What is a Living Room Rock God (LRRG)? Anyone who takes their rockin' seriously, but does so at home. There are thousands of us all over the world, and the best place to watch a collection of LRRG specimens is on youtube. This channel is dedicated to LRRGs everywhere, and if my fellow LRRGs wish to drop a line or steal stuff off of me, go for it

Now there is an LRRG website (pooklowend started it....about 200 members now. Tthis is where you "sign up" if you wish to be an official LRRG):

I have a dozen or so videos of Primus and Rush on youplayalong.com under the channel name "Zodiak"

My musical history is vast but greatly uninteresting. I started playing in my bedroom at 13 and played in bands through most of my 20's. Sufficed to say, I have not been in a band in the longest time, and when I was playing out, an attendance of 100 people was considered exceptional. In short, I am a musical nobody and I am comfortable in those shoes.
About Me:
 
I'm a dude sitting in his living room playing bass covers into his computer using a Digitech BP-80 processor and a M-Audio Fast-track direct recorder. Sometimes I record an original or two and make vids for them, as well. I have two basses: a 1974 Rickenbacker 4001 model (named "Priscilla") and a 2007 Schecter Stiletto Elite 4 (named: "Wulfgang"), both strung with Dean Markley Blue Steels (medium-light gauge).

Record Label:
LRRG Vids
Label Type:
Unsigned
Band Members:
Me on bass, sometimes other instruments
Influences:
I play by ear, so please do not ask me for tabs...I don't use any. Also, I do not play Metallica (because of Napster, basically), Pantera...or cliche' bass show-off stuff like "YYZ" or "The Awakening" (although I do the not-so-cliche' show-off stuff). Please understand that I am a tempermental artist, and as such, I'm weird about these rules of mine.

great covers man! you should do some Yes tunes, like the roundabout or something. chris squire is a bass god

If you find a moment of time, simply search YouTube for the new Dethklok song "The Gears." It is easily one of the best Dethklok songs ever, featuring awesome basslines amongst excellent guitar work and the growling vocals we've grown to love from Dethklok. I love the first record, but, simply put, the new one literally kicks that one's ass.

I'm thoroughly surprised that you haven't done any Yes covers. You'd kick ass at something like Heart of the Sunrise or whatever your favorite of theirs to play happens to be.

you right thank for the great music

Well, then, lucky for you that I will never charge for such a thing. Music should be free. By chance, have you heard my latest original? It's kind of like a Hamburger Train style instrumental. It is stored on LRRGtube. You can go to my "American Bass Player in Norwich" video to get a direct download link there.

Other than that, when I get the time, I will do more. It just takes a lot of work because I have to play everything, and frankly, I am only decent at bass.

You cover of Dawn Patrol is awesome. I just leanred how to play it today.
zodiakironfist (3 days ago)
And it saddens me that I have to say no to you guys, too.  There is a glimmer of hope, though....I did break my vow not to play YYZ in order to play it for a collaboration. Not everything is immutable.

He already stated that he would never do Metallica.
I already asked him and he said no.
