Bass Guitar.ABOUT
Medium-Thin is three talented musicians dedicated to creating unique and exciting music. We're not really into covers, but we have done a few in the past. We don't like bad attitudes or mean people. We've gone through three bass players in the last year because of differences in taste, style, ability, direction, and attitude. Right now our horn player is playing bass.

Past Events
We are going to be headlining a free Central Park show in New York City (with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra). The openers will be Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chili Peppers, U2, Bruce Springsteen, Madonna, Green Day, Lou Reed (only because he's from N.Y.), No Doubt, The Police, and if there's time we'll let Bob Dylan play a couple songs.
We will be playing a benifit concert for her majesty, the Queen of England (it seems she's fallen on hard times) with The Sex Pistols (Glen Matlock on bass) at the Royal Albert Hall. Sorry folks - royalty only at this one!
