Influences
Melodic, tasteful, accomplished bass playing. When in a band I don't hide behind a low level bassy mush to hide inadequacies or please another band member (please insert your choice) with cloth ears.
Ring any bells?! If you've been doing this for a while, you'll know exactly what I mean.
A good selection of influences would be, in no particular order: John Entwistle, Bruce Foxton, John-Paul Jones, JJ Burnel, Norman Watt-Roy, Stax and 'Duck' Dunne, Classic '60s & '70s Ricky and P-Bass sounds.
Members Of Band
Neil: Bass
Pete: Drums
Carl: Guitar
Dave: Guitar
Mick: Vocals
All present and ship-shape. No more thanks (well maybe keys).
Thanks to everyone who showed an interest during the auditions process. Most of you showed up when you said you would, and some of you left without paying: you know who you are, but hey, I guess you don't care...singers!!
EQUIPMENT
Warwick Corvette $$ 4-string; Vester Clipper Thumb Bass copy (bought as an impoverished student); Ashdown ABM 500 amp + ABM 2x10 & ABM 4x10 cabs.
Also own all my own fingers, a sense of humour, the odd pick and the ability to listen to what the song needs.
