Poor guy couldn't even get on the stage

[sigterm]

I'm not really into dudes at all, let alone bald dudes, but I guess he does hold that tambourine with a certain melancholic charisma. I may take up violin so as to scootch in on that keys player- heck maybe she'd be grateful for not having to worry about some of the synth lines?

Haha I can't tell who is who is playing what on that stage

All together now..."Fire the Drummer!"

Which makes me miss Jay Boogs, all the more...

... and I was this close to being over him.

Thanks, Matt... .

I went to a bridal show last night and........

Wait.....WHAT????
You went to a ............a.........a.......

WILLINGLY?????

Oh, well.
Slow nights.......we've all had 'em.

Holy crap I'm 99.9 percent sure I used to play with that trumpet player before he moved to New Orleans... (he still owes me money...) LOL

Hi,

I went to a bridal show last night and there was a wedding band playing. I'm looking all around for the bass player and then suddenly I spot him. I had to take a pic for you guys. I know the stage was a little small....but c'mon!
This sums up being a bass player. Kid was really good too and had a real nice LPB Jazz.

There have been many nights when I wanted to be off the stage because the drummer or guitar player were too MU$T@NG$@LL% loud. Sometimes I will walk to the farthest corner of the stage away from all the noise.


Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

Been there done that, did not get a t-shirt. Played in a five-piece band I had to stand off the stage.

 

[Hounddog409]

I agree. He could have totally fit on that stage. Really bad band move, IMO. Doesn't look good. Especially for a showcase.

Maybe the dude wants to be there due to stage fright or something.

I’m like that on a big stage, never mind a small one. Except for the beard. Which I envy. Hmmm I have beard envy, I must think about this.

My polka band has played a few St. Patrick's Day gigs at The Jazz Kitchen in Indy. The stage is so tiny we had to tell our keyboard player he couldn't play because he wouldn't fit. I stood inches behind our accordion player and I was just praying he hadn't eaten too much corned beef and cabbage that day.

 

[klejst]

Pretty typical really.

 

[ThinCrappyTone]

Was the drumme’s nam Rose, by any chance?

 

[Watchootognbout]

Why was the rostrum even necessary?
They could have all had room if they were all on the floor.

 

[McFly]

Looks to me like that spot had a nice leanin' post.
He just found his comfort zone...

 

[Pops OB]

Why all the apoplectic fits about where the bass player is standing?

 

[JoeWPgh]

I gotta say, I see no problem here. The bass player look pretty comfy leaning against the pillar.

 

[basslust]

I think I would rather be there than standing where the sax player is, with the lights literally right on me as I'm wearing a shirt, vest, and tie!

Ehhhh, it's just the bass player. Not like it's anyone important, right? Ha, at least they didn't give him a wireless set up and an ear monitor, and tell him to stand outside.

 

[MonsterRain]

Hey he pulled off the ultimate bass player move.

He stood out.

Guaranteed someone else there noticed the one guy who wasn't facing forward and wasn't on the stage. Now, sure that probably wasn't behind this as he is a big guy and probably felt more comfortable standing there and was happy to be able to hear himself and play while getting paid but I like to think he did it to stand out.

Cheers to this guy for at least making someone go, "Why's that guy over there?"

 

[somebrains]

Maybe he was looking at the chick the whole time.
I'm curious what she looks like from other angles.
