Don't they teach these things in school at all?? Everyone should know the difference between a guitar and a bass, even though it's a 6 string bass.... |

Played a concert last friday and in the concert review in sunday's newspaper the reviewer mentioned "the two guitarists did their job well". Well, glad that I made a decent job but to be called a guitarist in public sucked...  |

I'm in the process of trying to teach my 2 yr. old the difference between a bass and a guitar!

If I had been playing an upright, I'm sure he wouldn't had called me a guitarist...
BTW: What does LMFAO mean? There's a lot of these abbreviations in use here that I haven't really learned yet...  However, I think I have a clue about the meaning... |

LMFAO = Laughing My F***ing A$$ Off
