OK, here’s what happened:

You Would NEVER Believe what happened to me today.
I was sitting in the park, practicing my bass guitar.
It was Sunset, and I was alone.
Suddenly a car pulled up, and FOUR youts got out, brandishing BASEBALL BATS!
They were walking in my direction.
I calmly unplugged the bass from the amp, and stood up, with legs astride, wielding the huge, long-necked instrument over my head like a battle axe, and stood perfectly still, staring them in the face.
Like a flock of birds, they all turned at once and headed in the other direction down into the glades, probably to torment some poor alligator.
Then I put my instruments in my car and proceeded to my next lesson.
Never aim a bass guitar unless you intend to USE it.
Praise The LORD for His Guidance and Courage,

LTOS

HOLY Cow.

You did good..

The only thing that thugs fear is getting hurt.

They expected you to roll over and give them the guitar.

A Fender Bass is a substantial piece of wood but may I suggest...

Oh my gosh, ML...He was right there with you, guiding....and helping with the staredown. Hopefully they got the message. Maybe the punks will think next time.
