No-one is more important than the front man... ever.

Whilst everyone else farts about setting up he's off to the bar to get the beers to bribe the sound engineer for a good set-up.

Without the ability to bribe first - everything else is doomed to failure.

Damn straight

Damn wrong. It's the triangle player.

I play both bass AND guitar in the band (not at the same time..) so I guess that makes me equally as important

The guitarist equally important as a drummer?! What a ludicrous idea! It's hardly like the guitarist is one of the front men of the band

Naturally!

Can't believe we're not looking for a triangle player to be honest!!

Guitarists can just fade into the background... bass playing is what it's all about. Come watch us play, it's all about me baby

Seems like a drummer is just a glorified triangle player anyway!

Lead bass! Now that'd be something to see.

Although thinking about it, it has been done before: Death From Above 1979!

Pink Floyd...? Roger Waters - front man and Bass.

 

[AH]

Lemmy - Motorhead?
Phil Lynott - Thin Lizzy?

The list could go on

Front men though, rather than 'lead', but shush

 

[You'veBeenTiote'd]

By lead bass i meant, bass as the prominent instrument. DfA1979 have bass, drums and synth (and vocals but that's not an instrument!)

 

[Amnesiac]

Damn straight

Something you're not

**** you

Colin Greenwood hit the nail on the head with Bassists.

I mean, I'm in a band, we're reasonably successful, I've got a very nice suit - I'm not even a bad person- so why can't I get a shag?

[biggeordiedave]

Bassists are the best, we've got the longest instruments

 

[Amnesiac]

Bassists are the best, we've got the longest instruments

Indeed, but it's all down to how you play with that long piece of wood

 

[Rafa's Championship Party]

Question for you all and not worthy of creating of a poll for?

Right here goes who thinks I should deliberately put a photo of a minger for my 1000th post on the Sexy Poll?

 

[Amnesiac]

Do it!

 

[Darth Gogledd]

Mate of mine got a 45 inch-necked bass - he can't play it properly cos his arms ain't long enough.

And yes Cbrad, do it.

 

[Ba's Strawberry Syrup]

Is there many from Durham on here? Did any of you hear about the clown on the loose?
