Now No Minimum Age - Old Basstards Club

After numerous requests to lower the minimum age requirement I've decided to eliminate it. If you feel old you probably are.

Here's the deal: to be a member you only have to be somewhat of a bastard. Being as goofy as a soup sandwich also helps.

Our motto - "Get off my stage!" :mad:

I've got #1. Anybody want to go #2? :eyebrow:

Good idea. Being crotchety is more of a state of mind anyway. If you can be a true curmudgeon at age 25, you've got the gift... :smug:

I'm 51 and when I was growing up, we didn't have all the high tech stuff available today. AAMOF, we used to just beat rocks against our heads to lay down the groove....and we were thankful for those rocks!

Somebody give me a # 'cuz I've got to be in bed by 10.

I'm 51. Having just passed my 25th wedding anniversary, living with this woman has taken a lot of the edge off my bastard-like traits.... However when it comes to music I can be pretty damn persnickety, especially when it comes to my tone.. Has a lot to do with how I feel the music and the resulting groove...
 
There are so few things I'm more inherently qualified to join!

58...characterized variably as a bastard by:

My wife,
My kids,
My employees,
My neighbors.
Other drivers,
but not my dog.

I'm a tail-gater convinced that there is an international network of driving idiots that coordinates the actions of its members to always ensure there is someone who is clueless about where they are going right in front of me at all times.:eyebrow:

I'm crabby that I can't barely hear above 6KHz due to my garage band days (Hendrix, Cream, Yardbirds covers at 120dBA).

My redeeming social value: member of Talkbass that can at least hear BELOW 6 Khz and an owner of a Warwick 5 string Corvette $$ with Sadowsky flats.:bassist:

Do I get a number?:hyper:
 
Since the young cats started their "TB'rs under 21" thread I thought this thread could use a little:
Invalid Link Removed


Since our illustrious leader has chosen not to assign numbers (and has forgotten about starting this thread due to his advanced age) I will start at the beginning and assign them myself.Thank you and get the hell outa my yard! :D

...but I ain't takin' one of your stinkin' numbers, I'm now Old Basstard Agent 86 (which is also my Bacon Club moniker).

Anyone have a problem with that can kiss my fat white hairy @$$....and then get the 4377 of my **********' lawn!

:mad:
That's the spirit old boy!
