Stop saying your playing is really bad it's called "learning" always room for improvement IMO just like I'm "learning" slapping

You know you're a bass player, if at least one of your basses points to the sky and doesn't require a strap to play standing up...

you can decipher the phrase "you can't hold no groove, if you aint got no pocket"

you have gigs

you're the first band member to get anywhere

**true story alert**
my first ever time in a band I showed up at the drummer and guitar player's house (they're brothers). One of their parents let me in and they didn't show up for a half hour.. actaully really good guys though... we got that chemistry that a band really needs to this day

you know your a bass player when you expect the house band at the wedding your going to have a bass player that uses a fender P.


you know your a bass player when you get pissed off cuz the house band doesnt even have a bass player




you know your a musician when you can tell the house band how to EQ their sound so people in the front row dont get headaches. damn that guys flute was high pitched

You know your a bass player when you tap your thigh with your ring and index fingers while dancing with the old lady.
