Just saw this on our local CL and thought it was worth sharing...it cracked me up!

Girl: I Play Bass Like a Beginner


Girl: I Play Bass Like a Beginner (Portland)
------------------------------------------------------------

I bought a bass for $100, and I have been playing it for a grand total of 1 year, and I would like to play in your band.

I can read tabs and play them slowly. I can also play all open strings with proficiency and a tiny bit of speed. I have mad bass skillz.

But seriously.

I can also sing quite a bit better than I can bass-play, and I have bangs. I would be totally happy to send you a tasteful, fully-clothed picture of myself if you are into that kind of thing, because I wanna be in your band.

Unless Nirvana is one of your influences, cause in that case I don't want to be in your band at all. I'm cool with everyone else, though.

That's funny. Usually those ads say they are open to any kind of music except country. I wonder what her problem with Nirvana is?
