Things you will *never* hear bass players say

[Matty Koff]

these sandals and white socks will look great under the lights

Actually a lot around these parts just might say that.

I was at the DMV the other day and I swear I was the only male wearing flipflops/sandals without socks. I saw at least like 5 people with socks and sandals/flipflops. It made me question whether it suddenly became acceptable to wear socks with sandals at some point and I missed it.

 

[2cooltoolz]

We need to play more ballads!!!

 

[Michedelic]

Could we not do Another One Bites the Dust for this set?

Actually, I would say that. It never did anything for me, and by the time that tune came along, I was over them anyway.

 

[ACRock]

The tone is all in the wood, strings, and electronics

 

[dkelley]

Turn up your guitar amp!

 

[dkelley]

The guitar's not loud enough.

damn beat me by like 4 pages

 

[Frankie Fender]

The drummer needs to play louder, and with more toms.

 

[bumble yeti]

Does this bass make me look fat?

 

[Bassiclees]

"I just couldn't dial in my tone on that Mesa Boogie Subway head."

 

[REV]

Sure I can haul your drums!

Sorry, I have said this to a number of drummers.

 

[REV]

Why can't we do Mustang Sally at the end of each set?

 

[gustobassman]

We love it when you hit every cymbal you own in each fill you do. Especially the China. More of that.

 

[Leigh Semmens]

I don't need another Bass.

 

[El_Charro]

"It's too low"…

Or if you prefer the Futurama version:

Thanks! \m/

 

[El_Charro]

"I love being around a lot of people"…

Thanks! \m/

 

[dkelley]

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

I don't get it?

 

[stevecaronna]

No thank I don't want to take a solo.

 

[Jesuguru]

"Such thicker strings, we deserve to pay FIVE TIMES the price guitarists pay for theirs."

 

[Merlo79]

I've said like a dozen of these, some fairly often

I
This song really doesn't need bass in it.

I have said that one. Song needed a cello, not bass. It was one of my songs. It got keyboard strings as we'd forgotten to hire a cello for one song, apparently.
