Metallica - Orion (take 1) Metallica - Orion (take 1)

Just a quick attempt at that nice bass part of Orion. Such a relaxing, spaced-out little bassline, the song title fits it perfectly.

Heavy Metal

I'm 17 years old, live in the Isle of Man, and have been playing bass for over 2 years (though you may find that hard to believe).
Band/artist history
I started playing bass at the age of 15 in February 2002. My best friends from school had started a band but had no bass player. I'd been interested in the bass for a while (not that I had a clue about what role it played) so on the day of my first band practise I got myself a brand spanking new...Squier! The bass of kings. And it's gone from there - I've been in several different bands - all started wonderfully and failed miserably.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I've never played live but I'd love to - especially as part of a band.
Your musical influences
Well I play bass, but bassists are not necessarily my musical influences...here's a brief list: Casey Chaos of Amen, AFI, Jaco Pastorius, The Mad Capsule Markets, Flea. I would say Vic Wooten but he doesn't really influence or inspire me...his skill just upsets me.
What equipment do you use?
USA Fender Jazz Bass Peavey Microbass 15w practice amp Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Boss CEB-3 Chorus
Anything else?
Please don't judge me by my recordings...they would probably sound a lot better with a professional setup :P
