Don't become a bass player

[rtslinger]

When you were young you decided to become a guitarist to get the chicks
But when you tried to join a band they already had 3 guitarist
So you decided to become a bass player
So you became a bass player figuring you could still get the chicks
Soon you found out the chicks don’t love bass players so you got no chicks
Don’t decide to become a bass player and you’ll get the chicks

Keytar players are the real chick magnets.

To hell with that, I rattle panties right off with my Bongo power.

 

[chaosMK]

That might be your experience, definitely not mine!

 

[St Drogo]

Form a duo of bass and drum. See what happens

I seem to get hit on a lot and I'm a bass player......I don't get chicks, but thats becuase I'm married.

That is the worst synopsis about bass players EVER. I might even go as far as to say the most stupid as well. I'm guessing this is another topic to get bass players riled up...lame. If you're really in it for the "chicks" only, don't ever bother becoming a musician.

(most) Chicks in the audience can't tell a guitar from a bass.

It has to do with how most bass players just stand as far back as possible from the front of the stage. And they don't have the moves that attract the chicks - (like looking at the drummer through a song is going to attract a chick?)

Don't blame your bass, bro.

Stand up front and shake your thang - and sing! Damnit, sing!

Bassist > drummer

i get more than the rest of my band, dont follow any preconceived notions

Believe it or not, some of us didn't start playing bass simply because there were too many guitarists in a band we wanted to join - and I'm sure you won't get any chicks when you play bass like a dejected guitarist.

Is this a spoof of those direct tv commercials?

Lighten, up, folks. The dude was making a funny.

I found my wife playing bass. Not only did I find her, but she's significantly younger than me. Double score.

I have always played bass. I'm learning guitar now.

 

[Tampabass]

What kind of bass was she playing when you found her playing bass?

This is me. Also- I started playing bass when a some friends needed one for their band(gtr/gtr/drums). 35 years later, I think fake it pretty nicely.

It was NEVER for the chicks, I started playing bass for the love and passion I had for music in general, If you are in it for the chicks, then you are in it for the WRONG reason...... IMO... Lame!!!!!
