A Song for Everything

[BrendaBear]

What model bass do you play, and who was your influence?

I got my first one at 17 for my birthday. Ibanez SR305DX. Korn, Limp Bizkit, and Godsmack were my top bands at the time, but Flea's licks were far too tempting. I recently bought a SR300E to start playing more punk and walking type riffs.

I prefer Fender Jazz 5 string bases. I have been playing 5 strings since the early 90’s. And I was always a fan of the sound and role of the bass, so I listened to lots of Motown, Larry Graham, Yes, Rush, really a ton of stuff.

Here's a glimpse into @UnquietDreams mind. He does have good intentions, that's the takeaway here.

No denial here, I'm really not a Springsteen fan but I absolutely love a few of his songs... this is one of them...

Bruce Springsteen - Glory Days

Being a huge fan of Bruce, thank you for this.

Mind

Losing one's mind? Pretty familiar with that problem...

Little Anthony & the Imperials - Goin' Out of My Head

Hmmm... 19th Nervous Breakdown would have been good too... oh well.

Both good tunes.

Broken

You know, Andy Williams' "Lonely Street" has "broken dreams" in the lyrics. But I don't want to have a mutiny on my hands.

Heart (not the band, either)

Well, that and I unironically love Toad the Wet Sprocket. I have a soft spot for this early 90s folk-tinged rock.

I am a big fan of the band... particularly their early stuff... but c'mon... Janis!!!

Janis Joplin - Piece of My Heart

I have to admit, I love the Sammy Hagar cover. His rasp worked well with that.

So… Elizabeth is a fiend… good to know!

So… Elizabeth is a fiend… good to know!

She can play dirty, that's for sure.

Thought of temperatures rising from some fun PMs earlier. How about some Elvis movie fun.

Well I try to make it interesting.

I do not, I'm a widdle

Have to temper all that punk and hard rock with something soft and melodic now and then. This is perhaps my favorite of Don McLean's, since "American Pie" got so overplayed on the radio.

The Interrupters "We Got Each Other"

Rollicking

I should probably warn you, I've made some adjustments to my Rancid station on Pandora so I've been in a deep punk/ska dive lately, so be prepared for a lot of that.

 

[BrendaBear]

Rollicking

Well, I'm in a total light hearted, fun tune mood... and this song is pretty rollicking.

The Beach Boys - Barbara Ann
