Bassasaurus Newsletter

The Colorado Bass Newsletter


Important Note - Updated 08/16/07

Well, finally!! I hooked up with my old pals - and guess what kids... I am back into music for what I started wanting to be in music for...

Playing music I love...

With people I love.

The lineup is:

Mr. Jimmy Burns on drums.

Ms. La Davis on vocals.

Mr. Steve Bane on guitar, keys and vocals

HEY STEVE!!! Love ya Bro!

And last but not least:

Quiet... drum roll please...

Mr. Mark Graski, lead guitar and vocals.

Oh - and lil' old me on bass

This is going to be SO fun! See you soon!!!!

Quiet now...

Should have some more new stuff up soon.

Been pretty busy... homework, job, house... cat, will be uploading some photos soon... hope everyone is doing great...till then

OK - yes some of this stuff is gettin' a bit old and I was gonna remove it - but I got an email the other day from someone who just stumbled into the site and said "Thanks" - so - I guess it will stay - I'll be trying to do some up-dating and all that - bear (er.. bare..um..er.. beer...?) with me now...

Thanks... Rob

Like, neon!

Finally found Wyzard from Mothers Finest... I suggest you check him out at your earliest convienence. "Another Mother Further" is a good album to start with... Wickedly powerful. Amazingly tight live. Go get it now.

Hey - I just got a CD from KIRWAN BROWN

"Sightings" ... Talk about cool! Sitting here digging it now...

Thanks Kirwan.... appreciate it. Great tone, you can actually

hear the up, down & thumbs -- quality mix, expansive tone,

superlative bass playing. BUY IT!..... NOW!

Saw Victor recently w/ the solo tour- wow! - Can't believe the

lesson I recieved! Solos from all , some better than others

But, the show lasted 3 hours 45 min. Talk about "flat-out-

forget-it-all-groove-by-the-skin-o-your-teeth-monkey-your-ass-up-and

funk-forever-til-you-pass-out-or-die-trying-super-slap=O=rama-rific

-baby-how-HAVE-u-been-bet-u-gotta-back-up-n-read-it-again!!!

What a rule breaking JAM!...(RL)

I DUG IT - took a non player with me and his comment was

"That Victor Wooten guy did a solo that I never seen before,

it was unique, I can't explain it. Never thought a bass player

could make that kind of noise (a compliment). I thought the melody

came from the big guitar, like Vai, Eddie ect., and now I have

more respect for the ability of the bass player to bring the whole

sound together, focus it."

Thanks Robert Medina for the insight.

Rated: 5 Floppy-headed-groove-things!

Anyway...

Hello & welcome! I started this newsletter (in 1995 with a 6 page book on HTML) so I wouldn't be hunched over my bass all day.

Now I can crouch over a keyboard a few hours a month!

Hope you enjoy them.
