sheesh... | Boys will be boys. But, for the record, the two bass ladies I have mentioned are both fine players. And that was my first mention, too.
There is also Cheryl Crow.

Gayle Ann is a musician, not a pinup, furthermore, what makes her ugly? You might want to think before you answer if you answer because you might open a big can of worms.

I just wanted him to see more than one picture of her. It probably wouldn't have made a difference in his mind. I think she's very attractive! And this is NOT a beauty contest!

sheesh... | Birdxofprey,
What a great comment! That's something I've often thought about posting as a female bass player.
Someday, the Male Bass Player thread. |

It's harder to do than any of the other parts. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
