Soon you found out the chicks dont love bass players so you got no chicks.
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
Actually, in my 13 yr old brain this seemed like a logical step.
Yeah, the guitar slots were already taken, so I was left with bass.
Drums were too expensive and hard to lug around.
Girls always seemed to go for the singers.
I solved that problem by marrying the drummer's sister!

I have been told at shows by a few ladies that the way I use my fingers is sexy. So I guess we all have different experiances.
This^
Plus I love the way it vibrates my body too.
Any show or club i go to to see a band play I'm parked in front of the bass player. I may not be screaming at the singer, but I get my fair share of picks tossed down my cleavage too![]()
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.

Oh great. Now I have to start using picks.
So I have something to toss...

I'm not sure the bass player in my fav band uses them for anything more than grabbing off the mic stand and tossing at us chicks. If he does it's only for a few songs.
