Old Basstards Club

[mrjim123]

EDIT: The original post is below. I've since dropped the age requirement, after numerous requests (some of them from real bastards!).

Here's the deal: to be a member you have to be at least 50, and admittedly somewhat of a bastard. Being as goofy as a soup sandwich also helps.

Our motto - "Get off my stage!"

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

And assign your own d*mn numbers!

I'm only 47, so I'll have to wait 3 years.
Goofiness already taken care of.

Haven't been called and Old Bastard yet, but I certainly meet the age requirement

 

[kesslari]

2 years to go, rest of requirements met, Dammit!

 

[aus_bass]

Yup, been called a grumpy old bastard, many times. Dang it ! I'm only 46.

 

[T. B. Player]

I think I would apply for a number when I can't carry my rig anymore...If I'm still able to do that, I don't consider myself old.

 

[OldBluesGuy]

I make the age requirement - just hit 52, but I'm not sure how much of a bastard I am. I do like pretending I'm a bastard, but that's more because I like acting goofy to amuse the family.

Hey ya old bastard...I'm only 47...does that make me a young bastard?

 

[jazzbo58]

Jim

I'm 57, grumpy, play a late 60's Gibson shorty (lefty) which I've had since......well, the late 60's, can't slap (and don't want to learn), and just might be a bit of a bastard.....I guess you had better sign me up!

I am a veteran old bastard, and proud of it! So, how have you been you old bastard?

 

[gweimer]

Yeah, sign me up.

 

[RustyAxe]

I'm 55. I play bass (have since '69). I'm a bastard. The guys in the band call me "PHB" ... pointy haired boss (from Dilbert).

My quote "LISTEN! ... The beat is right HERE!"

I'm 57, been playing since '67, and wonder why all these young punks (under 50) are sucking up oxygen on this thread

Now......who wants to be #2

 

[excane]

I'll only be 30 in a week.....

I've got the bastard part down cold.....guess I'll have to wait it out for a while.

 

[jmacke]

I'm 59 next week. Blew up my Peavey 400B amp last week. GRUMPY???? never let it be said. Cant stand these smart arses who slap and play high notes all the time!! Bass is for kickin people in the goolies, not to be heard in ears. What? I cant hear too well anymore.

 

[cardboardJoe]

I'm 50 and as f***ed up as a football bat.
I don't need no stinkin number.

...I have 5 years to go, but I'm qualified otherwise...and are you sure that isn't a basketball helmet you're referring to?
