Use your fingers like a real man.

I use fingers. The thing that pisses me off most is people who use a pick with a bass. I mean, yeah, you get a different sound, but it sounds sh/t.

Different transient attacks. No reason not to use everything at your disposal.

I was just joking with berk, bert, whatever his name is.

I like the sound of a pick on bass, but I use my fingers because I'm used to it.
I just have to keep in mind not to play scruggs style bass. =/


My whistle and case came. Hoorah.

my favorite bassist, John Entwistle, used both pick and fingers.

He usually used picks on his older stuff, and fingers for his newer songs. Probably because he was a pick player in his early days, so he uses the same technique later on. Which is odd, because for his My Generation solos, he uses fingers, even though most of his other material that time were pick oriented.

Another one of my favorite bassists used picks (Paul McCartney)

Though I much prefer fingering. The women like it more...I mean, I just think it sounds better.

Awdamn.

Apparently, over the course of English 101 [1 semesters worth o' English for those of you who don't know], we have to write a research paper that's at LEAST 8 pages long with the topic "What makes good writing?" or "What is good writing?"

Stupid college.

im insecure.

Aren't we all.
My mom is shouting out what she's done today, And my dad is like "You kids better start pulling your asses around". Ekk

I have a load of AP Envi Sci summer homework, due the moment we get back to school. But my teacher hasn't sent me it, despite the fact that I've emailed him about it. And apparently I'm going to have a huge test on it too when I come back.

Oh god, The funniest thing happen too me just know.
I started playing along to some music and my sister litteraly kicks open my door and tells me to stop and I say "Fine whatever" and then she stands there for like 45 secinds waiting for me to get out from behind my kit. Wtf.

Man, 8 pages on that topic would be easy. It's just an opinion paper, so you can pee all over it, throw in a few big words, and get an A.



I've been playing my tin whistle for the last hour. Effing Sweet. =/

It's extremely out of tune, though. It's in D, but it's almost an entire 1/2 step up. I don't think I can tune it with out breaking it.

I'm at my kit know, WIth my lap-top on my snare and I'm on my throne. 2 cule.

haha nice, erky berk. how ya going? p.s. are you billy-howedell on msn? if so; speak to me! I say hi and you ignore me, lol.

I got ****ing drug tested at school today because they said I had weed on me. Complete bull****. Im out of weed anyway.

Some of the greatest bassists of all time use picks. Chris Squire and John Entwistle being first among them.

Did you pass the test? Btw, I got busted by teh po po's with weed on me. Luckily I only got ticket. Phew!

Yeah dude. I havent smoked in a while.

haha I hate the Po Pos. Your lucky you got 1 ticket. I have no more good hiding places.

Actually I have two tickets, because I blew positive on a breathalizer as well. >.<
Not to be racist but im lucky im white. I live in NC and were I black or hispanic I would be in jail, or out on bail.

My friend has th best luck. he usually carrys weed in his wallet and the one day he forgot his wallet they did a drug search at school.
Also, he had a cop behind him about to pull him over when another car blew past doing like 50mph over the limit and the cop chased him instead.

Haha man your friend should quit testing his luck!

Hes 17, weighs 310lbs and drove his Ford Escort wagon into a ditch during a huge storm and never got hurt.

Course his dad's a minister so maybe the Big guy's watchin out for him



Scratch that, I remember he once tore the back page out of a bible to roll a blunt....

Maybe god likes that sort of thing...?

haha damn dude.

Yeah, Steven I agree with you about the NC part. Although they take it a little bit easier over here by Garner.

when they do drug searches at my school they are only legally able to check peoples lockers...so if you keep it on you all the time, your clean, but if it starts to smell...then...yeah...

Ah garner no way dude! I know two guys over there were forming a band! Well, im not sure now since the ticket but we were. Theyre cool as hell, got a house of their own and everything. Since I prob wont be able to play with them would you be interested in forming a band with them? I kinda feel bad about leaving them drumerless all of the sudden.
