    An explorer visits a long forgotten tribe, and is curious why the drummers of the tribe drum consantly 24 X7.

    He visits the chief of the tribe and asks him why the drumming is going on all the time.

    "Because if drums stop, something terrible will happen"

    "What horrible thing will happen?" asks the explorer.

    "Bass solo will begin!"

    Ok, ok, I'm a drummer. Honestly, bass solos good, drum solos bad.

    I don't understand how bassists managed ta get the brunt of well, all the abuse. Ya can't have a proper band without a bass methinks (note- I'm a drummer, so **** guitar, give me bass over it any day!)

    Guitarists dont know when to stop

    Thats why there are so many guitarists with great potential that ruin songs demading a two minute guitar solo. Bass solos may be less common but at least we can appreciate the timing of them. Awfully timed guitar solos have often ruined a song....
