"I know a lot of stuff is marketed on genre, but part of our duty is [to] ruin all that." - Mike Watt Genius! The music industry is changing, reluctantly as always. It is the duty of the artists to drag the industry into the 21st century or destroy it entirely. Either move with the music or get out of the way!
"Mooney maybe didn't have great time, but Entwistle...had some time!" There it is folks, the secret to the alchemy of the Who. Mike always nails it. I could listen to him talk about music all night.
@ptolemny I'd disagree with that, there is no substitute for a live setting and trying to replicate what you do in the ease of the rehearsal space with the heat and the lights and the weight of playing live
i totally agree so much more than this musician.yeah! james jamerson(r.i.p.),jack bruce,geezer butler,ohhhhh man! john entwistle(r.i.p.) and let's not forget our man mike watt.keep playing that bass guitar man!
No disrespect, but I gotta disagree with Watt about the live show being "the real deal." A band can get into the jam and play just as hot when nobody is there as when there are thousands present; no external validation is necessary. I think Watt would agree.
