Let's spread some musical misinformation

Anthony of RHCP was placed in a private facility late last night after being
confronted by friends and bandmates in what is being dubbed a "mustache intervention."

The best place to find the ultimate guitar player for your next project is at GC early on a Saturday morning.
Actually, this very true. The “real” musicians are still in bed!

Pffffft. Everyone knows that the real pros hang out on craig's list. And the stranger the ad, the more musical the group.

But you can't jam, you can only remember jams, or plan jams.

“The rule is, jam to-morrow and jam yesterday—but never jam to-day.”
“It must come sometimes to ‘jam to-day,’” Alice objected.
“No, it ca’n’t,” said the Queen. “It’s jam every other day: to-day isn’t any other day, you know”

But after rewrites Grace Slick dropped those particular lyrics.

It doesn’t matter how well you can play, if you don’t have a boutique instrument, everybody will laugh at you. You will never be taken seriously and your cheap instrument will only cause you to be mortified.



I'll go one step farther - if you didn't spend at least as much for your bass as the bass in the following link then you might as well use it for firewood because I'm sure it sounds like ass and probably shouldn't even be seen in public:

And conversely, the more you spend on your bass, the better you play...and thd progression is exponential. If you could get your hands on the Bass of Doom, you'd play and sound exactly like Jaco at his best.
