Dumb CL Ad's pt 5, Dumbester and Dumberest

OH GOD OF BASS PLAYERS:

Dear God of Bass Players, I, a humble singer and guitar player, and my drummer compatriot, humbly beseech thee to send us a bass player, strong of wrist, fleet of finger, and wisened in the ways of rock and roll, particularly punk, post punk, and garage.

Would that this bass player be over the age of 21, so that we may drink ale together and perform at local taverns. May he or she be in possession of a vehicle with which to travel, and professional quality gear with which to produce tones most pleasing to the ear.

We ask that you grant us a battle-hardened bass player, possessing knowledge of scales, so that when I say "this song is in E-minor," he or she shall comprehend.

May he or she be a punctual bass player, and not a lay-about, a rogue, a ruffian or a villain. In John Entwhistle's name we pray.
Amen.

PS, may he have a full bucket of axle grease, and know how to apply the lubricant liberally so that the Ox cart may roll effortlessly to the Fair.

I go to church and play on the worship team, but this one is a bit screwy. Do tons of everyone else's work for no pay, and you may be pulled at any point with no support or commitment from the church.

Sounds great, guys!

I'm sensing a need in the soft skills department. Literacy would be a good start. Parents may be of benefit as well...
 
This person seems hard-up, so they may accept a lowball, in which case you'd get a great deal on that bass so long as the condition checks out. You may not be able to test the elecs out while it's wearing "Cat Gut strings", but at least it has "up graded P-Bass tuners" which are so much better than J-Bass tuners.

Black Beauty Fender Jazz Bass: 2004 Made In Mexico, up graded P-Bass tuners, Cat Gut strings, this is an awesome Bass for all level players , asking 275.00 OBO! Must play to appreciate how sweet this Bass is, if you're looking for an awesome instrument for use as your every day Bass, this is for you! This is a great "working Axe" that you can bring to your gigs and jam sessions with-out worrying about your priceless USA Fender getting damaged or ripped off! Hurry, hurry deals like this don't come around every day, so make me an offer I can't refuse ;-)! Call me if you have any questions 619-347-5647 thank you!

I
But I am worried about the broken jawn, though. It might be tough to source an original Aria jawn in good condition. Maybe I'd need to think hard about a completely new set of jawns? But a complete re-jawning might be a little too much for me to handle, and might effect the tone. What do you think? Anyone know of a really good re-jawnist? I heard Jaco once used a jawnless bass - can anyone confirm?

And what's the best jawn for metal anyway?

HAHAHAHA this has be laughing out loud for real
 
DOPEST FEMALE RAPPER IN PHILLY/BETTER THAN EMINEM (ALL PHILA.)

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

"Hello! My name is Gia Medley and I believe there is no female lyricist on the planet on my level. I need exposure and radio play NOW. Im ready to take over hip hop. Listen to these 2 freestyles and download my mixtape 100 Bars for free. You can find all my other videos on Youtube. Subscribe and like me on facebook!!"

Here is a small sample of her lyrics:
"Flows got em swimming
Choked in one sitting
Hoes got em knitting
Track suits when I'm sprinting
On the track like a villain
On a crack epidemic
Smack fools when I'm spitting
Like a roach full of venom
They approach me I'm hitting
People poke me I'm pooping
On their facebook
If they probe me I'm killing
I'm staged crook
In a robe like I'm chillin
I'm a stay shook
Feed I'm whole penicillin"

I don't pretend to be a hardcore aficionado of hip-hop music, but even my square, white dude from the country sensibilities know that those lyrics are totally whack.

"Track suits when I'm sprinting. On the track like a villain. On a crack epidemic" indeed. :hmm:
