tauzero Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 [quote name='GrammeFriday' timestamp='1432547355' post='2782440'] Amazing how the context of a desert island can turn a simple 'what's your favourite bass' thread into a fevered erotic reverie - Drew Barrymore's bongos, "[i]Lez[/i] Zeppelin" ...

tauzero Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 [quote name='Norris' timestamp='1432573796' post='2782851'] So which bass is best for fighting off polar bears? [/quote] A Precision. Then they go on That Ebay as "reliced". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leftybassman392 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 When I first looked at this thread all those years ago, I thought it might be a sort of bass player's 'Desert Island Discs' - which I thought was a really good idea... In fact I think I'll start a new thread now. Watch this space. Well, not *this* space if you know what I mean... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrammeFriday Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 [quote name='tauzero' timestamp='1432594212' post='2783170'] You [i]have[/i] heard of Lez Zeppelin, haven't you? [/quote] No, not until just now - I did indeed assume it was a Freudian typo, so thanks for the correction. How embarrassing! Yet another groundbreaking, zeitgeist-shaping band completely passes me by! Always the last to catch on, me ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcnach Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 [quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1432583492' post='2783049'] No, upon reflection, the initial remit was a single bass to take to a desert island. It's not stipulated that the island must [i]remain [/i]desert after your arrival. It's true that, for a second person, it couldn't count, but for the first, I'll put the rule firmly back in place. Only one bass, and one has to stay on the (formerly...) desert island for ever. There, that's settled. Carry on. [/quote] Dang! You're right... Precision, Jazz, sorry babies, you are staying at home this time (can you hear them cry? you're a heartless beast) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcnach Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 [quote name='Beer of the Bass' timestamp='1432584421' post='2783065'] Doesn't that change the premise of the thread a little? Like, which bass would you banish to an island where no-one ever sets foot? I can think of one or two... [/quote] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcnach Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 (edited) I want an island for dessert now. Made of chocolate, of course. Edited May 26, 2015 by mcnach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
