Times Like These - Foo Fighters Bass Cover

[Telyn305]

Great playing man. Your video helped me to learn the song myself.

[Wiilly97]

Guys, Using a pick is either for preference or what the style of music needs, doesn't make you shit because you use one.. I personally use both techniques for whatever I'm playing, Disturbed bassist uses one and I'd love to see you try 'Inside The Fire'. Also he said Nate had a sticker on his bass saying 'Real Men Use Picks'..it was never said by @pflykyle so don't jump down his throat, cmon I'm 15 and I understand perfectly.

[ToguroKun]

Yeah, it's cool if they use fingers or pick, as long as they play bass they're cool.

...But to say that "real men use picks??" I can't find the words to describe how stupid that is...

[iamgoinkickuindanuts]

a pic is just another style

just because you use a pic doesn't make you a worse player

get over it

[Simmeringtim]

Why are you playing on the neck as opposed to near the bridge or pickups?

[thelowend77]

@Simmeringtim dude, listen to that tone man!! That is so PHAT! Playing on the neck does that. Great cover, nice improv, great tone, lovely bass, and my word, your sofa looks comfy!! Bravo pal, Bravo

[LOKTAM22]

Nice cover man!

[KyleEsmonde]

I'm looking to get into playing bass, this has inspired me! 

[oompaemp]

He even sorta does the awkward sway that Nate does :D

[marceboy73]

Awesome cover mate.

[selly24]

nice bro



[sullstar07]

What strings are you using??

[fulgoristic]

You sir, suck.

[thelowend77]

@fulgoristic knob. That is all

[Ahalo3fan]

Last time I checked, using a pick or fingerstyle doesn't affect how awesome the Bassist is. 5*

[FreakinKoolMedia]

picking on the fretboard....really?

[thelowend77]

@FreakinKoolMedia could you not hear that lovely warm P bass tone??

[MikeBenzino]

Fantastic job, mate! Keep it up. =D

[TheM79blooper]

doves - firesuite in the background when the foo's song finishes nice lol

[km9OOO]

Awesome job, and very smooth. I wish I could nail those fills.

[elpndl94]

ya he is right, i dont like that much using pick, but if you want to do a cover of a foo fighters song on bass you ought to use pick dude, btw nice cover

[BenBroPro]

i got a bass for christmas and i have started learning this song on tab, i really didnt get the bit at 3:00 but seeing you play it really helps :) thankyou and you rock :D

[lovedrive3]

pinche joto no uses puaaaaaaaaaaa

[pflykyle]

nate mendel always uses a pick. always.

[lawalterallen29]

@pflykyle Not always, certain songs he doesn't :)

[pflykyle]

@lawalterallen29 i know. but almost always. im pretty sure he had a sticker on his bass when he was in sdre that said "real men use picks".

[lawalterallen29]

@pflykyle Haha that's really funny if he did

[maximoguitar16]

@pflykyle LOL?

[ebaymotion]

@pflykyle

He ALWAYS uses one. Only blues bassists don't use them, like Giddy Lee.

[Boisits13]

@ebaymotion Only blues bassist don't use them?

Get your self educated man, a lot of bassist don't use picks dude.

[ebaymotion]

@Boisits13

Ok, bass master. I forgot you know everything involving music.

[Boisits13]

@ebaymotion Yeah, i do. Next time, don't let yourself comment ignorant crap.

[EasternRegionspotter]

@ebaymotion bullshit im sorry

[thelowend77]

@ebaymotion normally funk players are the finger style masters, however, amongst others, have you ever watched Steve Harris of Iron Maiden play? not my kinda music really, but that guy plays finger style, and has some very very fast B lines

[JobenPruitt]

@pflykyle I actually don't think ive ever recalled Nate using a pick. And im a bassist and i dont use a pick. It just depends on what music you play. I would have to re-arrange your quote and say "Real men play bass".

[FreakinKoolMedia]

@lawalterallen29 ALWAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! except twice

[FreakinKoolMedia]

@pflykyle ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLWWAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSS

[PepeCaseres]

@lovedrive3 Agh por que tienen que hablar como rateros estos tipos, respeto por el lenguaje, y no, esa cancion fue grabada con Pick por que no habria de usarse?

[raylisales]

I'm searching like a crazy for this tab, but a I cannot find it. Could you send me this tab? Guitar pro would be greater!

[clint772]

class where did u get the bass plz????

[pflykyle]

It's actually a 75 or 76 P-Bass. I changed the hardware and neck, as they were pretty worn. Kept that classic pickup though.

[CoMKrew47]

nice cover!

I personally like it better than the cover i posted.

Keep it up!
