Atypical Talkbass...

woodpeckers

I think it's against TB rules to mention either of those things.

Those Rickenbackers are the most perfectly executed instruments ever made.

Spelunking, embroidery, water on the knee, Marjorie Main, tonsillectomies, urban blight, the Golden Horde, Roger Ramjet, Baffin Bay, cardamom, the Hang Seng index, the 1858 Bradford sweets poisoning, 8V71 Detroit Diesels, Broderick Crawford, Dashikis, cloud seeding, IBM, kohl, gyroscopes, Chihuly glass, Tycho Brahe, the Chrysler building, Quisp and Quake cereals, obelisks, sea robins, the Panama canal, iodine, linoleum, mulch, Fatty Arbuckle, The Valachi Papers, quinoa, Lufthansa, Earth Shoes, owls, Bonnie and Clyde, the pancreas, and yams all come to mind as topics we've barely scratched the surface of, Joe, but there's no hurry. Have a great night.

How about a guy in Ithaca who might know a Violinist (fiddle player) name Frank and a guitarist (recently toured the Netherlands) named Rich (both excellent musicians) originally from the West Essex part of No. Jersey with whom I truly miss playing!

Only been in town 18 months, haven't met them (yet), but I'll keep an eye out!

...... asymmetry of monetary policy and Godel's incompleteness theorems have not. Tut tut!

I believe I mentioned Godel and the implications of the incompleteness theorem at least twice.

Godel starved himself to death at Princeton, btw.

FWIW, my wife and I just went with quarts countertops. YMMV.

Even stronger !

Bass on church organs.

I share the same opinion. IMO, "case candy" terminology is ultra lame.

Really. I tried it and I can assure you it ain't that great. Tastes like cardboard.

A @BassCliff gig without comely ladies.

 

[Gravedigger Dav]

Harry Hibbs and his influence on Hip Hop.

 

[Pings Bass]

I have no idea what this means

not being from a hockey part of the globe, ​

but it sounds sooo cool. I love it! Surely there is a blog in that.

Funny, I thought so, too, back in 2006: Invalid Link Removed

 

[Michedelic]

Why not?

Not counting things that are against the rules, what are things we rarely or never hear about on Talkbass?

I can't think of much.

Dwarf bass players?

Let me fix that for you...

Bass on church organs.

Here you go...

I have six telescopes.

 

[micguy]

I've never seen a discussion thread on techniques to evade hoards of young, attractive, overly enthusiastic groupies.

 

[redwingxix]

If Pluto is a planet, then what is Uranus?

a black hole

 

[redwingxix]

Threads we will hopefully never see:

"Tell me more about your fantasy football team..."

"How was the traffic on your ride into work today?"

"Fixed gear bikes really are the best!"

"Do you put on pants every time you leave the house? Be honest!"

"You'll never believe what I found in the backyard when I was cleaning up after the dog!!!"

"I have a really bad rash right here. (photos attached)"

There's a number of devotees who have made similar statements on TB in the past, but no-one was paying attention.

Flats may sound better but you'll be late to the gig.
