Don't become a bass player

[klejst]

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

This was me to a T back in the day. In '97 bought my first electric guitar and amp and started playing it. Shortly after some buddies and I got together and had little jam sessions, mostly just messing around, but we also played a few covers and wrote some original stuff. Then a couple years later I joined a band. Already had two guitar players and I did not have any desire to play drums or sing...so I took up the bass and now I am a bass player. Still at it today and I am proud to be one. I can look past and don't let bother me all the stereotypes of being "the bass player." I am both a bassist and guitarist.

Had a gal come up the other night to me onstage and ask my name. I told her, she told me hers, and then she said, "You're lovely."

Ha! I'm the bass player, don't sing, AND I'm 62. Hee,hee, either ya got it or ya don't, LOL. (She was 30-ish).
