When you pluck a bass string, your finger plucks from below (towards the high strings) and moves upward (towards the low strings). Unless you're playing on the lowest string, that means is ends up against the next lower string. Pluck a note on the G string, your finger is then on the D.

So when this comes up, and your next note is on that lower string, "economy" is to use the same finger, continuing its motion. "Alternate" would be to use another finger, ignoring the one that is in position.

And even though it sounds like more effort, there are times when alternate makes sense, for some particular licks. But not too often.

"Holy Batshit, Fatman!" 

I guess the site is a humming a-long.  I'm off for a day, and there are 7 pages on that thread! 

I will say 'good tune!'

I let the PC open before to go to bed with the browser at www.ironmaiden.com -to review it early in the morning before to work...

But then, I woke up in the middle of the night wanting to drink some water.
In my way to fridge I just remembered. I checked the IM site, then here : most online ever: 247

Now the alarm rings and I'm off to work

PS : a St. Pellegrino, mind you  ;)
 
Posting cause I can.
Dang, we are losing regular members like swatted flies over the set list.  Well, not that I'll be happy to have the tour over, but will be glad to see everyone return!!

Successful install of Windows7 Ultimate.  Gotta say, the 'native' drivers with 7 are better than Vista's.

Who's that regular member ??  :huh:
 
I wonder how many n00bs we'll keep. A lot of them haven't made it here yet.

Well, Perun's gone, Invader, CFH...
 
Oy, I'm still here!  I have the luxury of the whole of tomorrow without risk, since I'm 8 hours ahead of Dallas.  :)  But, I also have to wait very long, 2 months minus one day. :(
 
CFH ? Invader ?? I saw them both today, maybe Invader is even still logged...
Also Perun is gone mostly cause of his thesis.

For the moment I see Forostar -maybe Zare- missing -probably for that reason...

Some will stay. I got stuck here about that time 4 years ago, it was AMOLAD then.
Three countries and four jobs later, I'm still here  :)
