My covers band is the exact opposite: the drummer and I (bass) practice a shitload, the guitarist and the singer never put a fucking second of work in other than our once-a-week rehearsal. It makes it quite the pain in the ass when we're trying to pick up new songs.

stfu...srsly people that criticize my country based on its attitudes towards gun ownership make me sick with that shit. Oh my god the guy had a LOADED rifle in a private residence. Lets just cry about it. Its completely legal, i dont see what the person writing the article is fucking on about. Did he threaten anyone with it? Was it even in the same room? Oh and to the moron OP in THE LAND OF THE FREE convicted felons (which nick will surely be unless the state decides to drop charges) can barely own a steakknife. Why dont you atleast wikipedia the gunlaws.....

Oh my fuck.
I can't believe I'm reading one word of sympathy for this prick.
He got kicked out of QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE who are a bunch of fucking pricks, because he BEATS HIS WOMEN.
Now he beats another woman and people are like "Oh, my gosh, that guy needs to relax."
No, he doesnt need to relax, he needs to get to a fucking in patient rehab, or stay in jail because he beats women and has standoffs with police.
And, no he shouldn't have a fucking gun, because he has a history of violence. Nobody needs a fucking gun. We can get our food in the store. If you are not a woman beating macho man rock star piece of trash, you have the right to own a gun. I say, when you use violence against other people, you get your weapons taken away. fuck that guy, fuck him twice.

Who gives a fuck about this sack of shit? Or his shitty band that sucks?

Having a loaded rifle is fucking insane. You dont need to keep a loaded weapon in your house, I have plenty of guns and they stay secured in the gunsafe because that's how you fucking treat weapons.

Also fuck bassists.

I'd trade a handful of domestic disputes for Rated R, Songs for the Deaf, and Blues for the Red Sun.

Not on their own, and not with the band. That's why I think in my next band I'm going to play bass and get someone else to play guitar. That way all I need to worry about is the drummer.

That's why I'm considering picking up bass. Seriously, I have gone through 3 (kinda 4) bassists in my band, and every time it ends with them not showing up to practice for a month, then complaining about how we changed up songs. We didn't change up songs, you just never learned em. That's why I like playing two piece. That way me and my drummer can be all and then find time for ladies like

I don't hate bassists, I think its because I'm still young-ish, and so are they. Most bassists I run into say that they play bass because it only has 4 strings and is easier than a guitar. I find playing GOOD bass a hell of a lot harder than playing good guitar. When you have that kind of shitty attitude that "my instrument is super easy so I don't need to practice", you are gonna suck. Nuff said

I do love Queens though... Josh Homme is the tits. Rated R is money

Sig'd that shit!

I ditched band practice tonight to read this thread, and the god damn link is broken.

This.

But in all seriousness is anyone really surprised at this?

FUnny im a bass player that can play guitar and the guitarists for the last 3 bands I have been in CAN NOT play the bass. Guitarists have wimpy girly hands

Most guitarists just think they can play bass. It isn't just a 4 string guitar though. It takes practice and effort to learn just like anything else.

I play bass and guitar the same way: like a drum.
