Untrue Facts About The Double Bass.

[David McKinney]

re: #11a, lots of chicks think bassplayers are hot...

maybe not as many as some other instruments perhaps, but plenty

I've dated at least a couple girls who had bassplayer boyfriends in their past, then dated me, then dated (or married) other bassplayers after me...

plus lots of women talk about what a sexy instrument it is...


#11b is a true untrue fact I suppose--unless perhaps it was a tiny tiny bass covered with spermicide....

14) Hey, nice flute playing Dave! There's a woman over there who has been staring longingly at you all through the set.

183) Doublebasses are leading a rebellion against the opressive brass/woodwind coallition. In fact, they have kidnapped their Saxophone Leader and refuse to negotiate.

Jorge,
The saxophone, among instruments, really is a misfit and not a leader. It is made out of brass (or something similar) and is blown somewhat like a clarinet. It is generally classified as a woodwind instrument, but other woodwind instruments don't like it.
Really the validity, or otherwise, of your statement can only be considered after someone posts no 182.

13) If the double bass were a country, it would be Iceland.
