Ok i need help from everyone in the bass forum...not many people, but anyway, i have to do a 2 minute - 3 minute piece on bass to get a good grade, but i havent got a clue what to play, i was thinking anesthesia by metallica but, its just too high, and non-bassy to the music teacher anyway..any suggestions, cheers!

Beers up!

well, punk songs usually have very prominent bass lines.........
thats 3 minutes right there........

Try Al Jarreuas - Boogie Down. OK, it´s not Metal, but it´s a cool bass riff. I can give you the notes (capella2002)/ tab.
It´s quite fast and it´s damn impressive. So you´ll get a good mark.

__________________

some stuff from red hot chilli peppers is also pretty cool, around the world is cool to play, but the intro takes some practise...

you just have to play a piece? not exactly solo stuff or what??

play rancid's maxwell murder...but add parts in cause its under 3 mins

Yeah Ive know that song for ages dude, its a cool piece, i was thinking of playing rancid's - Journey to the end of the east bay, cos that has a cool riff, anyway cheers, ill check out that song Metalpoldi

If you can´t find it, I could upload it. Don´t be surprised: it´s an keyboard-bass-riff. But it´s nice to play and sounds good on bass. I love to play it with my Jazz-Combo. Quite funky.

Yeah a 3 minute piece anything, solo, any genre, from ska-punk to death metal, but i just needed a few suggestions, cos i didnt have a clue what to play..

Ok, i upload it as soon as "slayme´s-ftp" is up again.
Or i could send it to you via ICQ (144130757).
Do you have the program "Capella"? I´ve got the notes for it.
