ME:Uh' yeah.
Guitarist: Why don't you learn how to play the guitar.
ME: Because I have no desire to run around looking stupid.
note: He was a metal-wannabe. He didn't get it.
This happened when I went to get my first bass and didn't.
ME: (pointing to a bass) can see that.
Store idiot: You don't want to play that, you can't play anything on it, you need a guitar.
ME: Oh
note: Like a dummy I got the guitar, and now I would like to choke the F#$%@G$@&!!!! out of him.
yet another note: the preceeding F#$%@G$@&!!!! does not represent actual coherent speech. LOL

| | | | This may be a little off the topic but... I was once in an elevator with my bass in a rectangular case. There was one other occupant ... a girl in her late teens or early twenties. Conversation:
Girl: Are you a DJ?
Me: No, I'm a bassist.
Girl: What's that?
Me: Well, this is a bass guitar.
Girl: ( confused look)
I think I actually started to explain what it was. She lost interest within a sentence or two. |

| | | | my "guitarist".......
"You know im not putting bass down or anything, but its pretty easy. I mean guitar- now thats hard. I bet if i played bass id be better than you right now." (I had been playing bass for about a month then- he had been playing for about a year and a half on guitar.......I think you know what he was thinking)
I was so shocked and mad I had no idea what to say. This is coming from a guy who has no idea what Ionian means to this day. |

| | | | I was carrying my rectangular case around and as I walked pass a couple of guys, one of them whispered to the other, "Its a sniper rifle, he's gonna go postal..." That actually made me laugh my ass off. The best comments I get are usually from black guys, they always appreciate bass.
Here's the worst:"Eddie Captain...now he was a good bass player"
"Who's Eddie Captain?"
My sister walks up to me: "She meant Eric Clapton"
"Yeah, thats what I meant, Eric Clapton"
"But Eric Clapton plays guitar..."
Ignorance never ceases to amaze me, I was surpise my sister figured out she meant Eric Clapton. |
