Is it just me or is it an absolute paradox the way that guy bass players are extremely attracted to chick bass players, but when they get together in real life its just as if they were both playing bass live on stage. - Its just a jumbled mess. ?

actually, the Chick with Bass thread may provide some opportunities to test your hypothesis ...

| | | | The best case scenario for dating a female bass player is that she has better gear than me and is willing to loan it to me. Id take a female drummer anyday though. ;-) |

I don't mind if I play the bass too, unless she uses my basses!  |

Sounds weird, but it IS kind of like music.
Don't need two bass players in music, but you DO need a bass and a soprano...

| | | | Dating other musicians is kind of just weird.. Cant explain why, but it never seemed to work out with me. Currently seeing a concert photographer and that works out a little better. Things are more interesting. Plus she takes pictures of us |

You might as well claim that Chevrolet owners are attracted to each other...

I recommend you check them out.

...it's just you.
There's no cosmic, universal reason why your relationships fail. It's just you.
Good luck.
and Have A Nice Day!

I wasn't attracted to her because she plays bass.
I was attracted to her because she is totally hot.
