Hi All! This is my most recent cover of “The Fallen Interlude” by Blink182. Not crazy hard but super chill and fun to play.
Ps- turns out YouTube blocked my video because of copy write issues on shorts longer than 60 seconds. Womp womp
Cover: The Fallen Interlude: Blink-182 Trying Vimeo per someone’s suggestion. I hope this works. Also will be recording horizontal from now on haha

Fun tune! Love the variety you pick.
I feel like you are dragging a bit in parts in the beginning esp.
Overall nice job though.

Wouldn’t know it from your playing - great tone and mix and well played. Keep ‘em coming!!
Not much to give - this was excellent!

Nice job - one bit of feedback - your playing note to note is a bit choppy vs. fluid which the tab/song calls for, which is obvious when listening, this changes the drive/groove of the song - more fluid would work best here. Otherwise great work!
You can post on Vimeo instead and share link, happens with some artists.

Thanks for the feedback, I definitely didn’t do it on purpose so I’ll have to work on this!
Thanks! I’ll give it a shot
you know those guys who keep saying they’re going to do something and never do? 
Well I’m almost ready to record my first cover. HOWEVER, I thought I would post a tab for a song I really like for some reason. I think it’s because the tone is sweet but the topic is dark and contemptuous. On Ulitimate Guitar the bass tab for “Wouldn’t It Be Nice” is for a 5 string. I have a 4 string and the line for the B string was confusing me. The B string D flat is only plucked 8 times so i think a D flat on the A string will do. Maybe someone will find this helpful.
To unconfuse the tab I erased the B String except for the measure where it requires the D flat. The PDF is attached.
I now have 4 candidates in Moises for a cover.
Wouldnt It Be Good - needs more practice
Pride and Joy - just about there
Tin Pan Alley - tough, but with more practice . . .
The Chicken Dance - So simple it gives me the opportunity to improvise.
So as soon as I get back to my home location . . . .

Excellent playing and tone! Kudos to you, dude. I haven’t even thought of trying to play this one and you pulled it off!

Solid bass playing, @beaurapp! Sounding great and your own line too!! Chapeau!!
Nice and mellow, @BassyBunch! That’s come excellent playing, and love the 'ray!!
Goodness, that’s something completely different!! How cool! And well played @Ed
Welcome to the ‘post your covers thread’, @MrFrench! Nice smooth playing! My only comment is that the audio and video are slightly out of sync - it can be a real pain trying to get things to line up perfectly; I think we all feel the pain there. None the less, a super solid first posting!
Not a song, or a band I know, but I like what I hear! Well played, @TDobbs77, I do like some solid chugging!!
It is interesting to see how other people play a song. We play this in my covers band. Well played, and video in sync with this one!! One minor comment, when I play this, I try to make the notes blend into each other a little more, I try to keep the 8th note heartbeat of the song going, but avoid unintentional muting between notes.
Most excellent, @JustinAndSheba, defiantly got me a’grooving!!
Sadly, ‘Video unavailable’ 
Super-solid playing, @BassFusion, this one isn’t easy!! Chapeau!!
That bass certainly looks the part for this song!! Well played, @Vader!! Nice aggressive tone too!

Recorded a cover today, posted it to YouTube and it got blocked!!
Ho humm, guess I’ll have to record another!
Song 2 (my Boss ME-90B version) - Blur
Rather frustrated that my planned cover for today was blocked by the YouTube algorithm! So here’s Blur’s Sing 2 again, this time played through the Boss ME-90B. This pedal rocks!!
Oh, and have I told you I love the D-Roc?
