Ok, so I know there are some female TB'ers. This is not meant to be a thread so's us guys can ogle you (well, not entirely anyway), but just so you can show the male half of TB how much you freakin' rock!! As a guy, I have always thought female bass players were the cat's a** - the Bangles, the Go-Gos, Til Tuesday, Talking Heads, Smashing Pumpkins, plus that new chick with the Sadowsky (what's her name again?); there are many great examples, and everyone one of them cool as Christmas, just because they play bass. Let's see some of our homegirls here, and hey, if you have some cool pics of non-TB female bass players, that'd be cool too!

This isn't supposed to be a "bass babes 2" thread, I was really hoping to see more lady TBers posting here.

I agree completely, i think that most guitar, bass, and drum stereotypes are that those positions are all usually filled by men. So to me seeing any of the mentioned above played by a female its just so awesome, not to mention when they play it well!

You know, it's pretty much a double standard when you think that a pretty woman doesn't have talent enough to be here.

Rana Ross, Tal Winkenfield and Rhonda Smith have credentials that most of us would kill for. Talent and looks have absolutely nothing to do with each other.

Making comments in either direction reminds me of why I stayed away from here for a couple years.

Well, I owe it all to a bass babe. I picked up the bass because I heard some cool sounds on an old tape I borrowed from a friend at the very impressionable age of 15. I started playing the next day, later learned that it was

Indeed! However, the best combinations for record companies (okay, recording distribution businesses today) are those that are good looking (in someone's opinion) for stage presence AND have chops to spare. Personally, for me, it's all about the music...the personification of the soul. For the younginz out there, the person has to be hot first, and musical second (and if anyone hasn't noticed, it's the younginz that have the most disposable income of any age group). Attractiveness also has something to do with one's orientation, but, truthfully, that is also a matter of age. With age comes wisdom and experience, and beauty and good looks fade. At my age, I'd rather sit in a room with a player with fantastic chops to see what I can learn rather than with a young, attractive (some might say hot) student of the instrument who knows roots and eighth notes. For some college kids I know, however, just the opposite is their reality. Some of the best musicians I know aren't attractive - which is why they're studio musicians.

As for your myspace, anyone who plays a maple fingerboard is OK in my book. Your photo (if that is your real photo) purports you to be a very attractive person - so let's hear some basschops rather than singing and lead guitar and disprove my theory.

Yeah, video killed the radio star, we all know. Allow the lady her well deserved rant, you are unable to see things from her POV unless you're a chick musician, so let's not turn this thread into a debate, you can start your own for that. Are you a chick bassist or do you have a pic of a chick bassist???

I'm totally in agreement that it's way cool to see the fairer sex behind the predominantly male roles of lead guitar, bass, or drums! There was a local band playing the bar that is close to me a month or two ago, the bassist was female, and also the lead singer! :eek: That show totally blew me away! I wish that I had gotten some pics or could remember their name... but alas it escapes me. :bawl:

Take heart all you female TBers! Don't let those sexist retarded comments get you down! Whether or not you post on here, there's a great deal of this community who supports you in your right to rock out! :D

When you post, there is a button that says "Manage Attachments." That brings up a pop up window where you can browse your hard drive for a pic - I think your limit per post is two, but there may also be limits on how big the files are.

Anybody know Divinity, out of Atlanta, GA?
She has one of the deepest pockets I've ever experienced in person. To say she's a GREAT player is such an understatement.
She was the girl that played with Vic on Disc 2 of "Live in America". I may be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure she rhymes WHILE she's copping Victor's slap style...SICK!

I personally donot know any woman out there that doesnt like to be called "hot". Now if you were on here belting out riffs and all a guy could manage was to comment on your looks..then I could see getting panties getting tied in knots. Im 34, I have had 4 kids, and when a guy calls me hot...well..it makes my day...anyway...thats my take on it. I think Tal is very cute by the way...I love the crazy curly hair!!!!

Yeah, point taken, but I just like seeing women playing bass. It doesn't have to be a sexy thing, so "hot" or not, I don't care. Chrissie Hynde is one of my favorite rock artists, and she ain't hot by pretty much anyone's definition, but she's damned cool with her "go f*** yourself" attitude, her bangs and her telecaster. My point is that not only do bass players not get into pics enough, regardless of gender, but female bass players even less so. "Cool" is irrespective of gender, and in many cases irrespective of "hotness." I'd intended this to be an opportunity for female bass players to show off their cool factor to those of us who appreciate it - as an early poster in this thread pointed out there's already a thread called "bass babes" for anyone who wants to look at hot chicks with basses - not that there's anything wrong with that either (hey, I've been there more than once), I'm just saying, this thread ain't meant to be that thread.

Anybody know Divinity, out of Atlanta, GA?
She has one of the deepest pockets I've ever experienced in person. To say she's a GREAT player is such an understatement.
She was the girl that played with Vic on Disc 2 of "Live in America". I may be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure she rhymes WHILE she's copping Victor's slap style...SICK!

Do yourself a favor and give her a listen.

Quick sidenote, I saw a picture of her in a magazine that inspired me to get pink strings for my bass... good times!

My favorite chick bassist is my girlfriend, Ling. She admires my bass playing, and I admire how hard she works in school...oh yea, and how she can sight-read and I can't (no church gigs for me :bawl:)

She sports an Ibanez soundgear. I'm building her a bass for her birthday present.

Hey, I don't think I'm exactly "hittable" either (I'm a guy), but I still think I look cool playing bass! :-) That's what this was supposed to be about... how about we just close this thread then, as it doesn't seem many are able to take it in the spirit in which it was intended... mods?

Well, go Sheryl Crow!

Anyway. Ladies, chicks, and chyks, I honestly do not blame you for not posting your pics. I have read far too many comments about women left on youtube and now, unfortunately, here about how they are fat or ugly or too hairy or whatever. It makes me wonder if they're even looking at the same picture that I am! I wouldn't want subject myself to it, either.

Too many haters and bullies and teenage boys whose only standard of measure is the latest airbrushed Playboy centerfold they've managed to take a peek at.

For those of you who consider yourself "unhittable", well, you may or may not be able to meet these little children's standards but I very seriously doubt you are "unhittable".

I'm probably nearly the last person in the world to be worried about being PC but crap like that just burns me. It's not rational, beneficial, or even realistic.

I'd apologize for my little rant but I'm just not sorry. :bassist:

Yes, Sheryl is a fantastic bassist!! Very tight, great groove! Aimee Mann & Johnette Napolitano are two other fantastic bassists, I saw Til Tuesday years ago, just fantastic!
And I saw Johnette with Concrete Blonde back around 1990, one of the best shows I ever saw. Just a trio, and she rocked the house!!!!!

That's not so bad. David Bowie has always looked a bit androgynous and either way he's good looking. I wouldn't worry about it. :) I was always told I look like Anne Murray, though I can't see the resemblance at all.

Katie Thomas (http://jettekelly.com/collectively.htm) is a dancing Francophile who can say 'cheese' in several languages and slap the bass line to 'Higher Ground' for hours on end. She is usually the only female bassist at the GW jazz jams and has shared bills with bands such as The Romantics, The Long Blondes, and Kenna. In addition to playing bass with Jette & company, she's a classical pianist who plays keyboard and makes laser noises for sublimely cool, all-girl band Five Four.

LOL. I used to drive from the airport all the way accross 98th Avenue to Interstate 580 to pick up Highway 13 to go to Walnut Creek. Now that's a pretty savory route, I must say. There was a little restaurant along the way ... The Best of Two Worlds ... "not only hamburgers, but hot dogs, too!" It was long closed, and somebody had plastered the entire exterior of the building with posters of Chairman Mao.
