"Ooooh my friend, I always hang out with two of 'em 'cause it's better for conversation. See if there winds up bein' any, I don't have to be involved! Fuhgedaboutit." ...................... "it's humid in here tonight, isn't it girls?"

Maybe this'll make ol' Thor feel better:

Once I again, I pose the question - with or without?

This is the wickedly yummy band Civet, in a previous incarnation (I think a couple of the members snagged the name and started over or something). The "chick" in question is far left in the "without" pic.

As much as I'm generally in the "with bass" camp, this one has me questioning my worldview:

Generally go for "with" also, but while with is a fun angle, I love the "without" pic.
 
Can you imagine what it would be like if every member here took their rig outside, pointed it towards Rhode Island, turned it up and dropped an E Bomb all at the same time? Weather patterns would shift, the Earth's rotation would slow, people everywhere would be saying "what the f?"... and Thor would be cured.
What an epic notion...:eek:
I wonder if it would actually be possible to organize something like that, and I wonder what kind of effects it would have?

Anyhow, I hope you feel better soon Thor. I didn't feel well today either; I had to leave class 30 minutes early because I couldn't breathe.
 
Thank you!!! I'm a Southern Illinois girl transplanted to a small town between Orlando and Tampa. I'm about 10 minutes or so from the Magic Kingdom.

Maybe we should just have a party at my house? Or we could do the really big road trip - Start in Detroit, head for Kansas City, then end in Florida - and hit as many places along the way as we can.

Imma go gas up the minivan right now.:D

Does anyone else think we need a better variety of smilies?
 
Welcome her in!!!!
Love young bassists. Shower them with my wisdom. I'm at the age where kids are like omg older kid they're so amazing. But not the old where the kid is like..whatevs old lady

I do - I'm teaching her trombone and some theory, but as far as rock n'roll goes....alas, she plays...(snif)....guitar.

The middle boy is starting on drums this year, and the youngster....well, I have a feeling if he can sing, based on his mischievous personality, he'll be a frontman.

So - I'll be the guy standing in the back, rocking the bass in my kilt.

Or it could be the bass version of the brown note.
 
Kinbaku-bi. Common interests abound, I see. If you don't mind my asking, do you have a preferred pattern? Personally, I'm fond of the karada and the kikkou, but hishi can be really pretty (and comforting) if it's done full body.

As this thread progresses we're finding many of us have this common interest. :)

Kinbaku-bi IS the traditionally correct term. The term Shibari is also correct but really only used in western culture and only fairly recently.

Karada is probably my favorite. Being a leg guy I like Futomomo and Ryouashi Gattai a lot. Styles that can be worn under clothing, such as Matanawa, are super fun. One could spend a lifetime learning Kinbaku-bi. There are so many patterns. It really is a beautiful art form.

Hmmm... chick with bass combined with shibari would make for some amazing photos. We're talkin' serious art here :cool:
 
Not only that, but from Rule #3:

Controversial topics will be VERY closely moderated. Politics and religious debate/discussion are not allowed in any forum unless specifically allowed by the forum's posted rules ("sticky" threads).

Totally, if it's not about music or kink it doesn't belong here. LOL.

Well, maybe food too... Man I'm hungry. Think I'll go to In-n-Out on the way home.

No pun guys, that's a burger chain in the Southwest. The BEST. Especially after a gig. (No rule about food is there?)

And to keep on topic... Chicks with Bass should get free In-n-Out! ;)

Ryouashi Gattai and Matanawa are both fun and beautiful. Futomomo is interesting and beautiful, but I have a lower back injury, so it's sometimes very difficult for me to wear for long periods of time.

Are you familiar with Naturally Twisted?

Speaking of burger chains...Burger King was the site of our post-gig shenanigans in my first "real" band. I just stumbled upon a video in which our rhythm guitarist had drank too much soda and proceeded to vomit all over the parking lot. Seeing him throw up made me throw up. Seeing me throw up made out lead guitarist/camera person throw up. The force of my hurling was so intense that I got a nose bleed from it.

Throughout that video there's a smattering of gig footage as well as new member [3/5 of us] interviews and other precious gems.

Shame those guys weren't motivated enough. Those were definitely the good old days.
 
We're not a judgmental lot here.

So - did you mean you start out drinking Old Granddad and switch? Or that it's the first thing you ever drank in your life? We'll need to pick a good poison in October. ;)

Well I was 22 before I even had my first drink.

I wanted something manly so Old Grandad 100 it was. I didn't know what I was in for. Not a fan...but its effective haha.

Lately I've been rocking the SoCo with or without Sprite depending how saucy I'm feeling...or how bad my day was. :p


No promises in October but if it's open I will legit get out there and knock a few back. This isn't an open offer to ALL TB'rs mind you but we Chick vs. Chick With Bass'rs are a special breed. :bassist:

I'm not a big whiskey drinker - but when I do, it's a shot made with Crown as a rule (Washington Apples, Breakfast in Bed, Water Moccasins, etc.). Mostly I drink vodka with cranberry or something random - depends on my mood. Some days, only a beer will do - but I'm finicky about my beer.
