Jesus was a Bass Player (I have proof)

Yup, you heard it here first. And what kind of Bass does Jesus play you ask???? ...... A 51 P-Bass..... surprisingly with a pick.(I always assumed he'd be more of a finger player)

This like, old. But never gets old, haha.

I could swear I've seen that one a few times already... along with the remark of him being supposed to be a fingerplayer and all.

That's not Jesus. That's some hippie freak. There were a lot of those hippie freaks back in the 70s. They looked like Jesus. Lots of people made the same mistake. Ya always heard people saying, "I saw Jesus today. He spoke to me." Understandable error on your part.

Wow!! I think it's cool that "He" finally returned after all these years (as we have all been told "He" someday would), and that "He" selected bass as "His" method of communication to the world.

BROTHER: "And Saint Atila raised the bass guitar up on high, saying, 'Oh, Lord, bless this thy bass guitar that with it thou mayest play thy bass notes to perfection, in thy mercy.' And the Lord did grin, and bassists did feast upon the Alembics, and Rickenbackers, and Laklands, and Rob Allens, and Fenders, and Gibsons, and Birdsongs, and --"

MAYNARD: Skip a bit, Brother.

BROTHER: "And the Lord spake, saying, 'First shalt thou tune thy Holy bass. Then, shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shalt be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy bass notes towards thou audience, who being Holy in my sight, shall love it.'"

MAYNARD: Amen.

Jesus was a carpenter and, while He is with us all, would probably post in the "Luthiers' Corner".

Well, didn't Clapton play with the Plastic Ono Band at some point? So if Clapton is God, and the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are really all one, then by logical extension Jesus was, in fact, in Lennon's backup band.

Wow. You'd think with all the hand trauma, he wouldn't be able to play.

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only bass player who knows all of the dialog from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I was going to try to come up with a "Nights Who Say Nee" scene where the schrubbery was replaced with some type of bass, but couldn't imagine King Arthur riding to a music store banging 2 coconuts together.

Especially if it's in a temperate zone!

ARTHUR: Go and tell your master that we have been charged by God with a sacred quest. If he will give us food and shelter for the night he can join us in our quest for the classic Jazz tone.
GUARD: Well, I'll ask him, but I don't think he'll be very keen, he's already found it, you see?
ARTHUR: What?
GALAHAD: He says they've already found it!
ARTHUR: Are you sure he's found it?
GUARD: Oh, yes, it's very nice-a.

Oddly enough, this explains a lot.

Exactly. I picked up a girl for a date once and her mother immediately got on the phone to her friends telling them that her daughter was going out with Jesus.

The good old days!!
