Pickup Lines for DBers?

Hey kids-
I've been wondering what y'all use for pickup lines between set breaks, and after gigs. Different venues w/different audiences require different technique.

Maybe this should be under technique...

Chris?

Depends on who/what you're trying to "pick up", doesn't it? I'm an old married fart now, but I used to be fond of, "Why, yes....as a matter of fact, I am the bass player in the band. Nice to meet you. My name's _______ , but the guys in the band all call me "Big Wood", for obvious reasons. Feel free to do the same. "

Not that that ever worked, but it did help to ferret out who had a sense of deadpan humor and who didn't...

Nah, I think this is about as miscellaneous as miscellaneous gets.

Maybe you shouldn't show the young lady this pic, she may mistake what you were referring to with the hand gesture.


Nick you've gotta let me know where to eat/drink/see live music when I'm in Cincy. Next time thru I'll buy dinner.
