Sorry, very2 late posting of this pictures. Gomen :satisfied_nod:
Well, it's not everyday you can watch a gig dedicated to BASS...while you can see guitarist wanking (the fretboard) in any jam studio. :P
It's the 2nd part of Artistic Series where #1 are focus on guitars (held a while ago) & the 3rd one on drums (held yesterday, i was too broke to go :cry: ). AJ of Popshuvit, Alda of Cosmic Funk Express and Nakim (one hella good seasoned sessionist) were the main highlight of the night.
AJ were supposed to be joined by the whole Popshuvit gang but Rudy (the drummer) couldn't make it due to work commitment. So a Roland Loop Station became his bandmates hahaahha~ but later on, Jimmy from Tempered Mental & Boy join in the fun. AJ weapon of choice that night were a Fender Roscoe Beck V, Roland Cube 30 amp and his Roland Loop Station
Next, Alda and the boys of CFE entertain us with their usual funk fusion stuff...nothing that i never said before and as usual, very very very very the good one! Go check 'em or u miss something that so musicially awesome. Alda stuffed the groove with his usual Warwick Streamer Standard 5-stringer, Fender Highway 1 Jazz Bass, Boss ODB-3 Bass Overdrive, Ibanez Bass Chorus (eh, macam kenal jer dua ketoi effect nie hihihi) and Fender 60 watter amp.
Nakeem took the centrestage after with a 1976 Fender Jazz Bass with EMG turbo (hahaha), Ampeg SVT3 Pro head & SWR 2x10 Goliath Jr cabs (semua disponsor oleh Amir hahaha). Bergegar paler otak wa cakap lu...my head became very unstable through out his playing. But the tone was so god damn good although the treble a lil bit over :P Later that nite, he shift over to Warwick Thumb Bass 6 stringer.
Being a very music oriented gig, my very shallow music knowledge have prevented me to know what song/piece of music they actually playing (apart from CFE, which I'm a small time, not yet hardcore fan). But then I understand the most of techniques they used & I enjoy the ryhthm,grooves and harmony that they presented that night.
The best part of the gig of course were the jam ala G3! I love the Come Together cover...I just have no word to describe how great it was. :horay: And of course, it's good to see the familiar faces of Jamtank's bassist offline and chill out with them.
I arrived back at Putrajaya around 4am...talking about bass night out! LOL
