TOPIC: Tale of the Unknown Bassist

Just who was the bassist that was wearing sunglassess while playing backup on the bass two weeks ago in BG class? I am not sure if most of the students saw him, but he was there flaunting a bluesy look.

Rumors are he is a reincarnated Thelonius Monk (AKA - "Felonius" Monk) or perhaps named "Blind Willie Buzzart". Anyhow, we know that wearing sunglasses indoors at night is not really a Blue Grass thing, but I want to know if sunglasses will be replacing the "hat" fashion for class wear.

Both!

I think that shades will be required equipment for all persons playing the bass during class. Two reasons: one being a safety issue, you never know when a string might brake, or somebody wings a coconut cookie across the room at you, secondly, if you make a mistake no one knows who did it.

Coconut cookies????

Duly noted.

coconut balls
