There's a real simple reason for that: In DB land, we file our gig stories under "MUSIC", while the BG contingent files their gig stories - and quite rightly so - together with "BASS HUMOR".....
Ba-dum-bum............ SSSSSSPPPPLAAAAAASSSHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
Good evening ladies and joims. Take my Ibanez......PLEASE!
Just flew in from MTV, and boy, are my ears tired! ba- DOOM!!!
But seriously folks, ya ever wonder why there aren't more specific forum headers in BG land? I mean, think about it, you crazy nuts.....maybe some of the names should be changed, cause they don't mean the same thing up there that they do down here....to make things more representative of what's really going on, may I suggest the following changes in the following BG forums: AMPS should become the AMPEG SVT RuLeZ! Forum. BASSES could be renamed PHALLIC EXTENSION CANOE PADDLES. PICKUPS could become the POST-GIG/GROUPIE Forum. TECHNIQUE would simply become the SLAP Forum. GENERAL INSTRUCTION would be simplified as GIMME SUM TABZ. MISCELLANEOUS could simply be called OFF TOPIC, and finally OFF TOPIC could be changed to POLL: FLEA vs. JWC?
But seriously, folks.....WHOA!!! Nice toss there junior....yeah, I remember my first beer...thanks for all your contributions, but I prefer FRESH vegetables...OUCH!!!! ....FRESH vegetables, you hear me???? (GGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGG)

Doesn't matter really - HEAD DISMAY could kick both their *sses with one endpin tied behind his back - but you're right, I'd pay good money to eavesdrop on that discussion. |

And I want to Moderate the "Gimme Sum Tabz Now!" forum - any reply that doesn't say "No, transcribe it yourself!" will be deleted!

Yeah right we'll be back for the big battle scene at 06.00! "Dwarvish horde #53" or do they do all that with computers these days?
