if im with the band:
mulvey
guy that knows how the song actually goes
wonderful master of the lower range and rhythm
im not sure if my guitarist actually calls me anything. im afraid that his jaw is gonna lock up or hes gonna get TMJ from how his mouth is when he plays.
not with the band but playing:
"there's a bass player here?"
guy with less strings
unworthy compilation of atoms
probably my favorite though:
"You" or "Hey guy"
:scowl:

"The guy who has to book gigs, schedule rehearsals and maintain the websites in order to justify his presence during rehearsals." That's what the singer tends to call me. He also calls me to pick him up for rehearsals :scowl:
I get "player of the tool of ignorance" from a very good friend of mine (who dabbles with and enjoys bass himself). Hes primarily a music engineer though, so I have plenty of ammo to throw back at him.
In most situations, a bit of fun like that helps form bonds.

"well i know caleb is a very strong bass player so we should make room for him to run his strong riffs"
i dont really know what that means but i think it was a compliment.
right so they call me caleb

superfluous.
extraneous.
huh?
except when they listen to the tracks they make without any bass...
they aren't listening to us when they play anyways, they are primarily listening to themselves and then (if we're lucky) to the drums.
and I wouldn't call them guitards, I'd call them heros (aka guitar hero)
that is except for most of them, only the select few get called a hero

My childhood/best friend still introduces me to people as "Our bass player".The band disbanded 2 years ago...
Yes my best friend is a guitard.

"My bassist" is what my guitarist usually says. I've been playing in a band with him so long because he's not someone I'd call a guitard, as he actually knows the importance of my bass playing to our band's sound.
I think some others have referred to me as "that prick Dan whose amp can go louder than mine."

I'm usually called, "My good friend Jason."
Everyone in the band is great friends, so it's usually first names.
