V8's musical glossary

V8

Last batch of "humour" - until I get irritated again :?

Chops. Creatures that frequent music stores to unleash Sweet Child O Mine, for the 1876th time. And follow it up with "Slow dancing in a burning room" (ala John Mayer), usually with the vol & reverb cranked to 11...this somehow demonstrates their sensitive side.
Dub-step : The sound of stepping in dog poop.
Djent : The sound of you make while cleaning up Dub-step. Bonus points for using a pointy guitar.
Metrosexual : Anyone who can find a plectrum when actually looking for it.
Yam-AH-HA : The sound you make after you bought a Cort new and find out the same money would have gotten you a actual guitar.
Cock : The sound you make when you realise you could have bought the identical guitar 2nd hand, for 1/2 the price you paid for your nice shiny new one.
<censored> : The sound you make when the value of the Rand dives, the day before you plan to *finally* get around to placing a order for unobtanium from the US.
The Dark Side : Legendary place where multi-fx pedals are useful. Also the only known manufacturer of the "talent booster" pedal, which comes disguised in a Line6 chassis and permanently dies after you make the mistake of reading the manual.
unobtanium : Another Dark Side product.
Boutique : Synonym for "morgage" or "divorce".
Groupie : The bass player.
Muppet: The drummer.
W@nker : Lead guitarist.
The Royal We (who can do no wrong) : Vocals.
(S)he that can find Middle C : Keys
LP : Lead Plank Kung-fu. A style requiring long hair and boots. Lethal in crowded stadiums. Practitioners known to frequent liquor stores and physiotherapists waiting rooms.

Hilarious. Keep em coming. Although I am a bass guitarist AND own a Cort, it's not insulting so much as sadly true.

Thanks Lu22 - Was a cathartic process more than humourous I suspect ?

I too am a happy Cort owner (it was cheap - that's my excuse) and occasional bass hacker. So mostly based on experience and lessons learnt - or not - contemplating another Cort purchase :-[

Enjoyed it. ?
