bassdrummer Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 First smoke, then silence Your very expensive rig Dies so gracefully. A haiku is a poem that has 3 lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables. Who composed the above bass haiku masterpiece? Hint: One of us Lowdowners had it in his signature a couple years ago... Can you compose your own bass haiku? I'll start: At the music store Sweet basses give me such GAS -- A conspiracy! Ampeg eight by ten Wall of sound, towering tone -- Oh, my aching back! A weight now removed From your shoulder, to the floor... Should have had strap locks. They called it The Hook ... The funky, genius finger Of James Jamerson. "All the world's indeed a stage, and we are merely players..." --Rush, "Limelight" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
