I was wondering how long it would take for anybody else to realise that "RomperStompers" original post sounded very much like (s)he was involved in a sex-change operation!!

I get the feeling I'm going to have to go round explaining all of my jokes in future!!

Thanks BG!

this thread reminds me of a Seinfeld routine...He was talking about how girls are looking for guys, but we're everywhere! And then he starts talking about a guy he saw honking his horn at chicks on the street..."This, is a guy that's run out of ideas"...it's hilarious...uh, maybe you had to be there...

Well you made me laugh Bruce, but I didn't post. Sometimes you can have a lot of fun just reading these threads.

If you're female and play bass then you are unusual because there's not many who do it. I like being different....... maybe I am flakey... but I'm not in the dating game!

Our very first gig turned up a boy who thought I was the bees knees up there playing...which would've been great if I were gay!

Some comments from a guy (me):

It is indeed true that a woman doesn't need a bass (or any other instrument, for that matter) to get a guy. We guys like having ladies and we are easy.

In my experience, dating cellists is a much better idea than dating a girl in a punk rock band. Nothing against punk rock or women in punk bands; it's just my experience. Fellas, try this out. It works.

Guys, never stop playing the bass. I for one will never lose the absolute enjoyment of the instrument and the enjoyment of locking in on the groove live. But I used to be a total geek. Now, I'm still a geek, but not as much so. And now I know women. THANK YOU BASS.

And, lastly, a question for the ladies:

Is the bass truly the sexiest instrument? I have been told this by women, but I want to make sure it was my fretless and not me. I couldn't be me.

Chicks dig frontmen/singers and guitarists who can wank out solos...and generally any bandmember that has somewhat of a rockstar ego.

The quiet, "distant" rhythm section hardly ever gets the nod.
