    Tom Verlaine Passes

    Don’t know what to say. Absolutely heartbreaking news. One of the reasons rock is cool. So sad. Tom Verlaine, Founder of Influential Punk-Era Band Television, Dies at 73

    Kiss on Tom Snyder show -- still cracks me up

    An oldie but a goodie, no matter how many times I see this, it still cracks me up. If you've never seen it, Ace Frehley was drunk on live network television and ended up stealing the show as he cracked up host Tom Snyder. You can see the steam coming out of Gene's ears... so stinkin' funny...

    Film & tv actors who resemble well-known bassists

    Every time I watch The Hunt For Red October, I think the guy who played a member of the Red October's crew looks like Pino Palladino. Anyone else know any other actors who resemble well-known bassists?

    Getting that sound: Television Marquee Moon

    Hi guys I'm wondering how to get this bass sound, it really cuts through the mix and holds everything together so well IMO... any tips would be massively appreciated!

    Tour Diary 2019 - TSWYCSOT

    TSWYCSOT = The Sixth Word You Can't Say On Television Which is the only way I can give you the band name here... After a years hiatus in 2017, while the singer did Spartan races (which is stupid, they don't run naked, and they aren't allowed to attack the other runners, that's not Sparta...)...

    LIVE FROM NEW YORK, IT'S...

    ... the funkiest bassist currently in TV!!! Saturday Night Live hasn't been good in years... but there's one thing that's definitely worth tuning in for -- James Genus. That guy SLAYS!!! If any bassist out there wants to be inspired, just tune in and listen to Genus play the opening theme...

    Anyone else on a Motörhead kick thanks to the ad on tv?

    There is a joke in my house that Acura spent a lot of money just to sell me another MDX by using Motörhead’s version of Sympathy for the Devil in their commercial. My response is that I know at least one other person - meaning @Killed_by_Death - who might be inspired by that ad. Well...

    Hell's Kitchen, Kitchen Nightmares.. etc (Gordon Ramsay)

    I've been binge-watching Gordon Ramsey shows. Actually have been enjoying them/him for several years. In the last couple days though, I've been glued to seasons/episodes of Hell's Kitchen in particular. This practice has been getting in the way of my sleep, having me up until 3am and even later...
