Spiderman used to play bass in a Doom Metal Band, called Dr. Doom vs. The World, obviously Dr. Doom was the lead singer. He had a green Hagström 8-Stringer Bass, which he playfully called Doc Octavius (only god knows why...), he played mainly Peavey amps, at least they should have 15" Black Widow Speakers in it.
 
Einstein wrote confusing charts, but he had his theory down pat.

The Walt Disney Band had some good material, but their bass player was downright goofy.

Didn't Hitchcock tour with the Byrds?

I read that Spiderman plays a Parker Fly.
