I play G, C, D. If your songs are not in G, please transpose them into G. If your song has an Em or Bm or anything off the wall I will probably sit out that chord. Or I could learn those notes for $30 each. If you want me to do fancy stuff like go back and forth between G and D while you hold a G chord, forget it because I'm a "pocket" player. Minimum $100 per gig within a 5 mile radius of 39202. $5 per mile travel charge for other areas out of town. Please make sure your gigs are on a JATRAN bus route, or you can pick me up at my place. Must be home by 11pm due to previous legal hassles. No gigs within 500 yards of schools, parks, or playgrounds."[/quote] Edited February 10, 2012 by Nibody Quote

flyfisher Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 And there was me thinking I could never make a living out of playing bass. I play notes other than G,C,D but have never thought to charge £30 for each one of them. What a mug I am! I can also "[i]do fancy stuff like go back and forth between G and D while you hold a G chord[/i]" . . . bloody hell, I should turn pro. Quote

discreet Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 He's definitely a 'pocket' player. Billiards, I was thinking. Quote
noelk27 Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 So, "off the wall"? Wonder if he's a friend of Michael. Quote
lettsguitars Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 Funny as f**k! Obviously somebody having a public go at [i]their [/i]bass 'player'. Quote
EdwardHimself Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 Wow I wish that guy lived a bit nearer, he would be perfect. Although unfortunately we're doing a gig that is only 497 yds from the local primary. Oh well. Quote
