Acrimony Photos

Hi Folks,

I sometimes stand in for the band pictured below, when the usual bassist can't make it. In this picture, I'm not present.

The guitarist in this band is a nice player (and nice guy), when others in the band are making a mess of things, his unhapiness is written all over his face.

Anyone else have pictures of on-stage acrimony?

Is he thinking:

"Everybody knows that it is very poor technique on bass, to hook your thumb over the top of the neck!! "

I earned that look from my guitarist at our last gig when I started playing a song a half-step up.

Thank god he was wearing sunglasses (outdoor gig) and nobody in the crowd noticed or seemed to care.

Oh, and for the vocabulary-challenged, "acrimony" = "evil hate death eye-lasers of doom"

That's the look I give my guitarist (only 2 gigs left, thank God), oh on avereage 10 times a night. I think I burned holes in the back of his head at the last gig ;-)
