After nearly 20 years the holy grail of electric basses, Jaco Pastorius’ Bass of Doom, turned up in New York City recently. Bass Player Magazine’s Chris Jisi got to play the magnificent beast along with Will Lee, Victor Wooten and Victor Bailey. Jisi writes the most interesting tale of the Bass of Doom for Bass Player’s website. [via Yair]
Let’s take one final look at what’s happening this week:
- The Samples enter the realms of the jam band graveyard
- Jane’s Addiction will reunite for this year’s NME awards
- iClips brings us the Mother Hips and New Monsoon on Saturday night
- The Trey Anastasio Band’s Russ Lawton won’t slow down
- Stevie Wonder heads a strong Taste of Chicago lineup
- Check out Black Kids’ cover of Damn! I Wish I Was Your Lover
- Cunty Gail Zappa just can’t lay off fans of her late husband
- Beck and the Stone Temple Pilots are headlining Bumbershoot
Finally, kudos to the Golden Voice team for coming up with a last minute addition that’s sure to please the Coachella crowd. Prince has finally been confirmed as the true headliner of this year’s festival.

One thought on “Friday’s Leftovers: The Bass Of Doom”
“Cunty” that’s great Scotty.
The Zappa article reads oddly, it says, twice (in the column and under the picture) “The Arf Society says that the society has been aware of its use of the name since the festival was first launched in 1998.”
So the Arf Society has been aware of its own actions since it first started taking action in 1998?
I would hope so.
