thats pretty cool! i didn't know that. Julians a pretty mean slap bassist actually. Apparently the fans at the razorlight gig didnt really appreciate his warm up lol, no idea why. I saw the boosh at the manchester apollo a few months back.

Lucky!!! You got to see Noel and Julain in the flesh


and....this sounds stupid..but I didn't know Julian played bass

lol yeah julian records all the music for the series and so must have played the slap bass solo in the episode with the hiker..ok ill stop now before this turns into the mighty boosh thread.

Mikey Way's bass lines are oridnary and simple. Anyone could do them. And Pete Wentz can't play bass. At all.

anyway...
Jon Gallant (Billy Talent) Is an excellent bassist. But I think the best is Chris Wolstenholme

Victor Wooten
Flea (even tho i hate rhcp)


i want to say mike dirnt, but hes just the best punk bassist lol =)


definately not pete wentz or mikey way
they are just about as simplistic as it gets
same with mark hoppus, in case anyone said him

but i should probably tack the Who's bass on there too, definately one of the best bassists out there

I think the question was "who's the best bass player?" not "which bass players do you like the most because you think they're attractive?", haha.

Anyway, Les Claypool is amazingly bitchin'. Flea & Matt Freeman are good, as well.
