Bass Clarinet Player

Usually, a bass clarinet player is a misunderstood, but very useful instrument in a band. Higher than a bari sax, but lower than a tenor sax, the bass clarinet player is the median in a low reed section. Not too high, not too low.

Band Director 1:We need more bari.
Bd 2:We need more tenor.
Bd 3:Nah, both would be over-kill. We need something in between.
Bd 1:We could add some bass clarinets player...
All:YES!

Our tubas suck, so what do we do? Add more bass clarinets.

bass guitar

(BASE - gitt - TARR) A musical instrument that's a hybrid of the upright bass (also known as the double bass or bass violin) and the electric guitar, conveniently combining the low tonal range of the upright bass with the portability and playability of the guitar. Popularized by models created by Leo Fender in the 1950s, although he wasn't the first to manufacture a bass & guitar combination.

Like the original upright bass, bass guitars most commonly have 4 thick strings tuned EADG. But extended-range models with five (BEADG) or six strings (BEADGC) are available too, as are 8 and 12 string models (based off the idea of 12 string guitars).

Paul McCartney and Sting both play the bass guitar.

2.The double bass section in that orchestra kicked major ass!

bandslam

A great movie about a misfit who starts managing a high school band that is well-received by top critics and reviewers, but had failed in the box office due to false advertisements from Summit Entertainment.

Bug: Damn, Bandslam got critics choice!!
Omar: You sure, it looked like just another HSM movie?
Bug: Well that's because of the shit Summit Entertainment called advertisement.
