Sorry bro but I promise you that nobody cares that you are "first". It basically means that you have no life if the only thing you look forward to is being the first person to make a lame post.

Whoever gets the spot will be one lucky person. I wish i was a professional Canadian bassist so i could apply, Annihilator are one of the most underrated/best bands out there. Jeff Waters is god!

Anyway, Annihilator kickass!

Um no... I'm not braggin about being "first" or third or whatever number i am. I'm just sick of ready an article then reading that comments and the first poster always "first" like a douchebag. Trust me i'm definitely not jealous. And as far as having no life? I only visist this page when i'm not busy at work. I don't make post any other time than between the hours of 9-5. So nice try on trying to flame me, but it just wasn't a valient effort. BTW your screen name is extremely queefy!

I'm tempted, but I doubt they want a fretless bassist.

Odd. Every band I know, who is halfway good, has a truckload of friends who they can call upon to take over a slot in the band.
