THE COOLEST looking bassist?

[Chebass88]

Bringing this thread back to life because of this man

+1. It doesn't get much cooler than a guy who is able to keep a pipe lit while laying down some serious bass lines. Tuxedo + bass + pipe + Duck Dunn. yeah.

imp

Hahahahah I didn't see the pipe....great pic!!

Steve 'Arris \m/><\m/ - is way too cool imho - (inspired me to take up the bass, too).
Rob Trujillo
Jason Newstead - (yes really) - had some excellent photos of him rocking out, somewhere...

Personally I don't hold with all the poncy "Oh Look At Me I'm A Musician" look... (just imho).

 

[Bassmunkee]

OH yeah and
Lemmie, Lemmie, Lemmie, and don't forget Lemmie
Now THAT'S Rock 'n' Roll.

 

[Bassmunkee]

yeah...i was watching him all night at hong kong just recently...and he has really got his game down to a tee...

almost like a cartoon character out of gorillaz ...with a dash of sid visious bravado...but he acctually plays amazingly well ...

up there with hooky

hope new order get their **** together.

+1 to all of the above.
I love their sound - both of them.
P.S.
Am I the only bassist on earth who does NOT like Bootsy Collins...?

uhhhhhhh not one person said sid vicious???

That would be because Sid Vicious was not, by any stretch of the imagination, a bassist - even by the relatively low musical standards of the pistols he was wasn't a bassist.
They used to unplug him in gigs - because he was ruining their sound. That's how not a bassist he was.

Thanks for posting why I can't stand to watch Metallica videos.

This guy is a freaking ape. Who ruins everything.

 

[XtreO]

Of course it's either Marcus Miller or Robert Trujillo!

It sucks that it is that way, but I'm going to have to agree.
