Nail Soup Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 (Inspired by @stewblackĀ topic about Bass heaven) There's an old joke, based on Ā crude outdated stereotypes unfortunately.....something like: In Heaven the cooks are French, the policemen are English, the mechanics are German, the lovers are Italian and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.Ā However the format's OK......... so I had a bash at a bass player version: Ā - In Heaven the bass players have the image of Sid Vicious, the playing ability of Carol Kaye and the ego of John Deacon. Ā - 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 farĀ more rock and roll excess than his image suggests. Quote
