you know you`re a bass player if...
- you ask "what key is this song in?"
whenever you see a 9 volt battery you're compelled to lick it.
It does kinda taste funny if you do a bunch in a row. And your tongue feels kinda odd for a bit afterwards too. You know your a bass player when double thumbing doesn't sound sexual.
haha i name them
Bass - Jeremy (after the pearl jam song)
Guitar - Rose
to the extent that when my friends/parents ask if i'm going out/who i was with and i say i stayed in with jeremy, they' don't ask me when i got a new boyfriend. I guess it's the only other male my boyfriend will tolerate me telling him i love.
Naming your bass is so fun! Mine is called Lysistrata Theote. And my friends don't think I'm strange if I tell them I'm spending the night with Lysistrata either.
PS Lysistrata is the name of a Greek play by Aristophanes.
