The most appropriate drink for BASS players???

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey!

I was talking with a keyboardist (yeah, I know) who was giving me grief because when I drink (which isn't often!) I prefer to drink Jack Daniels straight. The keyboardist had different tastes (you can imagine) and wanted to know why I drink Jack...

I said, "I'm a BASS player... what should I drink? Pink Champale? That's for keyboardists and singers."

So, what is it? What is the official drink of BASS players???

(all in fun)

Maybe Coca-Cola? White Grape/Peach juice? Strawberry and Vanilla shakes? Oh wait, those are my favorites...

How about water? We bassists like to stay hydrated. Shoot, I'm talking about myself again...

Real bass players don't drink fake latte's from Starbucks, unless they want to taste burnt beans. We drink real lattes from independent (non corporate) coffee shops.

If you can see through it, it probably isn't beer.
