1-2-X-U in 90 seconds - on bass!

No, I haven't gone all Spinal Tap / Big Bottom, I just happened to bust a string a couple of weeks ago and couldn't be bothered to fix it, hence the double bass.

Apparently this is the most covered punk song of all time. No surprise, it's got everything you need - there's no singing - just speaking and yelling, there's only 4 chords, you can play the bassline without moving your left hand, and the crowd can yell along. Plus it features the line 'smoking a fag' 15 years before Wayne and Waynetta. Genius.

I never worked out - is this song about sex, or filling in your pools coupon??

p.s. should mention - me on bass, treble, shouting, Steve Jobs on drums. Steve Jobs - what a rock star. WWDC Monday - can't wait.
