Anyone who can play Roger Allcocks basslines to his backing track "Beautiful Heart" is very welcome to come along next Sunday to show me how. I've tried for 2 weeks and have just managed 4 bars. I thought you're supposed to repeat yourself when playing bass? Maybe I'll join another club.

Regards, Luigi

Perhaps you will have to ask young Roger if he can show you how, anyway i didn't think you would give up that easy, and what hope does that give me if you are going to teach me bass and give up the quickly, i think we will have to have a long chat about this on Sunday over a nice cup of coffee, sounds good to me.

ps Bob says he thinks it's more than two chords? see you Sunday

You will have to blame Lennart Clerwall the composer for the basslines on that one Luigi !

See you on Sunday.

Roger just sent you an e-mail, and i think Luigi is just making excuses i think he's been playing with his car's instead of his guitars, i think we will have to get to the truth on Sunday Roger :lol:
