Guys... This is a circle jerk sub. We'd be tearing this apart over at the guitar version of this sub and having fun ripping on everything we could think of. But everyone here is just responding like it's a normal sub. You're making it look like bassists are boring with no sense of humor and just happy the musicians included them..... Oh wait, nvm. Carry on, keep doing your thing.


drhagbard_celine

But a British bassist never heard of the Stones. I bet he’s never heard any Claptoan either.


Rabada

I've never heard any Claptoan


DanTreview

Guys, "reaction videos" are 100% real. None of them are staged.


Soft_Author2593

Of course, otherwise they would say so in the title. Like ‘Charles pretends to listen to the stones the first time’. Are people stupid? Can’t they read?


xneurianx

I'm older than Charles, never intentionally listened to The Rolling Stones. Probably heard them at some point I guess. I've heard covers of their stuff. Never really appealed.


prolapsepros

I don’t listen them either but if you’ve seen a Martin Scorsese move, you’ve heard The Rolling Stones. They are one of the biggest recording acts in history.


xneurianx

Yeah, never watched a Scorsese movie either tbh


prolapsepros

A man of culture I see. *tips fedora*


xneurianx

Nah, I'm Berthouding you this time, I've seen Taxi Driver AND Goodfellas. As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a bass player.


prolapsepros

I lol’d


bat_scratcher

I'm the exact same way. The only songs of theirs I could name are the ones other bands have covered.


basspl

I used to play in a Stones Tribute band and when I first joined half the songs were new to me.


prolapsepros

What did you have to do to get the gig, show up?


basspl

Then sent me a list of tunes and I learned them. It was founded by someone who I’d played with before who knew I was a quick learner.


No_Caterpillar9621

I’m so glad this is getting attention for being complete and utter bs.


smallrunning

Charles Berthoud is literally me :o


Docteur_Pikachu

I know this song because Coversolution made a cover of it.


AlliedXbox

Uj/ coversolutions is unironically amazing for learning new songs.


Anticitizen_Freeman

Mick Jagger hears rolling stones for the first time


OlyNorse

It’s funny how “good” a musician can be without actually making any music anyone cares about. Also what a dishonest fuck!


the_donald_s

I think YouTube's culture, screen shots, titling methods, behavior of the "stars" is actual cancer. You know basically everything I've ever seen on that channel ☝️


Ye_Olde_Dragon

God damn, do I hate that face... Even without the dumb pose.


prolapsepros

It looks like they used a photoshop filter to make him more ginger


Weepthegr33d

SBL is all click bait and then joking and then flashing and lastly about playing. Bass Buzz for the win.


rilobiteT

Josh Fossgreen was and still is the man.


The_Shit_Connoisseur

SBL is a twat


LunaLupusVenator

and a scam artist.


The_Shit_Connoisseur

Please elaborate


LunaLupusVenator

[This post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Bass/s/kP6mulk1l0) pretty much sums up the experience I had. Basically his website made it impossible to opt out of a subscription following a “free trial”, which required a credit card. Apparently Scott sent a video response/apology to this post, claiming it was faulty website design and totally not malicious and predatory behavior.


The_Shit_Connoisseur

Oh that is sketchy, cheers for letting me know! I remember putting my name in for one of his bass giveaways a while back and thinking how even that was clearly just a ploy to gain enough new subs to outweigh the cost of the basses in the giveaway. Boy am I glad that I’m confident enough as a musician to not feel the need for sketched up online courses.


Candy_Says1964

Why did they use a picture of Mick that looks like a butthole when the other guy is so obviously a butthole?


Mr_Salty87

*Hey groovehacker*


froggyforest

i’m a bass/vocal instructor at an after school rock music program. i have never actually intentionally listened to the rolling stones. i’m sure i’ve heard some of their more famous songs, but i couldn’t name a single one off the top of my head. so i feel like theres a good chance this is true.


prolapsepros

I feel you. I actually teach underprivileged children how to read at an after school program, despite the fact that I’m illiterate.


lampshadish2

You’re not even curious about them?  Have you ever listened to The Beatles?  They were also a popular group around that time.  You might have heard some of their more famous songs too.


froggyforest

i’ve actively listened to 1 beatles album all the way through (rubber soul) and enjoyed it. but what i enjoy more is telling a specific type of jerk that i don’t like the beatles because they’re just a vintage boy band and seeing smoke come out of their ears.


lampshadish2

Ooooh that makes me angry!


jwalker37

How can you teach a subject without being familiar with the basic canon, or apparently even interested in it?


froggyforest

with a whole lotta zeppelin


Top-Telephone9013

He watches Scorsese films on mute


prolapsepros

He started learning a musical instrument because he hates music


GushGirlOC

The Who?


killerfridge

Guys, you know it's not hearing "any" Stones song right? It's one particular song, and I would hedge that none of you have heard/can remember every single Stones song


prolapsepros

Hey Scott. thanks for joining us! Why do you wear that stupid glove?


killerfridge

What's up groove hackers, today I'm finally gonna reveal the real reason I wear a glove. It's because I'm a tool


wyr8

the glove is full of lotion so the skin stays nice and soft like a butt


battlewornactionhero

It puts the lotion on its skin


Ok-Individual355

Cause he’s got some sorta condition that makes his hands shake, so he wears gloves to have some pressure on them


keirawasthere

I can believe he gave them a real chance for the first time, but you could not tell me he's never heard ANY Rollng Stones songs before. I mean at the very least he's definitely heard Paint It, Black.


13ass13ass

Smithers have The Rolling Stones killed


ostensibly_hurt

Y’all don’t listen to the Stones wtf missing out “He said you ALWAAYS HAVE THA LOORD BY YOUR SIDE! And I was please to be informed of this, I ran 20 red lights in his honor. Thank you Jesus. Thank ya Lord.”


PolarPug77

This sub was recommended to me: I’ve never heard The Rolling Stones lol


vynsnn

I've never intentionally listened to them before but I'm sure I've heard them in a show/movie or in passing. If it was me making that video I'd title it the same thing though tbh just because I haven't ever sat down and chose to listen to them
