This is how I am entertaining myself today- Pretending that my band wants to fire me on the guitard forum.

Stop whining about his image. If he's a good player he's a good player. tbh I'd go see a band more often if they had a wild card like that up on stage. You'll only hurt yourselves by kicking him out.
Great pic. That's too funny. Though I think in today's era of PC-ness, guitard-baiting may end up being branded a hate crime....... so get it in while you can, lol.

"what ever your final decision is make sure you steal his amp."

Love it! And I love the outfit plus tapping, awesome!

Plus this one:
"sounds like this guy is rocking harder than you fella's. maybe you should bring your game up to his level."

I was gonna say you were a dork for doing this until I read the posts on the other forum, your a genius. Whats funnier is the guys in the other message board take you completely seriously. Like theres some bass player out there on mescaline 24/7 playing in star outfit. If that was the case hed be famous by now.

That is rich!
It will be funny to see either:
----how sympathetic they'll be
----how mean they'll be
----or how many people compare competent musicianship vs. mismish of image.
Good stuff.

I just wish I thought of it first. Maybe the Fender forum...

50 replies! haha! guitards!

That's me in the photo. I've laid off the mescaline a bit (I mean, it's pretty harrowing to do often) but the damage has been done. I'm not famous, but perhaps wearing the costume every show will help and possibly lower expectations as to the precision of my playing. Trouble was, it got pretty hot and I ended up playing half the show in my underwear.

funny thing is they're still replying, kinda like cars on the highway crashing into cars that have already crashed.

It's good to know if all else fails the guitards will keep you for your gear.

I just feel so used.

They took it pretty well, actually. For those who got it anyway.

Man, you are too funny!
