As a bassist I....
- Thread starter MultiScaleMale
- Start date
...laugh at guitar players who brag about how heavy their strings are.
Develop a heavy lisp and talk like murderface for kicks.
...want to make playing music on cell phone or laptop built-in speakers illegal.
I try to play as few notes as possible while keeping things interesting and locking in with the drummer.
...am the one that makes people dance.

As a bassist I....
... I am 95% more likely to be carrying spare guitar strings in my gig bag in case a guitarist breaks one than a guitarist is likely to be carrying a spare set for himself.

Always wear my shirts untucked when I play for the same reason.
Am the earliest musician to arrive 90 percent of the time.
Am STILL waiting for all the parties, groupies, money, and respect.
...spend too much time on Talkbass and not enough time actually playing bass.
... occasionally enjoy hitting a very low note at a volume that makes it hard for people standing up to 50 feet away gasp for breath, laughing all the while
...shine the reflection from my machine heads into peoples eyes on purpose.
