Late joiner to this place. Buuuut...
I'm an electric bassist (I only play 5 string bass guitars lol) which I played for my own performance examination and a guitarist of less than mediocre ability I ended up accompanying on guitar.
I played some questionable choices considering my examiners were middle aged women. I'll give reasoning as to why I chose them though.
Questionable choices
Death Blooms - Mudvayne
The bass part is really quite "wanky" for lack of a better way to put it.
My bands first finished song (yet to be named band and yet to get organised to gig due to HSC)
Seeing as we do some weird blend of progressive and death metal all my bass lines have come out as somewhat ridiculous inc. copious amounts of two handed tapping playing barre chords and whatnot.
The other two were somewhat more fitting
Victor Wooten's version of amazing grace.
Really quite self explanatory really.
Aaaand lucky last being
Stu Hamm's appropriation of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata for a bass guitar.
It's all two handed tapped, it might be yes somewhat dumbed down from the original piece but it's due to physical impossibility of some parts to do otherwise.
Needless to say the examiners only responded "well" to the last two pieces in terms of body language and whatnot hahaha. Either way I had some fun.
