Things you will *never* hear bass players say

[Slade N]

Debunked: I have, and often still say both of these things.

are you sure you're a bas player?

 

[JeezyMcNuggles]

Let's hear 'em. I'll start:

Later guys, these three groupies want a tour of my hotel room.

I can hear myself.

You're welcome...cause we never get thanked in the first place.

Hire the drummer.

This song really doesn't need bass in it.

Do you have an extra cable?

Man, I broke a string!

My gear was so inexpensive!

Hey guys, this is my girlfriend.

Let's hear 'em. I'll start:

Later guys, these three groupies want a tour of my hotel room.

To the sound guy: "Am I too loud in the mix?"

 

[Wissen]

Another Root Five tune? Outstanding!

 

[Chris Breese]

To the soundman: "Can you take the high pass filter off of the keys in my wedge, please? Thanks."

 

[JeezyMcNuggles]

"Oh wait, let me tune before the song. I just put on new strings."

I despise new strings. I like my rounds about 6 months old.

 

[dbsfgyd1]

Oh, you can simulate B-3 bass pedals on your keyboard? Nice! Let's hear 'em!

But then you don't have to play "Gimie Some Lovin'"!

 

[JeezyMcNuggles]

The guitar's not loud enough.

I've actually said that plenty of times.

 

[Killing Floor]

The mix is fine!

 

[cmcbass]

My tone is perfect and I don't need any more gear... 2 weeks later, and I'm still loving it!

 

[Samatza]

So where do you plug this cable in then?

"i have made good choices in my life and am a happy person"

 

[juggahnaught]

"I just can't work with this keys player. When I'm playing bass, I like the keys to be stepping all over my bassline, but this guy just sits back and comps. There's no respect!"

 

[2tonic]

No, no,....you guys grab your gear and get to the afterparty. I'll get my SVT out to my car by myself.
It's only one flight of stairs.

 

[Pdaddy1978]

Sure I can haul your drums!

 

[Pdaddy1978]

There's no room in my wallet!

 

[Pdaddy1978]

No problem.... We can wait till tomorrow to get paid!

 

[SirMjac28]

 

[Nightman]

Sure, you can play my bass!

1. I wish the keyboardist would play in the lower registers more often.
2. That wasn't a mistake, I was improvising!
