my question is basically do any of you guys agree with these statements? If so, can you explain why bass players are in fact the nicest people one can ever meet?

I'll start with one reason I've heard from a piano player from my last gig- his opinion was that the reason bass players are so nice is simply because there's plenty of work! we don't have to fight for jobs like sax players... anyone care to join in?
"Bass players are the nicest people..... most down to earth".....hmm.....Do I agree with these statements?.....While I am certain there are some exceptions.....

Sounds like someone is blowin some low-note-sunshine up someones shorts . Well, this is the first time I have ever heard this. Maybe I wasn't listening. Oh well, wouldn't be the first time.

I would say this: Whether you want to work or better your social skills; it would be in your best interest to be kind and bring a good attitude to the table; whatever it is you do or whatever the instrument is you play.
