You two! Bass solos can be great!

I am a bass player sir.

My joke has more to do with the fact that bass players tend to feel unappreciated when the audience talks during their solo. Bass solos are always quieter so, there's some sort of bias there I'm sure.

Recently at a jazz club a bass player friend of mine who graduated from the same music school as me found ourselves talking through the bass solo from the act on stage. "Oh man, we're doing it now." Lol

bass is actually short for "basically not an instrument"
Thanks, I've never heard of them before. Excellent.

For whatever reason, we love this session by this incredible jazz band:
