i predict a lot of rehearsals for this guy
why?
shouldn't be that easy to learn the Melvins stuff
yeah, I've got mixed feelings on it. on one hand I hold pinkus in the highest of regards. I'm a former BHS'aholic.
but on the other hand.. none of his bass playing sounds anything like anything MELVINS have ever done... especially his latest sound with Honky.
I'm not saying there isn't hope. I'm just saying my expectations are up in the air.
I think it will just be different (is that a bad thing?), plus he is a showman. He will get to be noisy which he does not do with Honky. He has been laying down some funk with Carson, horn section and all, so anything is possible.
I told him to have Buzz come up and play Lung Punch, then play the Pinkus EP and take a break. Then come back out and rock the Melvins set. Who knows. I doubt it will suck dumps he is a professional afterall.
