Sign in to disble this ad
i have a sickness...

at the end of the show,
after a big dramatic song

i begin to take my bass off while hitting all the strings and smashing on some distortion....

and then smash it into things, shaking it all around.....



eventually rubbing it all over the amp and throwing in on the ground....

the crowd loves it to death, but i cant figure out why im doing it
and im afraid im gonna snap the neck......

any advice?

Hand it to someone else when the show is over.

OR


Take it off, turn on your massive distortion, put it in the stand,
and walk away.


Good luck.
