They have only been up here like twice. I have never seen them live, but the shows got great reviews. Portland has some awesome small venues that are perfect for a band like Cake.
I want to see them live.
Looking at their tour dates it just looks like they set up show at places they want to visit. Lucky bastards.
Isn't that what being a rockstar is all about? Visit cool places and bang hot chicks. Sort of the same reasons I joined the Navy, only the pay sucked.
Best bass line(s)...sheesh....there are so many....
Actually, one of the best I've ever heard was by a bassist on the Lizzy Borden song, "There Will Be Blood Tonight".
Then, there's "To Tame a Land", Iron Maiden. And since we're talking maiden, there are so many, but "Phantom of the Opera" and "Afraid to Shoot Strangers"....
Ok, then, there's Sting and The Police, "Synchronicity II", the bass guitar is subtle, but REAL effective....
Rush, "Red Barchetta", and "The Trees"

Rush, "Red Barchetta", and "The Trees"
Yeah, just listen to "Red Barchetta", and I would have to say its one of my favorites as far as bass lines
I haven't listened to Rush in years, but that is one of my favorites right there. I bought a bootleg "Chronicles" video in the UAE (desert storm, '91) that was awesome.
OK, RElistened....

Jerry was a racecar driver - Primus
Sabotage - Beastie Boys
Opening to Toys go winding down(and the rest of the song too) - Primus.
I just picked up the bass this year. Hopefully, I'll reach superstar status later this month....

what kind
Public Image Ltd - "Public Image"
Jah Wobble is the man.
Jah Wobble is the man.
DJ Magic Mike - "This Is For The Bassheads (3 min. bass drop)
It's like.... BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM, for 3 minutes.
But, seriously, how about "The Recluse" by Cursive. I was noticing how funky it was the other day.

Probably asking what kind of bass.
"I Was Made To Love Her" - Stevie Wonder
FTW!!!
FTW!!!
yup it goes something to the tune of boooooooooooooooooooooooooooom. about mid way my smart tag fell off the windshield, then that rattled and it continued to go boooooooooooooooooooooooom
and since we are on ridiculous bass like that
Concord Dawn- shinkansen
Diesel Boy - project human faster stronger
3 6 Mafia- late night tip, slob on my knob
fabolous- cant deny it
lamb of god- redneck, foot to the throat
Enya- Orinoco flow
If it hasn't been said yet (and probably by me) - the bass solo in "Stay Clean" by MOTORHEAD.
These two were the first that came to mind...
The base line isn't as obvious but the Sanford and Son theme is pretty bad ass.
Agreed!!!

lady venom is such an awesome song i havent heard in forever.
the clash - guns of brixton
Oh. It's an Ibanez SRX700 4 string.Probably asking what kind of bass.
I know Geddy has already been mentioned a few times, but one of my favorite bass lines of his is from Driven on Test for Echo.
Gyasi Went Home by Bedouin Soundclash (
) is definitely catchy.
"Innocent Exile" - Iron Maiden
Every Tool song ever.
As a bassist I would say that joe jackson had a great one and marshall crenshaw did as well. It's not about 10,000 notes in 4 minutes running up and down the neck. It's about hitting the mood.
Oh, and in terms of entwhistle, we saw him from the front row back in the 80's - amazing.
Iron Maiden - Aces High (Steve Harris is a beast and my top bass idol)
It's bloody hard to play at speed, too. Somehow I still manage it, though...
anywho, a few others:
Funk The World - Toast Machine (drum/bass band, I know the bassist, he's crazy good. Bass plays the lead and rhythm parts. it's awesome.)
My Name Is Mud - Primus (Les Claypool... 'nuff said)
Come Together - The Beatles (not amazingly difficult but nice and fun to play)

So true. The bassline for "Is She Really Going Out With Him?" gets stuck in my head for days at a time and I haven't even heard the song in years. Greatness in simplicity.
