Off Topic Bald bassists rule

[adouglas]

Just ran across this at TL's site....

Tony Levin and Lee Sklar. hahahahaha

I note here that Ed Friedland is also bald.

So am I. And for the record the ONLY things I have in common with these guys are that I play bass and I have no hair.

But unlike Jack, I DO have eyebrows.

..... and what if you are not bald ?

Shave your head ? No !

You just have to wear a dress and a cowboy hat, to rule as a bass player !

 

[Duarte]

Don't you mean "bassists with intensely cool facial hair rule"?

But unlike Jack, I DO have eyebrows.

Thanks, you made my day!

Bald bassists may rule
But grey ones are cool

So, since I am bald and have grey in my beard I am cool and I rule?

You are indeed, as seen in this pic - if you were to use your beard on your head, you would be cool.

Don't say you're not impressed by my paint skills...

You could have at least waxed your legs man!!

Still, even having a full head of hair and being in my late 40's I draw the line at wearing a dress

There'll be no crossdressing on this here ship!

Very impressed!

 

[Nasty_Hitman]

Ah.... just to set some things clear, that's not me on that pic.
If I would enter the stage like this , my bandmates would kick me off in less than a second

The guy on the picture is (of course)the british bassplayer Nick Beggs and his musical abilitys are way better than his taste depending his outfit

So, since I am bald and have grey in my beard I am cool and I rule?

Since I have grey in my hair and in my beard does that mean I don't rule but I'm double cool?

 

[five7]

triple!

Yes Nick Beggs (ex Kaja-Googoo) he is a great player and a great teacher too, I took some lessons from him way back in the early 90's I got a pic of him playing barefooted so he does have some strange dress sense at times.
