              Remember that joke that went:

              "What did the drummer say to get kicked out of the band?
              Hey, guys...I write songs, too!"


              Pretty much the same sort of thinking explains why bass guitarists don't usually attempt to play lead, and this track is further evidence of why the principle stands. That's me plunking away in my typical ham-fisted, wasted-Jimmy Page playing style. The idea was for each lick to "comment" on the end of every vocal, a direct rip-off from the opening of "Yankee Rose". Cheap Trick fans will recognize the bass line, which I stole lock, stock and barrel from "On Top of the World". Fortunately, no one else in the band had heard of that group or the song. I came up with the blues scale ending because quite frankly, I couldn't come up with anything else.

              Written as a joke, this was a throw-away song from our first album. Oddly enough, it went on to be about the only original song we ever got requests for.

                  Cool trashy rock & roll. A song about Poontang = win!
                  The riff and pace remind me of this tune. A fookin classic ,imo!

                            Considering some of the best drum work on the later Beatles material was actually Paul's doing, that might be a true statement from John

                              Thanks! Yup, that was the usual 121/57/D6 on the "Green 4x12" on each input, will bounce it to a stereo track later...reeeeally liking how it's sounding! I had a breakdown part I needed a bridge to put them together with, finally found it today. Gotta do leads next... but so far...

                              Again, thanks. That one (so far) is 100% the black Charvel mutt-Strat in the avatar...

                                Oh yeah, DJ...to answer your other question..only using the Boss CE-3 Chorus emulation in the Line 6 DL-4 ever-so subtly to get a spread between inputs 1 & 2, the only 'verb on it is coming off the Mesa on input 1. That's pretty much my straight-up live sound into the M-box. Only plugs-in on it are like the standard Pro Tools electric guitar EQs, like "Big Stack" or "Add Clarity" on the 57s and 121s, and the Air-Kill "lows only" EQ preset on the D6 tracks (since it's a kick drum mic anyway)...standard presets.

                                Thinking I need to build an isolation box for my cab so I can CRANK my head when using Recabinet...cool as the sound I'm getting is, I can tell my amp needs to be opened up a bit more...
