I'm loving that bass line for Beautiful Day! I'm not an expert either, so it's nice to be able to hear the bass isolated from the guitar, and now I can pick it out in a song. Roll on Twin Cities 2010!!

Nice to see the rehearsals. And listening to the bass being played isolated from the guitar I become aware of its sound more clearly. I am not an expert so it is difficultto distinguish the bass sound among all the instruments. Now I understand its importance... though the guitar gets always the spotlight. The Cave it is quite dark, very depressive, looks like a bunker !
