Very sad. Not as sad as the Dudepit, in my opinion, but sad nonetheless.

What do you mean?
All the girls I've ever seen at the Dudepit have been treated with the utmost respect, never seen them get 'hit on'. I only saw one instance where a girl was run off for posting false claims (I wasn't involved, nor do know enough of the details to have any opinion on the matter), but that kind of behavior will get you run off regardless of what sex you are.

Yes I am a Laydee and I adore my basses, Duke and Merlin
Im in a punk band full of guys and I have never ever in my 4 years of playing (im only 20) met another female bassist face to face.
Maybe none of them live in the north of England except me.

Ah well I enjoy scaring the teenage guys when I whoop their asses at bass :D :bassist: :hyper:

You live in the north of England?, same here and i am also a bassist, and i've never met a female bassist, mabe we'll meet sometime without knowing it lol
