Pfft, who on a bass player forum would be into a band fronted by Geddy Lee

There is a really cool band that broke up a couple years ago from the U.K. called Sikth that was really sweet. Protest The Hero is my favorite band though <3<3 |

Can't stand em. Singer bugs the hell outta me, and I just don't think any of the songs are written very well.

|  | Starring In: Return of Kung-Fu World Champion | | Join Date: Oct 2003 Location: Oxford, Ohio (Near Cincy) | | So far, the only jazz fusion that has been mentioned was Hiromi (who frickin' rocks out, by the way), everything else is prog.
There is some jazz fusion out there right now that is great. Hiromi, Hadrien Feraud, always Herbie Hancock, Tony Grey, Lee Ritenour.
My band has started to do some home-brew jazz fusion-type music. Listen to Second of Six on our myspace page. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
