I play electric bass, and for a short period of time, I played clarinet.

It never failed, it was all just unserious talk. Except for the last time, it got purged.

When I get Rock Band, I'll use the mic to record guitar tracks. But that means I won't be able to record anything until (hopefully) Christmas.

I know nothing of rock band, but if it's anything like guitar hero it is not a legitimate replacement for guitar.

I meant since, (for the 360 version) the mic for the singing part is pretty much just a USB mic, I can use it to record my f'real guitar onto my compy.

I play da bass. Da electric bass. I'm quite good at it now, actually.

And you know what I just love? Bass through a guitar/bass overdrive pedal and Cry Baby wah pedals!

Yes it is. If it's mic'd/has a pickup installed. I tried it on my friend's upright in jazz band (we have a little clip-on pickup dealie for the basses). It was beyond awesome.

Well, I guess if you have an upright/electric it is possible. But I'm not sure because I don't have one.

You're a bassist, you have no usage in a band.

Hey! That guy that sold me my bass said that bassists were the nerve center of every band!

But that guy was a bassist himself.

Voice. Trumpet. French horn. Piano.

Actually, I just had an honor band recital today in which I played the French horn, in addition to a piano recital in which I played the piano. I have performed piano for live audiences in Vienna and have been hired to play at a wedding.

They arent. The only GOOD bassist to ever exist was Snazz Snickle Nick bottom, and he got his head chopped off in 'Nam.

Oh, and Les Claypool, But you'll never be good enough.

But bassists provide good beat and if a song doesn't have a good beat then it sucks.

Or if it has amazing guitar with no beat, that makes up for it.

You proved to me that you'll make a good guitar tech, but you don't know much about music and the way lineups work.

And, here's the video everyone wanted me to make to prove that I had gotten slightly better:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPW9DLS4Wak

And yes, I know that when I'm playing the slap it clicks. That's what I get for setting a camera on top of an amp and recording music with it.
