Cheeky CL Troll Thread

I found this amusing for so many reasons that i had to share. The amusement level made me pick the Humor category. Mods - feel free to move if you feel compelled. Otherwise enjoy the yuks. I wonder if the band name is "Grumpy Old Men"?

Hi,

For posterity:
************************
Bassist wanted for Hard Rock/Metal band (Hamburg)



Bassist needed for Hard Rock / metal band. Looking to go on tour. No one under 30 years old please. We don't want to waste our time with young people who waste everyone's time. the music is new so you have to come out and meet us and we'll show you the music. We will not send anything because we do not have anything and even if we did we want to meet you first. We are all seasoned veterans with much touring experience and recording experience. Some of us have been on labels before so we're not looking for people who are not seasoned veterans. You must be a seasoned veteran. Know your chords scales and keys. Please do not call if you are not someone who does not know any notes on your neck.

I'm not sure what the poster means by that triple negative in the last sentence.

Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

"Looking to go on tour" and "the music is new," but "We will not send anything because we do not have anything."

Good luck with that.

Rock on.

Don't call if you know the notes on your neck. Or have good grammar.

Well it IS Hamburg!
People form Pittsburgh are called Pittsburgers. Do you know what people from Hamburg are called?
Germans

 

[GIBrat51]

Well, I guess I'm out. I just checked my neck, and - some hair and a small mole; but, no notes.. Just as well; I don't want to commute to the East Coast, anyway...
