- Seriado canadense, siticon, que eu adorava assisitir! esse do "bass player" não pude deixar de não compartilhar aqui,rs.
Canadian sitcon that i used to watch. I couldn´t avoid to share this funny scene, bass player! here is the script:
[Opens with Shadowy Men On A Shadowy Planet playing music, Bruce McCulloch sitting in a chair playing bass. Kevin McDonald appears from behind Bruce]
Kevin: That's the best bass player I ever heard. He's playin' so sweet, I'm gettin' chubby. You know what I like best about the bass player? His neck.
[Bruce bobs his head a few times]
Kevin: Oh, he made a little mistake. You may not have noticed it, but if you did, I think you'll enjoy my tale. Hmmm....
[Singing:] The mother, the father, the serpent, the priest. The foreman, the woman, the widow, the beast.
Hey, bass player. Look at the bass player. Look at that smile, there's sadness in that smile. Look at that chord structure, there's sadness in that chord structure. Look at him flail like the wailin' wall with nothin' but stubby fingers and a dumb look on his face. He don't know it but he's balding...spiritually. But everybody hates the bass player. No one invites the bass player to the party after the show.
Bruce: Hey, what are you guys doin' after the show? Oh, nothin'? Okay.
Kevin: If he does go to the party, he can only get the good looking girl's... best friend.
Bruce: Is Heather coming?
Kevin: [laughing] Heather...The bass player is the loser of the band, yes he is, if you don't believe me take a look at the one you're with. But, there's something beautiful about the bass, sometimes when I listen to it, I--I don't know, I get caught up in the swirl, I'm flying, I'm flying Ma, over a big beautiful lake. He's playing the bass and I'm flying. Sometimes when I land I'm in a different neighborhood, but that's okay, 'cause whenever I listen to the bass player, I always bring cab fare. But after all, aren't we all bass players? Aren't you all bass players? They told me this was a bass players convention, you are all bass... Pick up the beat, pick up the beat. Hide the sadness, and tap your feet.
Singing: The mother, the father, the serpent, the priest. The foreman, the woman, the widow, the beast. Aren't you glad that you're not one?
[Kevin hides behind Bruce's chair and SMOASP begin playing once again]
Classic, best ever!

Yes Pleakley Show the importance of bass.

It's an inside joke...ever seen the Kids in the Hall sketch called "Doors have no bass"?
steal a car...
Always makes me laugh
G.O.A.T.

Si alquien dice que el bajo es una cagada es porque no sabe nada de musica.
El bajo es protagonista, y los bajistas referentes, en todos los generos musicales...
Funk: Larry Graham - Sly & The Family Stone
Jazz: Charles Mingus
Reggae: Aston 'Family Man' Barret - Wailers
Soul: James Jamerson - Motown
Heavy Metal: Steve Harris - Iron Maiden
Musica electronica: Fatboy slim o Justice
El problema no es el bajo sino cuando uno limita su oido a lo que le dice una revista pedorra
*Muy bueno el vid
It's called an inside joke between Kids in the Hall fans.
BUT THE DOORS HAD NO BASS
Martylovescats - Manzarek used a Fender "Piano Bass" mini-keyboard 🎹 which would probably be quite a collectors item today
But only early on. And that stuff ended up sounding pretty thin.
See! Nobody pays attention to the bass player!
MANCUSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Tiene razón mancuso: qué instrumento de verga que es el bajo
🤣😂🤣
Fucking terrible. Does nothing but exacerbate unreasonable stereotypes around the bass guitar, what it's capable of as an instrument, and people's negative attitudes towards it. This just shows the viscious cycle. The only reason people dont like bass, bassists suck and "arent cool" is because people say they aren't. If you try to give lessons, people don't have interest in bass, which leads to fewer good bass players.
A little scenario: There's a band that includes 2 guitar players and a bass player. The bass player is spectacular but the lead guitarist is fucking terrible. The bassist and the lead switch instruments because they know everyone expects awesome lead and don't really care about an interesting bassline, only that theres a rumble the the performance, because that's the stigma that exists. Now the band has an awesome lead player, and the worst guitarist in the band plays the bass. The cycle continues on. This is the exact story that has happened with several people I've known.
FYI: This stigma does not exist in all countries - it is exceptionally present in the US. The stigma is non-existant... pretty much reversed in Japan. Give a listen to some of the awesome shit bass does from bands over there. They even balance the volumes with bass louder than guitars, and often keep bass rather central to the main composition of a song.
Couple examples to look up (ignore your possible distaste for the singing styles):
-Gackt - Mizerable, Vanilla,
-Sid (not to be confused with sid viscious of the sex pistols) - Otegami, Ajisai
-Dir en Gray - Kudou, Itoshisa wa Fuhai ni Tsuki (愛しさは腐敗につき)
-Tokyo Jihen - Himitsu for DJ (this one you will have to google, not on youtube, but the bass is freaking amazing), Sounan
Lol
Triggered.
Lighten up, Francis.
chill out I play bass and this is funny
Doppleg@nger Bad day?
