Sweaty, loud, Nicko Mc Brain...what more do you need?

Need Love

They don't make bass players like that anymore.

I defy you not to have this riff stuck in your head the rest of the day.

what is it with old farts thinking their music is better then the younger generations? im pretty sure their are plenty of bass players better then that dude.

ok, nikko plays the funk, got that. not for certain but brewer really thinks the other guy is Nigel from the band spinal tap. before both guys made it big.

GET OFF MY LAWN!!!!

pretty sure but you can't name any?

I'll tell you what's wrong with MOST bass players nowadays.....no frickin groove. Aping the rhythm guitar. No concept whatsoever of crafting a tone from their instrument. Over reliance on effects instead of their rig. Inability to improvise. I can go on of course...too many eigth notes, not enough whole notes and bends, not enough chords

...and for the record, Pat Travers was substantially before my time.

yeah, i dont know any of their names, i dont really care to "know" the bands....i just like to listen. i always thought it was creepy when people talked about band members like they knew them. kinda like stalkers. but, my favorite bass player is in the band TOOL. they kick ass!

snortin' whiskey, drinkin' cocaine. before my time as well

the problem brewer has seen in recent years is quite sad to say the least. the quality of modern "rock" music is so poor and awefull. it's very pathetic to see the teen generation litening to the black rap genre. there are no great bands in todays music, that keeps the youth of today rocking... wheres the Zeppilens of the 70s? the van halen/guns n roses of the 80s? the nirvana/pearl jams of the 90s?????

SAD,SAD AND SAD!!!

my point exactly......old farts and their music. dont get me wrong, i enjoy all of the music you just mentioned, but there is plenty of good music out there, you just need to know where to look.

Wow, that doesn't make you look like a racist at all...









Btw, you don't even know how to spell Zeppelin.

how does that make him look racist? he didnt say anything bad about any color of people, just that he doesnt like that music.....

Why use the word "black" at all, then?

EnglishPete agrees with Brewer, that is why EnglishPete listens to The Beastie Boys when he wants to feel like a man of the urban jungle.

basically thats what it is. i have a daughter who watches it, and guess what? it's black. if thats a racist remark then i am.... brewer was raised in northeast yakima, very close to boise plywood plant. was raised in close asociation with black people. played many a games of hoop with the blacks, many time i was the only white in the game. they baby sat my brothers and i. the 1st wife and i was married by a very black and respected minister..... brewer was taught by his his black friends very early on, "were not colored people! were black"

so yes bomb, black music plain and simple. as a final note brewer cares nothing that i mispell words, alot.

Brewer... Nico McBrain is the drummer, not the bass player in h2o's vid... before his Iron Maiden days.

Pat Travers rocked! I saw him live 4 or 5 times in the late 70's. Tommy Aldredge was playing drums for him by then and Pat Thrall was co-lead guitar. I always thought he took the Robin Trower vibe, sped it up and made it heavier.

Pat Travers' "Heat in the Street" album was his best, IMO. It was out before he became semi-popular with "Snortin' Whiskey" and "Boom Boom out go the Lights." The second song on it called "Killer's Instinct" was my favorite.

Sure they weren't Mexicans ? lol

Yeah baby! Mike Huckabee and the Little Rockers rock!

the bass player from primus is pretty kick ass. he rocks the stand up bass, and they have a song about fishing. cant remember what its called though....go figure.
