Very true. I was a bassist and never got laid.

I feel your pain. I primarily payed bass from age 17 on. But at least we had a smug sense of superiority, because "it was about the music".

It was always about "the music" for me too. The "chicks" were just a side bonus I hadn't even realized would happen. I started playing guitar when I was 11. I'm not complaining, it was a nice "side bonus", but it really was tangential to the innate love I had/have for music.

MUSIC RULES. ....seriously.

One more underrated band, some good friends of mine...from the Detroit area:

The Great Lakes Myth Society:
