The Bass Brute!
I dig it!

Yep, it's a problem....

I call this my Brown Eyed Girl face.

Hello. My name is Craig. And I suffer from bass face.

Seriously. No matter how I try to smile, look like I'm enjoying myself or groove to the music...my face returns to something resembling a scowl or glare. I feel my mouth pursing up, jaw clenched.

I'm seriously (not really) considering therapy or hypnosis. I'm slowly relaxing. I only hope my "good time face" is less creepy than my bass face.

Anything like this?

The best of all Bass Faces.


Could Atoz be the New Mosh Girl?

He just doesn't like all of the wrong notes the guitarist is playing...

Do you wear Affliction shirts to go along with this?

Honestly, I don't think anyone cares , so I never worried about it. Be natural - if that's smiling , concentrating or frowning so be it. Forced stage theatrics and special musician faces seem very Spinal Tap to me. Rehearsing facial expressions seems insane.
Just another opinion.

I have no clue what y'all are complaining about ...

I had one band that got mad at me for smiling and looking happy on stage

Regardless, Este scored huge points with this one, especially the dance with Morris and Jerome... just awesome.

You're joking. There's Este Haim's bass face, then there's everyone else.

Well, I often take/use an SX bass if playing a divey joint; you know, SX, from Rondo Music.

A good friend often tells me to smile while I am playing. I've given up trying to smile, but I do try to sing along (NO Mic). IF they amplified my singing, then smiling would be a very large concern for the audience.

 

[comatosedragon]

Having never played out, I don't have bass face (I don't think).

I do, however; have to make a conscious effort to not grit/grind my teeth when playing or practicing.

I wonder if the two afflictions are related?

I’m smiling most of the time
