Michael Steele

[johnnyjosephemil]

She was the bass player for The Bangles. I hope I have the name right. If not, I'm really embarassed. What's she up to? Is there any mention of her in a Runaways reunion? [img]graemlins/thinking.gif[/img]

Can we pre-pay for c.d.'s, then have them mailed? I have no access to a credit card, and am unable to get one anyway. [img]graemlins/idea.gif[/img]

I have to be honest here...

As a bassist, there are only 2 Bass players from the Runaways that i would want to see LIVE..

1.) Jackie Fox

2.) Laurie McAllister.

Not that Vicki was bad, i did hear a few mistakes on a live vid i've got ( "Wasted" ), but hey, i've made mistakes playing live also, who doesn't? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

i love vicki but i think it should stay original with jackie only. Jackie is so awsome i love her
it wouldnt be the same if jackie wasnt in the reunion, if they had one.. but it would stil be amazing ofcourse...

[Ampeg J]

I have to agree.

Jackie was one of my heros when i was learning to play the bass.

Jackie and Gene Simmons.

They made it COOL to play the bass.

You could be UP FRONT and not just some person in the shadows by the drum riser.

jackie and gene DId make it cool
she reminds me of a girl gene ... Just the playing style but it was her own too , and thats awsome
i love jackie

<font size="2" face="Arial,Helvetica">AFAIK, Vicki only actually played on one song on the two albums recorded when she was in the band. I don't know whether this was because she couldn't play very well, band politics - or the legendary 'medical condition (not drugs)'...

Was she the 'Sid Vicious of the Runaways'? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

<font size="2" face="Arial,Helvetica">I had heard rumors of such, and that Lita actually played some of the Bass tracks, which she stated in an interview she didn't recall ever playing any bass tracks.

*shrug*

Regarding the live vid i mentioned earlier, for all i know that performance could have been the very first time Vicki performed "Wasted" live ( which is NOT the easiest song in thier repetoire by a long shot! ), i didn't mean to sound harsh toward her if it came off that way.

Regarding Michael Steele, from what i can gather from the Bangles webbie, they have not been a band for a while...

Thanks Ampeg!
I guess that makes more sense.
