New Wentz bass coming.

I'd like to see footage of him actually playing and not being an "entertainer". I'm curious to see if he actually has any talent or if the speculation is true that he's just a poster boy. Not a fan, but he's definitely killing it financially im sure. I wish i owned a bar financed through my bass...

More than once he's said himself that he's not talented, including the phraze,
"I need to learn the notes on my bass"

You know what's funny...every time a thread starts with his name in the title, he gets a 10+ page thread that goes on for weeks about who hates or loves the guy...regardless of if he can play or not, he's doing something right...

IMO, the guy is a marketing genius.
 
Haters are going to hate.

I feel the same way about Creed and SRV clones as most of the TB world feels about F.O.B. HOWEVER, I will be first to admit that as much as I despise the aforementioned Creed (and their ilk), they are obviously doing something right. I'd take the gig in a heartbeat if they needed a bassist.
 
I didint mean to offend anybody, if i did im sorry but i just do not like the guy, and my hate against him grew even more when he said that.. not that i hate gay people i can and probablya lready have gay friends but i jus tdont like this particular dude
