Give me your best advice!!

It is imperative, when seeing a band, that one wears the T-shirt of said band. And under no circumstances is it acceptable to NOT buy their latest merch and immediately wear it/show it off so that everyone knows *you're* the biggest fan. This is the essence of true coolness.

Always remember,if they don't find you handsome they should at least find you handy!

If you're ugly, make sure you're wealthy. If you're wealthy, make sure...no, no, you're good.

 

[Awesome Sauce]

Nobody is ever as cool as they think they are. Except me. I'm ****ing awesome!

 

[Awesome Sauce]

PLEASE make eye contact while eating a banana

Fixed.

You can't buy love; but you can rent it for an hour.

Despite common perceptions, it is, in fact, entirely possible to win an internet argument; so keep at it!

Best advice my father still gives me every time I'm about to get off the phone with him... "Keep a stiff upper lip and never let your meat loaf"....hahaha!!!

 

[Awesome Sauce]

Lifting a 212 cabinet and a separate head is always easier than lifting a 212 combo, it is also much more convenient and always sounds better.

Tube amps always sound better than solid state amps. Especially when half the tubes are blown.

1600W is not enough for a cafe gig. You need at least 2000W.

Effects pedals are only for guitar players. Except a BDDI. Anyone who doesn't have a BDDI is clearly not a professional bassist.

5 string basses should always be tuned BEADG. Only Fieldy is allowed to drop-tune. Up-tuning is not even a real word. Just look in the dictionary.

Relic'd basses are just for pretentious upstarts. Besides, it is actually physically impossible to relic a bass to look like natural wear. I am pretty sure that Einstein proved that early on in his career.

I'm enjoying this thread immensely. I really hope the OP doesn't listen to any of my advice.

Mom always told me "Be sure to have clean underwear on." I guess she wanted the paramedics to know the skid marks were fresh. :/

Don't ever put pineapple on a pizza.

Blasphemer!

When selling a relic'd bass, be sure to note it's condition and any flaws.
