Nail Soup Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 (Inspired by @stewblack topic about Bass heaven) There's an old joke, based on crude outdated stereotypes unfortunately.....something like: In Heaven the cooks are French, the policemen are English, the mechanics are German, the lovers are Italian and the bankers are Swiss - whereas in Hell the cooks are English, the policemen are German, the mechanics are French, the lovers are Swiss and the bankers are Italian. However the format's OK......... so I had a bash at a bass player version: - In Heaven the bass players have the image of Sid Vicious, the playing ability of Carol Kaye and the ego of John Deacon. - In Hell the bass players have the image of John Deacon, The playing ability of Sid Vicious and the ego of Carol Kaye. Can anyone come up with a bass/musical version? 2 6 Quote

wateroftyne Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 I suspect John Deacon has indulged in far more rock and roll excess than his image suggests. Quote

Heaven is a jazz musician is playing a blues. Hell is a guitarist playing ‘The Blues’. Edited October 24, 2020 by bassace Spelling Quote

stewblack Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 I once put up a curtain pole for a man who's girlfriend is the niece of John Deacon. 1 1 Quote
