Here's what he had to say: >>Quick question for ya - with regards to the comment abooot Johnny M using an >>8-string bass, will this be a double-strung bass (kinda like a 12-string >>guitar) or is it like his 6 string with 2 additional (higher and/or lower?) >>strings. Inquiring minds would like to know. > > >It is the former...(there is no such thing as the latter).... >It really is not as big of a deal as everybody might be making it out to be! >He only used it on half a song (on my urging so, no less) and 8 string basses >are not that uncommon....Doug Pinnick (King's X), Monty Colvin (Galactic >Cowboys) and the bass player from Cheap Trick are a few bass players who >immediately come to mind who regularly used 8 (or even 12) string basses.. >MP > >Feel free to take this response if the question keeps reappearing!

The same shitty places that I play with >my "unknown" band!! Well, think about it. They probably barely even break even for doing the tour, and that's using rented gear.

I think Cradle of Filth has a pretty big following, as does extreme metal in general down here. BTW. saw Eric Johnson and the Hellecasters dudes on Wednesday. Great great stuff. Actually I preffered the Hellecaster's to Eric a bit, hadn't seen them play before but they were really good. Also saw the John Butler Trio on Sunday. If you have the opportunity to see this guy- see him! It was one of the best concerts Ive been to. He is an amazing guitarist. Imagine all the talent of the Doors/Pearl Jam condensed into one man. Long, intricate songs and this huge incredible sound. > And I would certainly hazzard a guess that sales wise, Cradle Of Filth and Nevermore > do more than DT here. > ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 26 May 2001 11:47:15 -0500 From: "Shadow Mage" To: ytsejam@torchsong.com Subject: Re: in case anybody is wondering abooot JM's 8 string bass Message-ID: Yeah, I knew Conklin did an 8-Stringer, and I think a couple of other companies do so also. I think Bill "Buddha" Dickens even used a 9-String bass on tour with Bobby Rock. But 8(or more)-String basses that are not doubled up do exist. --96 ><>It is the former...(there is no such thing as the latter).... http://www.conklinguitars.com/Sidewinder_8.htm>< _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 26 May 2001 18:29:02 -0400 From: email_address_removed To: Subject: Rates DROPPED!

Ranging from prog rock to metal to classic and hard rock and 80s stuff, all of my 2gb of napster files and 400 plus CDs are at my disposal and I am bored, so what the hell. To listen, either go to http://www.nhbradio.com and click the listen link or point winamp or real player 8 to 64.152.82.190:21944. -- Damon Fibraio Musician, comedian, lover, and public menace email email_address_removed aol instant messenger screenname: nhblive MSN Messenger screenname: dfibraio Yahoo messenger name: Damon_m_f, web site: http://frontpage.home.net/dfibraio/ coHost of No Holds Barred Radio: see http://www.nhbradio.com for details Band sites: Awake: http://www.geocities.com/awake6am: Mystified: http://www.mystified2001.com "All of us get lost in the darkness, dreamers learn to steer by the stars, All of us do time in the gutter, dreamers turn to look at the cars, Turn around and walk the razor's edge."--Neil Peart of Rush, The Pass ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 27 May 2001 13:20:05 +1000 From: "Paul Tadday" To: Subject: Re: DT in pub gig?! Message-ID: <000701c0e65c$27f19f60$db3836cb@PaulTadday> When I use the term "pub" I'm talking about moderately large venues. Never underestimate Melbourne pubs! Hehehe... The Melbourne pub/club scene is the music capital of Australia and alot of the pubs here are quite large! In particular I'm thinking of the Palace venue here in Melbourne which looks similar to the venues that DT play judging by the tour pics on the dvd. That is a 1500 - 2000 people venue from what I can tell. I've seen bands there including Fear Factory, Kreator, Cradle Of Filth, Anthrax, Skid Row, Malmsteen, Soulfly, A Perfect Circle and heaps of others including Mike Portnoy when he did his drum clinic in '94 I think it was. It would by no means be any smaller than the venues that they normally play. ----- Original Message ----- ]From: Awake . > > Well, think about it.
