Gibson are going to build P-Basses. They agreed with Fender to pay them $12 for each P-Bass produced.
speaker up?!The best place to put your drink is on your bass amp!
Especially in a wobbly glassThe best place to put your drink is on your bass amp!
mix up some corn starch real thick, pour it on the speaker play music, you now have a dancing mass. (Saw it on the big bang theory)
Shaken, not stirred...The best place to put your drink is on your bass amp!
So others can see it's your amp?The best place to put your drink is on your bass amp!

True. Had a BL that poached everyone's drinks (he was a function-able alcoholic).
"Oh, was that one yours? I thought it was mine."
Back to misinformation:
Notes and their frequencies are actually on a pendulum curve, ie go high frequency enough and you actually come full circle to incredibly low notes.
So when you see a singer shatter a glass, it's actually hitting such a high harmonic overtone that it's a LOW harmonic overtone that rumbles and moves the glass around until it falls on its spot and breaks.
It's not the highs, it's the lows, and this is the real reason you shouldn't put your drink on your amp (unless it's in a plastic cup, then go ahead).

If you put your plastic cup on the amp, alcohol will evaporate from the drink and soon after, the plastic will melt due to the high temperature of the amp.
Unless you have a light weight amp. Light weight amps use light instead of heat to feed the output stage's electron pump. So, the amp runs cooler, and when the set is over you still have a cool drink left.
I get it. Super heavy photons tunneled through a pair of slits. To interfere or not to interfere, that's the question.
And if you set a cat in a box next to your drink, that cat is both dead and alive until he escapes and spills your drink.
Actually, they do echo, but because the frequency of bass notes are so long, part of the note travels backwards in time and cancels itself out.
When playing on stage be sure to bring an 80 foot cable so that you can pass your bass around to audience members during a song and let them have a go at it..
