Oh Yeah, I've been playing for two years. I like classic funk stuff like Louis Johnson (From the Brothers Johnson) and old classic funk stuff. I don't like Flea or that loser from Primus, both are good technical players but lack the serious musiciansmansip that the old folks had.

Thats awesome. I've been playing for about 6 months. Have you had the problem of not being able to find and VH tabs??
If you have any do you think you could send me a copy?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks

I don't play Bass but I came across some interesting news about this band Gov't Mule. http://mule.net/
Their bass player Allen Woody died last year & their coming out with this new album that's going to have 25 bass players on it. If you've never heard of Gov't Mule, they're like "Heavy Blues". Imagine the Allman Brothers on steroids, that's Gov't Mule. Allen Woody was an amazing player, hard to describe, kinda like a Billy Sheehan to the blues/hippie world.
