I know someone who is an utter liability
Once when travelling he was sharing a mixed dorm somewhere in the far east. One fateful night he and his travelling companion went out and got horribly drunk, before stumbling back and passing out in their beds.

Travelling companion has, it seems, had a little too much and in the middle of the night his bladder let out and he pissed himself. Annoying for him, certainly, however it was more annoying for the French girl in the bunk below who got an impromptu golden shower.

This annoyed her, but she brushed herself down and flipped her mattress onto the floor on the other side of the room and retreated to the land of nod. that is until, the my friend in his drunken state knelt up in his bed, whipped out his nob and pissed all over her again, before passing out. poor, poor girl, at least she was French and probably used to the smell.

Tell me about when you've soiled yourself either urinally, feacally or vomitously

I've never had the pleasure of playing one, I must confess
I've always been put off by the position of the pickup though: I've never really taken to bridge-position pickups on basses. However this is doubtless a bias from years of playing a Precision copy, and I know you can get variants with a 2nd pickup. Probably shouldn't knock it until I've tried it.

and the necks are very nice.

I can't say I have enough experience on the bass to have considered pickup position
(, Wed 7 Apr 2010, 12:10, Reply)
My other bass
has neck and bridge pickups. I guess it depends what sound you're after, but I've found that for all the combinations of sounds it produces, the only worthwhile one is the neck pickup alone. Though it does have a much smaller body and neck profile than a Precision or a Stringray, so that might have something to do with it.

(, Wed 7 Apr 2010, 12:22, Reply)
They are a delight in that respect
Really easy to get your hands around. Still, every band I've played with has said they preferred the sound of the Precision to the Aria. Again, maybe it's just down to playing style, but the Aria just doesn't have quite the same clout to it. Still lovely to play though...
(, Wed 7 Apr 2010, 12:30, Reply)
I think
the fundamental divide here Monty is that you need some level of 'cool' in a standardly defined sense from your rock icons, whereas I don't as such. And while I'm hardly an authority on Hendrix apart from his music I think he's a bit of a twat (unsure what tense to use there.)
(, Wed 7 Apr 2010, 11:44, Reply)
I cannot actually believe I'm reading this.
Hendrix (upon whom I really am something of an authority) had some weaknesses - he found it hard to say no to people and was easily pushed around, but I challenge you to find a single account of a contemporary of his saying anything other than that he was a really, really nice, shy, pleasant man.

He also had more talent in his little toe than pretty much any other musician that I'm aware of. Maybe Miles Davis was as able, but I know nothing of him or his work, I confess.
(, Wed 7 Apr 2010, 11:47, Reply)
But Monty
it's personal opinion. What I've read (obviously I'm too young to have seen him) and what I've heard simply strikes no chords.
I think that was a bad pun, but anyhow the point stands. My grounds for rejecting Hendrix as a personal icon (though obviously musically brilliant) are personal ones.
(, Wed 7 Apr 2010, 11:52, Reply)
It's a personal opinion, but it's one
I share with every single person who has ever had anything to say about the man.

I'm thinking about it
and I can't recall ever hearing anyone say anything about his personality (other than you of course)

this may shock you Monty, but while I obviously have an appreciation of how awesome he was, aside from a select few, I don't really care to listen to his stuff.
(, Wed 7 Apr 2010, 12:00, Reply)

Pretty much this. Sorry Monty but being in complete agreement with everyone else simply isn't cool remember ;)
(, Wed 7 Apr 2010, 12:02, Reply)
That's a daft remark.
I've based my opinions on years of researching contemporary accounts, you've classed him as a 'twat' based on, it seems, nothing at all.
(, Wed 7 Apr 2010, 12:13, Reply)
I don't
like him enough to do research into him. I don't think anything about him seemed especially likable or decent or warranting further enquiry into someone whose music while as I said brilliant, leaves me emotionally cold and un-connected with it
(, Wed 7 Apr 2010, 12:16, Reply)
As a guitarist I'm really surprised to hear you say that.
I could watch him perform or listen to his records all day long. To my ears his work creates almost a year 0 for rock, like years BC or AD. The studio innovation and stylistic variety in his output, not to mention the technical ability simply amazes me.

Each to their own, of course. When my father played me Hendrix when I was about 7 or 8 I was floored. No-one since has affected me anywhere near as much.
(, Wed 7 Apr 2010, 12:12, Reply)
it's not that I don't like it, or appreciate how good it is
and there are a number of his songs that I really really love.

I think it is probably the case that I don't know enough of his stuff, and the ones I do know are the obvious ones which get overplayed.

I've only thrown up from drinking too much a handful of times
and all but one were in the safe confines of the bathroom, neatly into the toilet like the ladylike creature I am.

The unfortunate other time was when I was 16 and I'd gone out drinking for the first time and discovered that Smirnoff Ice tastes just like lemonade. I obviously had no concept of my tolerance and vommed up my friend's dining room wall. Her boyfriend at the time thought a lot of himself and said he would help clean it up, but didn't want to get vomit on his shirt, so he took it off, displaying his pride and joy six pack. I vommed on him.

Then I vommed in the sink but the plug was in so one of the other lads had to reach in and unplug it. I wasn't very popular at the time.

Salmonella once from eating a dodgy reheated burger at a fuckawful pub on the Isle of Man. My father, being the alcoholic knobhead he was, refused to take me to the hospital as it would cut in to his drinking time, even though his daughter had turned in to some sort of hideous cannon-from-both-ends special effects machine. He only relented when I started shitting blood and was so dehydrated and manky I couldn't move. And even then he bunged me in a taxi and stayed in the pub.
It was quite possibly the least fun I've ever had in my life.
