Not a bad job at all. This is one of my favorite songs to play, though it really helps to have a 5-string for this. If you cleaned it up a tad, this would sound pretty slick, especially on your rig.
0:48 ok i cant hear anymore...why you posting this sloppyness? why? do you think your bass sounds good? Tone? where's those beer cans in the shot...cause your out of it
Well, you can file this heckle under the "fail" category. You are the stalker who comes here fairly regularly to stir shit. I know you because you are the only prick who focuses only on 311...most normal hecklers hit different bands. You created this account today just to comment on these two videos. It is your only activity... and it is because I blocked your ass before. You cannot manufacture consensus by creating more accounts, stalker-boy. It just makes you look pathetic.
Heh... those first few slaps always sneak up on me too. And I don't even play bass. :P
Also, from "P-Nut, change it up, watch out for your mind, watch out" to when the guitar comes in, does the riff change just a little? I always thought it did...
Man, man, man. This was some awesome schtuff. Sometimes I watch a video and it just lifts me up a bit. And that one did. Thanks man. That effin' rocks. I'll watch it a lot, heh.
Holy f... You like 311, too?! Man, our tastes, they be as mirrors! Lovin' this rendition, I often fail to appreciate how nice P-nut's playing is being distracted as I am by Mahoney's always inventive riffs. And you energy while playing is great to watch, despite what the bassischtapo say. I'll be watching you from now on.
This is great. I haven't listened to 311 in years, but after this you know I'll be digging up my old CDs. Are Schecter basses super nice? Thats the only brand of guitar I've really liked for a reasonable price.
I love my Schecter.....a wonderful instrument to compliment my Rick because the sound is the exact opposite as the Rick. I agree completely about the price, as well. Is it super-nice? It is if you set it up correctly for your fingers, which I did the day I got it (I like low action).
You never fail to amaze me! Damn man. You are my new white whale! I would hate you for being so good, but you seem like such a damn nice bloke that i'd feel bad.
Gee....thanks! It is one awesome tune, and I am glad that you liked it. I always get nervous when I put up my versions of these toughies....when you are an ear player, you have no idea if it is "right".
The next tune is 4 and a half minuntes long, so I know it would take forever to make a video for it. Not sure what to do, but I have ideas. The song is pretty silly, but not as short and one-dimensional as the vowel song.
Spot on man. I couldn't tell the difference between your riffs and P-nut's (if there is any). I'd like to think my suggestion inspired you to finally record this song (as you said you had thought about it and it seems other suggested it before.) Keep rockin' man and hopefully you put up some of your original tracks.
True that-I love to play it, but always have a tough time. Grassroots is, in my opinion, one of the best things 311 has done. As always, looking forward to more!
Absolutely awesome. Even if you didn't get the end riff completely right, it still sounded soulful.
