Aaaa, the joys of playing with (tone) deaf people ..

Not tone deaf, they hear that something is wrong alright, but they are unable to determine that you are the culprit!  :mrgreen: I am guilty of sometimes having done that on purpose for fun - play something a half-note higher or lower. The look on their faces is priceless, they immediately notice that something sounds awful but they can't attribute it to the bass.

Haha, that reminds me of a happening at a gig about 15 years ago. It was an extra gig really since we actually broke up the band 2 months earlier. The opening song had the lead guitarist doing the intro and the rest of us made a bombastic entry. Sounded like crap and lead guitarist meaningly pointing to our side of the stage (rhythm guitarist and me). I quickly turned on my tuner for half a second in spite of being 99.9% certain we were ok then and pointed back at him. The look on his face was great to see. He had tuned his guitar a half step up from us. I'd guess he might have regretted smoking that "strong" tobacco before the gig. I might add that the breakup of the band had a lot to do with that guy.
