300+ posts later, that's funny.Did you ever have 70+ year olds notice when you've put new strings on and have them comment on how great your tone is?

I had the pleasure of playing bass for Zach Ryan’s ‘Wanderers’ debut release. Good kid with great songs!
Ever read any Christopher Moore? One of my favorite authors. In this case, Fool and Serpent of Venice.I like Shakespeare. All the minor characters are named after cold cuts.
The truth comes out. Found a 4003 that is not a dud. And it's awesome. May get me kicked out.

WOW!!! THAT'S AMAZING!!! That guy's apartment looks just like yours!!! 
Dug deep into the checking account, what is saving me is the sale of the (cough, salami splattered JB).
Maybe a bit mellow for you crazy people, but I was just sent this clip from the Derek Hoke gig at Music City Roots from last Saturday. Funny to play such quiet stuff with these guys considering we’re all old punk rock skateboarders. Derek’s favorite band is Fugazi. The drummer, Steve Latanation, is probably best known for the 15 years he spent playing drums for Agent Orange. He’s also my dearest friend on the planet. We’ve been playing together since 1987.
Is it the weather or something? Everyone around here has gone bass-shopping mad. Jeff has the Epi Bird coming and now we learn he's been a sneaky squirrel and picked up a sly Ric.
Did you catch a leprechaun and swipe his pot of gold?
WOW man! I was really trying to listen to "the song" ya know... but my ear was just tuned in to that bass! HOLY [expletive deleted] that thing sounds good!!! Your tone was just magnificent!!! You managed to harness both "classic" and "unique" in a nice open "woody" tone that has zing & definition...

I haven't bought a bass [whistles nonchalantly]
You know, I’ve not really considered getting another one. My current rig has me 100% GAS free and I’ll never want another bass again

Um, yeah. Me either. Not in ages anyway
