Can someone do me the favor of turning the emote the other way round so he's playing the right way round (lefty).

No.

 

[EdHunter]

YI!

 

[Fassa Albrecht]

No.

Pretty please with Geddy Lee on top?

His cottage is two down from my family's. I could put a good word in for you if/when I see him.

I haven't seen him yet but my mom and stepdad see him every spring and fall at the community meetings and have also had dinner with him.

I'm off to see Rush in concert in May....I cant wait!

Can someone do me the favor of turning the emote the other way round so he's playing the right way round (lefty). It's biased towards all the righties otherwise!

AND WE LIKE IT THAT WAY!

Well, now that you say it that way, let me recoinsider my previous response...

Okay, reconsideration done. Your answer is...

I don't...

So the norm should be changed for a lone dissenting opinion?

You will have to earn a left handed bassist through coalescence, persuadance, and perseverance!

Strange, youtube vids used to be blocked at work. This is clearly a trap to catch me not working.

Someone DID post a left handed bassist on here once...I forgot to save it.

Also, there's a couple of hundred lefty TBers...you know, the people who play bass the right way round.

The left way round?

Total Members: 168,383

Couple hundred, being generous here, lets say: 500

500 is x% of 168,000 (rounding for sake of ease)

500/168,000 = 0.0029

0.29%

Again, dissenting opinion. Would you care to round up a posse?

Its not called right handed because we use our right hands, but rather because its the right way to play. You lefties get whats left over.

Again, dissenting opinion. If you played the right way, you'd say the same about lefties. It could be said that 99.71% of TB members think lefties look awkward. Who knows, maybe some of that .29% would even agree that lefties look awkward playing bass.

There is no such thing as the 'right' way to play bass. And the only reason that righties get the upper hand in music is the historical bias towards right-handed people.

Hell, in medieval times being left-handed was enough to get you a charge of witchcraft and the death penalty.
