Well, none. They'd rather restore it without making ANY changes...

You forgot that you need one more to write a book about how to A0 tune the wire inside the bulb, another to argue that it's shape does affect how bright it gets, and a whole bass forum to argue about everything until I get sleepy.

How many...

...chick lead singers does it take to change a light bulb?

Just one, they hold the bulb in place and the world revolves around them.

It really depends on when the bulb was made and who made it.

. . . drummers . . .

Just one, but everyone else will stumble in the dark for a while before he realizes it was time for a change.

Borderline...

How many Californians does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Californians don't screw in light bulbs, they screw in hot tubs...

How Many?

How many chick singers does does it take to sing My Funny Valentine? Apparently all of them(from personal experience).

How many bass players to change a lightbulb? None--the keyboard player does it with his left hand.

How many country-western bass players? 1-5-1-5-1-5-1-5-1 ad nauseum.
