So, this is a cover of a song that every musician should learn. It's easy to learn, fun to play, known by everyone, and a hit at open mics and parties.
Anyway, some stuff about the video.
-This was recorded by running an XLR line out to USB. The quality sounds nothing like my amp, but it is tolerable.
-I DID NOT have the song in the background, it was overdubbed after the recording. This is because my webcam software can only take one sound input at a time, and I was using my PCs sound card to play the song, rather than recording from it. The sound IS out of sync by about half of a beat, and this is most noticable during the intro. I know :-/
-This was recorded after drinking 3 energy drinks. Ignore the tenseness and twitching :P
-The bass is a 2008 Fender P-Bass (modded) and the cab is a 1973 Peavey 215.
The intro is basically repeating one note throughout the whole thing, so skipping ahead might stop you from getting bored :-)
Anyone who has heard my last bass cover (For Whom the Bell Tolls) knows my recording was even worse quality, there was no video, and the song was not overdubbed after the recordig. That cover sucked. Horribly. So, I may re-record it.
Good song to practice finger timing with :)

@TraceBassPlayer Yeah, now I need to practice timing the song. I can't edit videos for my life. :P
