definately not. unless you hear stuff like hatebreed.
blasphemic!
So untrue http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cK2hruTkUVA
go listen to victor wooten -_________- he makes a guitar solo sound more boring than anything else
^this
Ha ha ha ha, okay there buddy, ha ha ha.
I think you misspelled bass…
you listen to the wrong music then.
Unless you are Flea for the Red Hot Chili Peppers (Blood Sugar Sex Magix era and earlier)
flea still rocks, even if his band cant hold down a guitarist and his lead singer grew a brostache.
Or John Entwistle or John Deacon or John Paul Jones
or John Myung
or Cliff Burton
^ Way to break the combo.
Or Paul McCartney
or Les Claypool.
Obviously posted by someone who doesn’t understand bass guitar.

^ THIS (because everybody else did it)
^ This (because this guy obviously has mojo(jojo))
C-c-c-combo breake~e~er!!

LOL. Posted by someone who doesn’t have any idea WTF to do with a bass. Hitting the same note over and over again may qualify as “bass” but not music.
I’ve seen actual musicians play bass, put hundreds of notes into 3 minutes perfectly harmonizing with the whole band and blow my fkin mind.
I’ve seen “bass players” who know about as much about music as I do, and yeah…they suck.
Bass players can be what make or break a decent band. There are loads of disgustingly good prog bassists out there that really use their instrument to enhance the mix, instead of just playing root notes and harmonies. Dan Briggs being the most prominent example I can think of.
^ This × ∞
so shallow
Dude needs to listen to some real bassists. Even beyond the obvious ones of Flea and Les Claypool, you have people like John Myung (Dream Theater, Platypus) or Pete Trewavas (Transatlantic, Edison’s Children)…
…and let’s not forget Lemmy…
Jaco Pastorius?
Another very good one to include.
Don’t forget Cliff Burton, Dave Ellefson and Michael Lepond!
Nah, Ellefson, to me, at least, is more of a rhythm bassist. He holds down a really tight rhythm but rarely deviates.
Stanley Clarke?
Steve Harris (Iron Maiden)
Was waiting to see that one.
Justin Chancellor (Tool) and Paul D’Amour (formerly Tool) should be mentioned as well.
Paul Raven (Prong)
Is it any wonder you are too cool to fool?
RE, RE, RE, RE, RE, RE, REPOST
GOSH YOU ARE SO AHEAD OF THE INTERNET.
Whoever made this, clearly never heard jazz music in their lives.
or hardly any music
You know it’s a stereotype right? No need to be butthurt about it.
Sidenote: Evan Brewer = one of the best bassists ever.
this. in total
Clearly not appropriate for double/upright bass players either.
As opposed to Bass Battle: D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D
Nobody likes the Bass player, If he does go to the party, he can only get the good looking girl’s… best friend.
At least he’s part of the band, unlike the drummer.
Hey, bass player. Look at the bass player. Look at that smile, there’s sadness in that smile. Look at that chord structure, there’s sadness in that chord structure. Look at him flail like the wailin’ wall with nothin’ but stubby fingers and a dumb look on his face. He don’t know it but he’s balding…spiritually. But everybody hates the bass player. No one invites the bass player to the party after the show.
^This, Kids in the Hall Win
what…
biff i resent your implication and s**t, if there is no drummer you have no band. ask anyone who is in a band and they will tell you. I’m proud to say I’m a drummer, cuz i keep the music together at its core. if it wasn’t for the drumming in every song you would just have a cluster-f**k of bass, guitar, and vocals with no rhythm or timing.
As a guitarist ive got to say say things can get ugly when there isn’t a drummer around
Well you have all wrong, you can play music with just a guitar. or just a drum. And you can keep the beat with no drums. The White Stripes don’t use Bass. Socci and Pency play with no drums. David MeShow play the Drums with a keyboard.
It’s music.
^^ this quite a lot
U mad, everyone with a narrow perception of what music is?
How many bass players does it take to change a light bulb? None, the pianist will do it with his left hand.
Bass guitar is for when I give up on guitar. Just kidding, I’ve heard some good bass guitarists.
Billy Sheehan.
Totally FAIL….
this is directed toward crappy Ibanez players not all bass players. you don’t have to defend the good ones.
a wild steve harris appeared
1 Minute in…
thank you! i loved rancid when i was a kid, not too into the new garbage(wtf are they doing). but matt freeman is one of the best bassists around. look up give em the boot solo…. ten minutes long… crazy as hell.
Beat me too it! F*** yeah, Matt Freeman!
Posted by a “bass hater” and/or a plain ignorant
Yeah, maybe he was playing E string alot(he maybe using this resource to build tension and create expectation or simply a passage), we’ll never know unless someone posts the actual video or audio file to hear it and/or see it in context
My mother can play potato.
It would be funnier if it was B,B,B,B,B,B, because that’s what he’s got written on his hand, like he couldn’t even remember it.
He thought he was playing a 5 string
He’s got the key change written on his hand so he doesn’t forget.
Come on guys, Cliff Burton from Metallica.
Listen to some Anesthesia (pulling teeth)
OR wa can have for a guitar player from a Metal band :
Droped’ D D D D D D D ————
The idiot squelches in their ignorance, like swine in mire… beyond their reach lays the intricate pathway to enlightment… knowledge is the map and the master key… you are losing your time crticizing someone else’s vision of art… Because beauty is in the eye (or ear, in this case) of the beholder…
Guitar Solo? Play A-pentatonic up and down. Acquire groupies.
The music I listen to is better than the music you listen to, even if we listen to the same thing. If I’m hearing it, it’s better, it just is, get used to it you pile of wood that is 2′ thick and 3′ long.
Can`t decide what is more funny. The traditional (and veeeeeeeeeeeeeeery old) joke about bass players (btw, same stereotypes exist about viola players), or people who can`t even smile at themselves.
I play my bass guitar. And I collect jokes about bassists. For not a single joke can make me worse (or destroy my faith in my bass). And not a single praise can make me better.
That’s some bada$$ charity you’re running, Briggs!
Insert NO meme here.
Alex Webster anyone? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7W5V2fSUMxc
WELL FOR WHAT IT’S WORTH… I play keys first, guitar second, and I’m learning bass. I’m best at playing the keys, and several people had it right that you don’t *NEED* a bass player, or a drummer, or a keyboard player, or a guitarist, or whatever, to play music. However, having each piece is very useful in a band.
Now that being said, I think the joke is hilarious, and a similar joke can be made about playing synth/pad on keys. And for what it’s worth, unless you’re playing synth pop or electronica, it’s the keyboard player who doesn’t get invited to the party, not the bass player.
Akiyama Mio begs to differ.
Have any of you children heard of Geddy Lee???
