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

Speak for yourself. I'm approached by more women than the other members of my bands. I once even had a girl come up and say she loved the way my bass vibrated the booths at the bar we were playing, because she apparently "enjoyed' herself a couple of times that night just from sitting in them.

And... I'm sure Gene Simmons :spit: would disagree with your statement as well :hiding:

Blaming the audience for their reaction is kind of the wrong way to look at it. Much like making music, the success or failure of a joke rests solely in the hands of its author... ;)

Gotcha next time I start a thread in the humor section I will first state "this is just a joke" and of course people will jump on that saying we know it is a joke since it is in the joke section Duh Rt were not stupid hey you didn't call us stupid did you? That too was just a joke ha ha ha

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

Not true. I got lots of chicks however my main reasons for playing bass was I like low end and wanted to beat the cover charge at the bars. If you are interesting enough and have that "turn on kind of cool" you can have the pick of the litter.
:cool: They dont give a hoot what you play as long as you can play them with some class.....:D

My wife says my bass makes her butt vibrate. But, I,ve already got her. See, it ain't the bass playing or guitar playing that gets the chicks. It's the real manly mojo. Either ya got it or ya don't. Haw, haw, haw.

One of my favorite tricks is to bring a hottie up on stage and have her stand in front of my Schroeder 412R in the "sweet spot" (where all four twelves come together) and hit a low B. It makes more than their butt vibrate - or so I've been told.
