I've been lurking for a while; it's finally time to pay my dues.
Please be nice!

With bass, although you can't really see it (I don't have anybody to help me take photos!):

Basses alone(if you have to pick, I'd recommend this category):

Orange is my favorite bass and always will be. It's been with me longer than any of my friends!

Sheesh, I've missed a lot.

Too many great new pics to sort them all out, but since Pocketgroove's are right above me, I will comment on those. Gotta go without bass because your eyes are closed in both the bass pictures! For me, eyes are usually the first thing I notice about a woman and I find the right ones incredibly sexy!

But great pictures everyone! I love the new Deej pics (is the bird from Angry Birds?), love the new Sam pics and Buchananbass pics (very hard to choose between paddle and bass), love the hair evolution pics from Evil Undead. Sorry if I missed anyone! They've all been great!

And PassivAggressiv--you're in c-bus, too! And you're playing the VIP! And I'm so pissed because I've got a gig that night, too, at On the Rocks in Dublin! But still very cool to bump into another local on this thread. Hope to meet you in person at a gig in the future! Check out siblingrivalrylive.com and tazerband.com

Thor, thanks for keeping this show on the road. We all appreciate your efforts.

Ok, off to bed!

Thanks! It takes a while to get used to, but believe me, the orange is a good thing! ;)

@DonovanJM: I can't smile and concentrate at the same time. It's always one or the other. ;) Plus, I'm pretty serious unless I'm with people I know well, and it takes a very unique individual to get a smile out of me

well, I guess I caused such a distraction with my devotion to Sam, that her shots were left without votes. My apologies. Without further adieu, here is my run-down:

Ok....No bass, so automatic "chick". This is the most, "I'm a rock-star" of these pics due to the shades, and a little bit of 'tude showing. I like the pic, I like the color and quality of the pic. I like your profile. I like the flannel. I like the earring. I like the necklace. I don't like not seeing your eyes, tho' it does have a Julie Slick vibe to it.

Again: automatic "chick" You look all sweet and vulnerable in this and your eyes, well, they pretty much own this pic.

I guess "almost auto with" I have to pretend it's a bass, the contrast is too strong, the light reflecting on the guitar is distracting. When I'm not distracted by the light reflection, it looks like you are mad at me and thinking about hitting me with the guitar. Then I look again at your eyes and it looks like you may cry. I want to hug you, but you will probably bash me with the box. My least favorite pic, because it plays with my head too much.

"chick" The pic speaks for itself. Beautiful. You can see a little of your sense of humor in this one, too! Love it.

The Lemons and ggoats I can write off as being +++holes just for the sake of being one, but this is the first comment that actually hurt me.

Starting this was not, I reapeat NOT a cry for attention. I was as I have stated before a play on the notion that chicks with basses are always hotter than one without.

Why does that comment hurt more you may ask? Because it implies that someone who is my size has to "cry" for attention. this is one of the reasons I love the kink community is because the vast majority of people are more accepting of all body types. I can have a day where I feel worthless and fat and want to die but then I go to an event dressed up and am told how beautiful I am.

I don't cry for attention. I command it. I command it by saying **** you I'm going to be me whether you like it or not.

ggoat: As a matter of fact Chaz Bono is one of my heroes. He had the guts to be true to himself and went through a lot emotionally and physically to be what he was meant to be. For that he is more of a man than someone like you will ever be.

I was also quite happy to have the only pictures I posted be the original ones. Any others were posted because they were asked for.

Deej, I wouldn't worry. What you have done is brilliant. So what if a couple of people don't get it. It's obvious how many of us do.

You came to the right place if you're looking unique individuals!!

I'm back, :hmm:
---------------------------

Never in my experience of modding on this board have I had to moderate a thread this closely.

I am just flabbergasted that some musicians can't understand that music, like life, has many diverse paths of human experience.

Don't understand someone else's lifestyle? Don't worry, it doesn't rub off.

I would never deny my family, kids, and friends, mostly all creative and musical people, a chance at success, happiness and fulfillment because I didn't like their hair, or shape or gender or orientation. I feel badly that I have seen so many people on this board right now, a MUSICIANS board, react so intensely and with such lack of sensitivity to the lifestyles of other musicians, Just because they are not quite like yours.

Here on TB we embrace diversity, creativity, independence, mutual support and friendship as musicians and people of all genders, races and backgrounds.

Can't dig that? Maybe another board is for you.

Pocketgroove, you are pretty either way. But, I vote "with" as I love pictures of bass playing girls in general. Your pics work either way.

The other thing is that I really like the orange and white precision. I may have to order a pickguard and make something.

Moderator Note.

Don't troll here. Period. You don't want to be THAT GUY.

Trust me...







Deej, I am sorry some people are such jerks, must be the weekend.


I have a gig. Don't worry, I plan to check in when I am back.
:hmm:
:atoz:

I thought it was kind of nice that people could just have some fun, relax, tell some jokes, share thoughts and experiences, pics, recordings and become friends.

Apparently, that kind of experience is too hard for some people. I think for the most part, the bass playing community is one that accepts and embraces diversity, creativity and ongoing personal development and self fulfillment. I truly believe that that is the real core of this board, trolls notwithstanding.

For the record, if you decide to troll here, expect to get hammered.

Quoted for emphasis.

If you troll here with insensitive and hurtful nonsense toward other users, don't expect to be treated to hugs and kisses at the help desk. Thor's doing a great job here with this thread, but working way harder at it than he should have to.

Disrespectful trolling: don't do it. The rules about this are clear, and will be upheld both here and further down the line.
