You know you're a female bass player when...


you play w/your group at another church for the 1st time, all eyes are on you, and after that service guys come up asking for lessons and/or my playing stats and even for my phone number (j/k on the number deal *ROTFLOL*).

i know i'm late on this one but. i caught myself doing this and i thought about LGM. you know you're a bass player when you're watching a video of a band and you're looking at the bassist, and out of the clear blue you say " 5 string Musicman, Eden!" and someone says "what?" and then say, " i was just saying he's playing a 5 string Musicman with an eden 4x10 cab." then they look at you and say "where did that come from and what are u talking about?"      never mind

When your radio's bass is turned all the way up not so u can hear the bass drum as every else likes but to hear the different nuances the bass players uses.

when u wake up at like 1:30 or 2 am wonderin why you're hearing music, only to find its coming from your mp3 player hooked up to your amp and realize you have your bass on and you fell asleep learning a new song for the choir

also when im on the train listening to music in my headphones and my left hand holding onto the pole positions like im holding my bass and my fingers just start going

and i watch shows that have live musical guests (saturday night live, late night talk shows) just to see what the bass player is gonna do

You know you're a bass player when you're listening to a song and getting all irritated if it doesn't have a bass line and it could/should.

...when everyone else is impressed by a song with "programmed" bass lines and you don't even consider that to be real bass.

...when you hear a song with tight runs and it's so good it hurts and makes you shout/scream and everyone around you looks at you like "ok what was THAT about"

Hey!  I'm an organist and I take offense!  Organs and basses can work well together provided the organist and bassist agree on which parts to play!

 :D I wasn't angry...

I've run into disagreements with bassists before.  I just respect both viewpoints through experience.
