Blues Brothers 2000 Bass

I was just watching the second Blues Brothers movie, which as you all know contains abouy a million of the worlds greatest musicians. In the last scene (battle of the bands) The bassist for the "Louisiana Gator Boys" Looked a ton like Willie Weeks. Can anyone confirm this? Because if it's true, they really did spare no expense on musicians.

I saw the movie yesterday (it was the karaoke version on tv) Dunno if he's really Willie Weeks though, isn't very likely.

It's been a while since I've seen it, but during the credits at the end of the movie (of you watch it) the players are pictured and named, and they pictured and said "Willie Weeks".

It's Weeks. Considering the amount of money they'd already spent on getting Clapton and everyone else on board, why not spend a little extra and get a bass player to match.
