Basshole Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 First off not talking about our dem00n Ok so Ive been somewhat watching these youtube videos of the Gene's bass solo and John's bass solo. If you look at the comments you can see what people are saying about gene. ok, lets get one thing straight. Gene is the biggest hack, I know garage bassist who can play better than he can. He is just playing that typical blues bass harmoney somewhat fast. BUT gosh he looks cool doing, he is getting the crowd involved and he is ruuning all over the place. Thats cool, He is entertaining and the crowd is feeding off that Now you look at John Wow, he is doing some crazy things on bass, he has great tone, and he has great super technical ability. But he is stiff as plank of wood. The crowd is most likely a bunch of bassists trying to learn a thing or two *sarcasim*. People have been trying to compare the two and you can't Gene=Entertainer John=Bassist
dem00n Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 Oh...im going with john...more passion in his playing. Someone should make a Cliff VS Robert topic now...lol.
hans Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 Bass solos are tiresome... actually most guitarsolos are tiresome.
Mr. Robot Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 don't forget drum solos. They were all the fashion in the 1970's. They are gone now, thank goodness.
Basshole Posted April 21, 2009 Author Posted April 21, 2009 bass solos need to need to have some type of medlodic melody to them or they have to be superfast for people to like them.
