Avoiding Swamp... errr... Sweaty Buttocks

[Jrussblues]

My buddy has 2 sticks of deodorant. One is named a and b. That one is for his a.. and b...s, he swears by the method, I think it's gross. Good luck.

 

[ZenG]

Done.

Step 2?

Duct tape.

I was in the Army stationed in Alabama, Georgia and Iraq. I know the situation first hand. Gold Bond, or a similar powder, is the key.

I currently live in Louisiana so I still use it.

Oh, and don't wear cotton briefs, they just soak up all that sweat, chafe and make things uncomfy and potentially put some fungal in your jungle. I would recommend “moisture-wicking” synthetics — boxer briefs, as loose boxers or tight-fitting underwear tend to bunch up and chafe in some fairly uncomfortable spots.

A nylon/spandex wicking blend will help keep you dry, and wont ride up nor fall down while you're doing your Flea impression on stage.

And wear black... it tends to hide the sweat-stain better.

Nailed it. As an endurance runner and event manager (read: all day setup prior to set) this response is exactly mine, except I might also add Bodyglide to the equation. Works to avoid bloody nipples too.

Yes this is real, and sold everywhere.

I swear by this! In the summer, I keep the basement uncarpeted, and with silk boxers is a great way to avoid Swamp Ash.

I don't know what you guys are talking about. Swamp Ash is one of my favorite woods for guitars.

...Don't know why you'd want to avoid it.

 

[Fxpmusic]

...or whatever Bootsy's guitarist is wearing here

1-Google "flea naked"
2-find the right picture (and see his dong too many times in the process)
3-save picture to phone
4-hmmm maybe somebody did it already.
5-keep scrolling
6-damn it!!!!
7-delete naked picture of flea from phone.

I'm sorry to have let you down bassbrothers, but I broke the most sacred of talkbass bylaws by wearing shorts on stage this weekend. I accept my punishment of bass exile and will only play accordion henceforth, never to vote "carrots" again.

We lucked out and were moved inside because of rain. Stay cool, amigo!

In the middle of a hellish heatwave. Outdoor gig this afternoon. How does one avoid looking like they've wet themselves? Thanks.

@Bodeanly I was trying to politely reference my personal grooming techniques.

Think about it as a continuum from wall to wall shag carpet to bare floors. And the basement refers to the area underneath.

That's good we were outside, just got back. It was brutal. But a great gig...had a bunch of fun. Drank about 2 gallons of water during gig and after...and did't urinate...that's how hot it was.
