    Like it! :) Flea is a virtuoso for sure.

    Next, I want to see a cover of Far Away Eyes, by the Rolling Stones. It's a fairly easy bass song to play, and you'd probably love it.

    It's not really about the band.. It was not a bad cover for how old he is.

    That was really good Sollie! One hint, you look calm, but not "in tune" to the song. Music comes from the heart and soul. You gotta really feel it and get into it. If you ever see really good musicians play, they often make goofy or flat out ridiculous faces, seriously. Some of them look, almost crazy lol! But that's because they are really getting into the music, playing it from the heart/soul. Once you change your mindset, the music will just flow off your fingers into the amp.

    Rock on, Sollie :) Well done.

    Whew, I was wondering what you would want to cover a bass with.


    Would that be large mouth or small mouth?

    Believe it or not, that wasn't even alcohol induced.
