Me!
Here I am murdering Rushs "The Trees" and the singer looking at me trying to figure out what the hell that noise is.

Actually, that's probably not The Trees, since I'm looking at the book it must be something I didn't practice enough of, Subdivisions maybe.

I never look cool playing, I always look goofy, but moreso when I'm playing. It's not even bassface, I just don't look cool at all with an instrument.

I look really goofy when I play, but that's ok. My goal isn't specifically to LOOK cool. It's just a crying shame I don't sound very cool either

I've never seen a picture of a bassist ever looking even remotely cool, myself included.

Well, maybe Kip Winger.

Yea, we don't care what we look like when we are so into it.







Until someone snaps a pic and shows it to us later.

Let that strap out a little more. Lower bass= cool.

for the OP... gotta disagree with one. Sean Yseult does not look goofy at all! The cofin shaped bass sure, but not her.

Jason Newsted always looks cool playing bass, but the occasional Bassface is bound to happen!

I'm torn when I watch the Welcome Home video. He looks goofy as hell, but that Spector is sweet!
