Offbeat Observations About Music

Oh yeah well irregaurdless of what you may say about them, I don't think I've ever seen a female bass player I didn't develope some kind of crush for. There's a certain je ne sais quoi about seeing a female holding a bass and hearing them pumping out a big round bottom end of the bassy notes of the sonic register penatrating through the cacophany of hard rock guitars and the banging from the drum skins. I think female bass players are importantly talented, I don't know dude, no complaints from me.



oh... missed that one
 
there should be a rule prohibiting cover band's from "posting new tunes" to their myspace pages. if you are a cover band, you, in fact, never have "new tunes" to post. sorta an oxymoron.
 
It was a joke boobs. Not exactly that difficult to recognize.

For the record Kira Roessler is a great bassist, but she's one of the few, and for every Roessler there's ten Deals, Gordons, and D'Arcy Wretzkys to take their place alongside whatever songwriter they fucked to get on the band in the first place.
 
So that line of reasoning doesn't make too much sense to me, just because you can think of 30 females bass players that you think don't cut it, I don't think you can make a blanket statement for women as a whole. You know the same thing could be said about Heavy Metal guitar players, for every one Dime Bag Darrel you can find ten lousy Heavy Metal guitar players because they are a dime a dozen.

Anybody else notice that heavy metal gutiar players make fantastic guitarist?



Yeah me neither.

The flip side of the coin is for every ten Deals, Gordons, and D'Arcy Wretzkys there is one Nikki Monniger, Freddy Feedback, Tina Weymouth & cetra.
 
lauren laverne pointed that out on 6music the other day and then said something like 'everyone knows it...just like everyone knows the vocoder at the end of ELO's Mr.Blue sky is saying Please turn me over'. I didn't know either...then again i hate zz top and like Mr.Blue sky but not all that classical and opera **** in it. Like on the intro to the Stone's you can't always...**** opera and classical ****. i hate it when it ruins good proper songs.
