I could be wrong, and haven't looked at every post, but.....

I don't think the intent of the OP was to say "Quick! Name every band you recognize simply by hearing the bass player!!!!"

I think the meme he posted is circulating the interwebz.....where 99.9999999% of people would NOT recognize a single band by the sound of the bass player.... and he posted it for a good chuckle.

Sooooooooooooo.....yeah. K..... I'm just gonna......you know.....uh.......go now.

Maybe if we re-post this every hour or so, people will eventually read it and understand what's going on here.

You're in good company.

Hi,

Perhaps to us the original meme is not hilarious but I was hoping to use it as a vehicle for some funny bits. I see Mr. @rtslinger saw his shout-out.


I'm from the land of the easily entertained.


Thank you for your indulgence,
