Lady Gaga strange bass

I just trust my gut. I look at it this way, if she was in a bar I would approach with extreme caution (which is why her recent get up made out of caution tape made me laugh so much).

IN summary I think this bass is just a stage prop concocted of a pile of otherwise purposeful items, now rendered more or less useless. To be honest, this describes the guitar stand in the picture as well.

well seeing how she is a musician, it isn't that far fetched that it does work, or else they wouldn't take the pick-ups out of the Big Al, they would of just got some fake looking things with diamonds as pole peices.

The arguement of whether or not Lady Gaga is a He-She is similar to the god arguement, no one has definate proof unless they see god, or see Lady Gaga naked in this case, but in either way, many will not believe the person in question.

Just to clarify, I'm not dissing her. She does what she does and she is successful and the kids are eating it up with a spoon. But it has been done before...she is not an innovator. Good for her for making a niche for herself.

Saw MP in Pittsburgh in the 1980s and Dsle was wearing this see-thruu outfit. Some guy attempted to jump on the a stage to grab her and she literally kicked him off. I got the impression she could kick several butts and still keep singing.

I dont like Lady Gaga, but when my band plays bad romance the girls get up and start dancing, and thats really what matters. Plus, her music is really easy to translate to a rock band, with all kinds of room for improv and screwing around.

Eh, look close, see the E string that the player is not touching, its veering off the neck, starting at the 15th fret......

i have a extreem dislike for lady gaga

i think shes too focused on looking "diffrent" than her music

beleve it or not but she kinda reminds me of a mix of elton john and madonna (and may have somthing in common with both of them downstairs)

catchy songs but has hyped herself out of her own existence

right now i can think of atleast 4 mags shes on the cover of

over exposure can kill

i wonder whats gonna happen when people get sick of her like they did with britney speres

i think (and hope) that she will go the same way in a few years

but theres only one thing i can say for that "bass"

its ugly and is clearly conseeling somthing like she is

My goal in life at this point is to never hear one of her "songs". So far I'm succeeding. This isn't music, it's bad puppet theater. Put a pair of pants on, will ya? With all the undiscovered talent in the world, this is what the corporate jukebox comes up with as viable music? With the way this industry works, don't be surprised if you're sitting in a rocking chair someday watching a movie she produced and directed.

As far as the bass? So she's strong enough to hold it up. That's about all she can do. I have 3 guitar stands that do the same thing and don't smell as bad.

Way to go, judge something you have no knowledge of or interest in. Should we assume you have personally smelled her or are you putting her down because you don't approve of her "approach"? It can't be about her music, to you it's about what she wears (which is all you confess to know about her). Who died and made you fashion police? That bass is a freak show all on its own, perfect for her!
