   • woah! . Have you heard crossroads on One More From the Road by Lynyrd Skynyrd? Really inappropriate double bass drums near the end are incredible. It sounds like Dave Lombardo just joined in.

   • you better believe it.
     
     jack...whilst you were in chicago i wrote a song entitled "sampson" which is gonna kick you arse. it's full of lumbering survivor-esque riddums and slap bass and a vocal harmony i pinched off "africa" by toto.
     
     the vocals deal with freedom and the cold war. sampson is a metaphor for nuclear weapons...the lyrics are obviously deeply anti-communist as i am going to be singing from a "free market" point of view. lyrical content will be slightly homoerotic.
     
     the video will feature product placement for pepsi, budweiser, burger king, nike and general motors and will feature chicks with guns and a soft focus judo match.

   • you're w3elcome guys. i'm really looking forwards to recording it. jack you get to play a guitar solo so radical that people won't be able to take it. i suggest you listen to something neo-classical to get you in the frame of mind.
     
     i will test wills' "mettle" by assessing his slap bass skills and making notes on a clipboard. he will feel "under pressure" i'm sure so i will try and make the proceedings more lighthearted by wearing a comedy tie with elephants in red sneakers hiding behind strawberry bushes on it.
     
     simon comes in for a cheeky saXX solo at the end and blows the whole thing apart.

   • ha ha! I actually have a deep-seated hatred for slap bass, which is why I put flatwounds on my basses for years. I cant wait! I'm hoping it's going to be like smelling my own farts.
