7. LOL

OMG at work the other day - I left my glasses on the desk of a coworker I conferred with - a young guy. When I retrieved them, he said, "You should get one of those...." - then he just stopped. So I yelled, "OLD LADY (glasses) CHAIN?? IS THAT WHAT YOU WERE GOING TO SAY? I WILL KICK YOUR ASS!!!". That poor guy. :rofl:

14. Happy Birthday!

Here's a great blues tune for you to enjoy on your birthday:

[bluesbassman]

15. Thanks blue neen! Great tune!

Did you know that Bonnie Bramlett was the first caucasion to sing with the Ikettes?

[blue neen]

16. I didn't know that.

There were so many Ikettes, it would be hard to name them all!

What else are you listening to for your birthday?

[bluesbassman]

20. Actually I've been trying to work out the bassline for this one.

Bad Case Of Love
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ro9WdeGrsM

One of the tunes for my new band. The walk is easy enough, but there's a solo in the middle and I'm trying to come up with something interesting. :)

[blue neen]

26. I loved the bass solo...it was sweet.

Maybe it's my computer, but the bass line was a little light. Maybe you could for a little heavier sound on the solo? It's so worth hearing... :)

[bluesbassman]

27. I agree.

I'm actually going to use a pick rather than my fingers on this one to give it a little more punch. We're a guitar based band (no keyboard) and our overall sound is a little on the heavy side anyway, so I think the bass line and solo will need to step up a little more than BB's studio version. It'll be fun.

17. Happy, bluesy birthday to you!

Play it on home.

[bluesbassman]

22. Thanks blogslut! Take 'em to the bridge!
