Attractive Male Musicians

There are a lot of threads about attractive female musicians. I thought I would start one for people who like dudes (guys or girls :smug:)

If you aren't attracted to guys, please don't be obnoxious. Let us have our fun!

Post about your favorite male musicians and their music!

For me, the music is at least 60% of what makes a musician hot. A lot of these guys are really inspiring to me.

I personally think Billy Howerdel is a very expressive guitarist. His playing is impressive without having that "look at me shred so COOL" attitude that a lot of guitarists get into. And he has a very natural, sensual and sexy style. The guitar in this song does all kinds of things to me. It's just about the hottest thing ever:

I'm done. :cool: Post your faves!
 
John Whetton was a looker in his day.

First up, Tetsuya Ogawa.

Band leader and bassist for L'Arc~en~Ciel, formed the band 1991/2.

Big inspiration for me, has written the music and lyrics for many of the bands songs. Has also been a bassist for Creature Creature and has gone off on solo work under the name TETSU69 and just plain Tetsu and just the other week released solo work under the name Tetsuya after a three year break.

Can be seen primarily using a pick but sometimes fingers or slapping depending on the song.

From the early years

Also has a habit of playing his bass with a banana at the start of Stay Away
 
As long as you don't post the Jonas Brothers, I think you'll be fine :)

The strange thing is, I'm 20 but I'm usually attracted to musicians who are twice my age (but not anyone from TB! XP). Haha. Famous ones, at least. With the musicians I know, I like the college guys (mostly).

If it helps I'm 23 and currently obsessing over a 50 year old Yukihiro "Chachamaru" Fujimura aka The Legendary Guitarist of Kansai (the previous guy I put up, Tetsuya, is 40).

Lead guitarist of GacktJOB (Gackt's backing band), provided backing vocals and also produces Gackt's albums too. Excellent guitarist and has a solo album but used to be Gerard, Vienna, Ded Chaplin.

He plays a Caparison Horus guitar (the reason I have one too) and loves all things Egyptian...and likes pink.
