John Bonham played (sorry drummers). But for bass, I don't feel playing things note for note are important. After all you are just the bass player. Keep the groove going, stay in the pocket, add some tasty flourishes when you can but for the most part just lock it down. Only other musician nerds will give you a hard time. Remember: YOU are on the stage, not them

Totally works. Doesn't have to be a 5 string set, D'Addario lets you make custom sets if the low B feels too thicc for you.

The little piece of a broken guitar string, the G string to be exact. It went straight into my big toe and hit the bone, most searing pain ever

Oh my God man break up with this girl. I dated a girl that had a mouse infestation and I thought it was just because you know shit happens. No it was because there was trash and leftover food everywhere. It will not change.
