Crap! Not having testicles sometimes has a downside

Does anyone know where he's gonna play in NYC? Prolly MSG or Yankee Stadium

TheSeeker625 02-17-2005 09:37 PM

I would say MSG, but I'm not sure. He's announcing next week. If I don't get a ticket, I'm f[B]u[/B]ckin sneaking in.

[QUOTE=Sgt._Joker]Ringo Starr wasnt The Bestt drummer, but he had a f-ing awesome style, he didnt overdo the Tom Toms, and concentrated mainly on the snare, hit hat, crash symbols and Bass drum. [/QUOTE]

Ummm, he used a lot of tom tom later on. His tom tom sound on Abbey Road and bits on the White Album are a very signature sound. early on, he didn't use enough tom tom (then again, no one did, since no one knew how to tune 'em correctly back then to make them sound good).

I said [I]overdo[/I] the tom toms i didn't say he didn't use them, or that he only used tom toms a tiny bit,
all i ment was He didnt use them [I]too [/I]much, or [I]so[/I] much that they were overpowering in the songs.

Recently i have set up my cpu speakers so that the Subwoofer is closer to me then the speakers, and i've been turning up the bass to its maximum so i can hear Paul McCartneys bass playing more then anything else, Because i have never really heard his bass in many songs.

Its Really quite fuc*ing amazing,

*Just throwing my two cents in*

opeth_oasis 02-18-2005 05:11 AM

his bass isnt too difficult, but its catchy

Riva 02-18-2005 07:09 AM

So, what do you think about Sgt. Peppers topping the Beatles albums in the top 100 poll? I liked it. :)

Walrus Gumboot 02-18-2005 09:13 AM

It is really an impossible question to answer. That and the one with "who had the best solo career"

Laztec 02-18-2005 10:55 AM

Hey does the beatles anthology include the movie a Hard Day's Night?

thunderzstruck2 02-18-2005 11:22 AM

Why did the Beatles break up?

Walrus Gumboot 02-18-2005 03:58 PM

Alot of reasons, having to do with getting sick of each other, and of course, Yoko.

BludgeonySteve 02-18-2005 04:00 PM

They were drifting apart. Yoko just pushed them waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over the edge.

Sgt._Joker 02-18-2005 06:33 PM

Yoko did not cause the beatles to break up, she might of had a tiny TINY bit to do with it, watch the beatles anthology ep. 8,
They were just tired and making music together wanstng giving them the kicks they used to.

The Beatles anthology does not incluede the movie a Hard Days Night, it has a few clips of it tho

TheSeeker625 02-18-2005 09:10 PM

The Beatles broke up because you can't have that much talent in one recording studio. they were all very talented and wanted to do different things, so the breakup was inevitable.

Woodstock 02-19-2005 10:57 AM

Paul McCartney does have great basslines, not too difficult, but very creative.

HendrixLives316 02-19-2005 11:16 AM

I am not familiar with the Beatles but I am going to buy an album. Which should I buy

Woodstock 02-19-2005 11:18 AM

I would say Abbey Road or The White Album.

BlackDeathMetalJazz or really ANYTHING else please- 02-19-2005 11:23 AM

Seeing as you like Hendrix Im assuming you enjoy psychedelic music therefore you should get [I]Magical Mystery Tour[/I] other will say [I]Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Harts Club Band[/I] but I think MMT > SPLHCB.

I totally agree. While SPLHCB did a lot for music, MMT did a lot for the Beatles. In a lot of ways that album marked one of the Beatles biggest changes.

[QUOTE=Woodstock]Paul McCartney does have great basslines, not too difficult, but very creative.[/QUOTE]
Agreed. I love the ones in Ob-la-di Ob-la-da and Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.

Woodstock 02-19-2005 11:42 AM

His bass in Something is fantastic.

xxxRoCkJuNkiExxx 02-19-2005 03:11 PM

[QUOTE=Woodstock]His bass in Something is fantastic.[/QUOTE]

I definitely agree. I like the bass in Michelle too. It just fits so perfectly. And I also agree with whoever said MMT>SPLHCB. MMT and Rubber Soul are my current favorites.

Walrus Gumboot 02-19-2005 03:26 PM

[QUOTE=Woodstock]Paul McCartney does have great basslines, not too difficult, but very creative.[/QUOTE]

Exactly, I can play Something, but I couldn't have made it up. By any means.

Last Ditch Effort 02-19-2005 03:39 PM

[QUOTE=Woodstock]Paul McCartney does have great basslines, not too difficult, but very creative.[/QUOTE]
I totally agree. His bass licks are addicting.
I personally love the on in "Hello, Goodbye".

Seafroggys 02-19-2005 07:45 PM

Paul's best bass line is probably Rain, and I also love the slides on Dear Prudance.

Captain Jack Sparrow 02-19-2005 07:50 PM

I'm listening to "A Day In The Life" as we speak. Great song. My favorite Beatles album is by far Sgt. Pepper & The Lonely Hearts Club Band, followed by Help! and Revolver.

Woodstock 02-19-2005 07:57 PM

Yep, it's a great song.

Walrus Gumboot 02-19-2005 08:00 PM

[QUOTE=Seafroggys]Paul's best bass line is probably Rain, and I also love the slides on Dear Prudance.[/QUOTE]

I love rain, I just heard it for the first time last month. Its the first whole bass line (besides bluegrass, heh) that I figured out on my own, last Thursday. I was so proud of myself I can't even say. Maybe I should tab it :ponders:

Seafroggys 02-19-2005 08:24 PM

Rain is easily the most underrated Beatle song....its not on any of the original albums (it was the B-side to Paperback Writer) and since it didn't hit #1, its rarer and thus not a lot of people would get a chance to hear it (its on Past Masters). I was lucky to hear it early in my Beatles career, and I absolutly love it.

Walrus Gumboot 02-20-2005 01:10 PM

Its like a forgoten gem in the attic of Beatles songs, another great aong on the old "Hey Jude" album that never got brought to attention. It sounds like it was snipped off of Revolver

Walrus Gumboot 02-21-2005 03:44 PM

Where is everyone?

Any news on that tour?
