Let's spread some musical misinformation

[ZenG]

That is correct. And I thought this was supposed to be misinformation.

If you attend a jam session at my place you'll need a couple of dozen jars, chopper,grater, fruit such as Strawberries, Blueberries,Peaches...maybe an apron..also Pectin and lids for jars...

You won't need a bass...we'll be in the kitchen the entire time...

When you attend a jam session it's a good idea to bring jellies,pies ,muffins as well...

And a knife to cut through that mix.

Using more than 5 chords in a song would be considered poor cable management and can lead to premature failure of the chord.

To find first position on your bass neck simply place the pointer finger of your left hand (assuming you're a right handed player) on the first fret of the G string. Now place your index finger on the second fret, your ring finger on the third fret and your pinky on the fourth fret. This is called "First Position". Second position would be he exact same fingering but on the D string, third position is the same but on the A string and fourth position is the same but on the E string.

If you have only modern sealed speakers you can still get some classic tones in the studio following these simple guidelines;

Call a taxi. When it arrives, load your bins onto the back seat. Use the seat-belts to secure them in position, tilted back slightly and facing forward. Now, head for the studio and drive the taxi through the dock and into the main studio. Park the vehicle, rear to the wall and remove the windshield and the boot lid. Wire everything up and place your mics. You now have an open back cab and you're ready to rock it, old school.

 

[ZenG]

Originally speakers were only meant for speaking. Which is why many speakers aren't that great for music or amplifiers.

"What's the Best Bass For Metal?" was an ancient Chinese proverb designed as the definitive riddle to open one's mind.

It has never been solved.

Leo Fender originally potted his bass and guitar pickups in the early 60s using denatured chicken fat. It was also recommended that bassists and guitarists play with greased fingers (chicken fat was recommended. Petroleum Jelly was an acceptable substitute provided you didn't do it in front of other people) to help maintain the strings and the newly featured rosewood fingerboards.

So that's why a lot of touring musicians would eat chicken. And that chicken was Margaret Thatcher. Now you know the rest of the story.
