Next up, Gunther's in Northport on Friday, July 31st at 10 PM Don't Take Me Alive https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LA1_hoxPb14 Rikki Don't Lose That Number https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WmFPoN0PdQ&feature=youtu.be&app=desktop sonicus Senior Member Username: sonicus Post Number: 4361 Registered: 5-2009 Posted on Monday, July 20, 2015 - 11:04 am:    Todd , Great ! You have an awesome band . I am impressed at how well you sing and can play the bass well simultaneously.

As an example, the vocal chorus to Rikki is at odds with the bass line where I sing Rikki Don't Lose that Number and you can hear me pull of the vocal. Now that I know that, I'm working harder on muscle memory for the bass line. I notice Sting plays simpler bass lines live!
