Chyeah, pretty funny story

Sign in to disble this ad
I was on my out of my martial arts club, and i see this guy blasting AC/DC through his car. Now this might seem pretty normal, but its not so normal over here when everybody is into really obnoxious music like techno and such. So he passes by, i shake his hand, and im like AC/DC, nice.

He was like "woah its nice to know that there are people from the newer generation who listen to that". I was like "heh, I play too".

and then he was like "bass?". I was almost in shock there, I was like "yess". He gave me a high five and was like, haha, i play bass too!

When I asked him about how he knew i play bass, his answer was "your fingers"

might not seem much but it made me smile

Awesome dude! Pure awesome.


heheh we need more people here blasting the good stuff when i get my car (8 months till real license wooh!) all I'll be blasting is Pantera, Led Zeppelin, Guns N Roses, Metallica and a few others.

Too many showoffs trying to be cool blasting their hip hop and techno.

Also very cool he could tell your a bassist

it was pretty cool, i was like woah, i just found a bassist :crazy:!
haha yeah, its really hard to find people who listen to good music here, even harder to find musicians, and harder to find bassists. It was a pretty cool compliment really, like someone telling that im a bassist by my fingers.

I had something like that happen last week!

Someone I shook hands with asked me if I played bass because I have hands like an orangutan.

Apparently that's what they're for.
