Jerry Garcia was missing part of a finger too. But I too am glad I have all my fingers!

Wow...

Kudos to him for working through the handicap. Looks like he's missing more than one finger, to be honest...

Reminds me of the guy who doesn't have his right hand and taps everything. That dude rocks the bass harder than I think I ever could...

EDIT: His name is Bill Clements if you've never seen him:

I met a guy from Detroit a while ago that lost the use of his right arm due to a nasty staph infection. He was getting back into playing bass again after giving it up due to his arm. Gotta give guys like that their propers. It sounds tough, but what else are you gonna do?

Very cool!

As a person who is also missing fingers, I applaud him.

And yes, Bill Clements is awesome!

This guy's probably not as technically accomplished as the others, but, he can do his job as a bass player AND vocalist.

Rock it Big Toe!
