Which Star Wars Characters Would play bass?

I could see a little resemblance between Wedge and Stu Hamm....Starlight Sonata anyone?

But, Lando with some Bootsy Collins shades would really rock the Cantina. Only Yoda on the upright, if Chewy had one, he would play rockabilly.
 
HOKAY!

For a metal band:

Vocals: Vader
Lead Guitar: Han Solo (he's too flashy for anything else)
Rhythm Guitar: Luke Skywalker
Bass: Darth Vader/Darth Maul
Drums: Chewie (for the really mean double bass pedals)

Funk Band

Vocals: Leia (for that sultry feel, lol)
Guitar: Lando
Upright Bass: Chewie
Drums: Yoda

Symphonic Metal Band

Vocals: Leia (fast, high-pitched voice)
Guitars: Grevious (playing like 6 of them)
Bass: Vader or Darth Maul (again)
Keys: C3P0
Samples/Other Electronics: R2D2
Drums: Young Obi-Wan
 
Yoda would hold the groove hehehe :)

hokay, so, Star Wars Black Metal Band (don't worry, I don't listen to black metal)

I thought of chewie on bass first, he just sorta fits. Jaba's the band manager, emporer palpatine is the mascot. Maul can be singer, just cuz he's got that satan look to him, and he probly does that kinda voice anyway. Lead would be.. wait, black metal doesn't have leads. Guitar would be grievous. Drummer would be Jango Fett. Leah would be the groupie. Luke would be the guy they kill and rip apart on stage.
 
1. General Grevious would do the best tapping solo ever. EVER.

2. Chewie is defiantly a drummer. So much anger, yet a bassists best friend. I don't think he has the chops to be an awesome bassist, but I bet he can hold down an awesome beat to groove to. I'd put Jabba on bass. He looks like he got soul :p
