Macca's losing his looks but, thanks to that beard, even Quincy agrees he has the chops, now.
Dusty Hill and Lee Sklar are one and the same person.
Most bass players fart in the key of Eb, but guitarists fart in D#
No one knows why this is

Anyone can become Soylent Green but it takes a real Jazz Bassist to make a good Soylent Blue......

John Petrucci and Billy Gibbons are the same person.
There are bills being voted on in 38 states to ban slapping a bass.

In 27 states, it is already illegal. 16 states are passing redundant bass abuse laws. The Alaska constitution forbids the passing of musical instrument laws.
Prince faked his death. It was a maneuver to end the multiple taxation he was suffering by maintaining several identities. He is now only the unpronounceable symbol; he pays no tax as the IRS does not have software to generate the required text for notices.
Soylent Green Day were originally a Performance Mime Act from Gloucestershire, England, best known for their post-punk interpretation of The Wurzels' "Oy've Got a Brand New Combine Harvester"
After their radio performances attracted serious attention, they tried to break America starting with a tour of California but, in an April Fool's Day joke that went tragically wrong, they were macerated by a Massey Ferguson; the resultant slop being discharged into a polythene lined basket case. Their locally formed support act (originally called "Shirley, You Can't Be Serious" - but that's not important right now) realized that the gig would be a disaster if the headliners were off the poster, so they quickly changed their name in the first known case of Identity Theft.
Although they were serious players, the guitarist - for a bet - ingested copious amounts of their liquefied benefactors and suffered almost instant amnesia, only able to remember the major chords G A B C D E
Sadly, it's a degenerative disease and by the time of recording "Boulevard of Broken Dreams", Cmaj had been forgotten. The other two members work around him, fearful of a lawsuit if the truth is ever told.
In the middle of the day, from the bottom of a deep well, if you look up, you'll be able to see Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, Elton John, Bono, Rick Astley, Andrew Loyd-Weber and others. And, on a good day, you can see the entire original Broadway cast of Cats.
"Suddenly, Senator Liebowitz realizes he has come to the debate without his bill..."
There will be a recount. Several bills went missing, possibly due to a misunderstanding about suggestions of getting one's ducks all lined up in a row, unfortunately the suggestions were made at the opening of the hunting season. Canarde a l'orange canapé, anyone?
Even unpacking a bass from its gigbag in broad daylight, may become illegal.
When will legislators learn? You can pass all the laws you want banning it, but there will still be rogue bands playing accordions, banjos, and bagpipes.
The picture below shows Leo Fender with the original design concept for a left-handed version of his glorious invention. "Boss, with due respect, we thought about something different when you suggested to invert the design..."
Chewbacca soon realized why his strings kept on muting !!!!!
