However... I have seen a picture of Pete Wentz, and based on his appearance I'd guess he's still in his 20's.
So I say he's been playing bass for less than 30 years.
What do I win? |

| | | | some pop bass player
doesn't play complicated lines, never plays solos and isn't into showing off
so he's either the most experienced player, knowing when to back down to improve the music
or he's really been playing for 2 weeks...

and where can you hear him?
nowhere because his bass is drowned out by the same 4 power chords in all their albums

takes talent to just go up on stage and do it though
all jokes aside, he is making serious bank, and is "famous"

| | | | never got the hatred towards successfull pop acts. He's probably not an accomplished musician, nor is making the music evolve... so what?
Fall out boys's music has brought pleasure to thousands of people and to me that is something way more meaningfull than beeing able to play technical stuff.
I don't read any "stars" newspaper (don't know what's the name for it in english), that may explain why he's not getting on my nerves. The only time I hear of him is when someone complains about him on talkbass ^^
PS: I actually don't like or listen to their music |

And of course, he's never heard of me. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
