Ok, cmon guys. Everyone always talks about Flea these days, and about how freakin great he is. I've heard enough about Flea, there are plenty of Bassists playing in bands today who could out-play Flea in a heartbeat. So post up great modern bassists (any one who is playing in the band in which their great in now, or at least past 2000) for me!
I'll start:
Colin Moulding- XTC
