If you ask me Hysteria would have sounded better played on straight bass. Straight up balls-rocking low end riff. With the effect, its cool, but it sounds so produced. Just give me da bass, mon.

EDIT: squared actually. I think I'd call him my favorite bass player.

Geddy Lee, man.

No, that's not my favorite bass player. Could be because I've barely listened to him.

Okay, you're not too keen on the magnificent Red Hot Chili Peppers, but have you actually ever seen Flea play bass?

Not really looked. But I've heard a few RHCP songs, and I've never thought much of them. And since I determine my favorites in different parts of music by the music they produce, and not their technical proficiency (the fret olympics on youtube will be better anyway) I doubt he's my favorite.

Not a fan of RHCP but Flea on bass is just...epic

My earplugs just came in the mail. Ordered some industrial-grade coned ones with a hollow tip, really snazzy stuff...supposed to reduce sounds, not block it, preserves the levels and frequencies and all that.

Cost me more than I'd like to pay for a little pair of earplugs but I tried them in and they fit my ears like a glove, can't wait to try them out at shows.

Also, once they go in, they're invisible, which is pretty sweet. Can't see I'm wearing them at all

The mail that Royal Mail couldn't fit through the door was actually a vinyl. It was Thriller, the album! For £3.50 too, bargain!
