HOMER plays BASS on the SIMPSONS !

[Bassamatic]

If you didn't watch this last night, it was hysterically funny, and very poignant to us bass players. Homer takes Lisa into "Guitar Central" and ends up buying a ton of bass gear and starting a band called "Covercraft" with the other dads. If you didn't see it - try to watch it online. Here's a clip:

I always wondered why I started playing bass instead of theremin or something. Now I know.

It was a great bass episode up until the part where Abu leaves the band, but a bass player had to have written the show up to that point.....I was laughing out loud!

One of my favorite Simpson's ever... Always knew Homer was a bass player waiting for the opportunity. I kept expecting him to log onto TalkBass in the episode.

So, what kinda bass did you think Homer was playing? Schecter? Hadean?

Ahh ....man missed this one too funny. Love the Simpsons.

 

[AGH]

Loved every minute.

HA! I forgot about the "muscular stumps" !! Glad I recorded it - gotta watch that again tonight. I was laughing so much I missed much of the dialog. Be sure to check out the names of the other "big box stores" in the shopping center as they drive in to "Guitar Central" !!

That headstock reminds me of a Yamaha rbx style bass...

Look at the headstock and the p/j: Yamaha.

Doesn't Harry Shearer still write for The Simpsons ?
I think he still does voices...

 

[iriegnome]
