Can Billy play bass?
:confused:
|
:rofl:
|
He sounded alright on Gish and Siamese Dream.
|
Like most bass players who mastered guitar first, he is not the most inventive bass player, but he gets the job done functionally and plays parts that serve the song. Even Gish, the most bass heavy album, still has bass settles behind the guitars the majority of the time. When Billy wrote daily posts on the Nexus about writing and recording Monuments to an Elegy, I remember him making some jokes about how unoriginal most of his bass lines were.
Although Nicole played during a horrible era of the band, I always admired her blend of more "functional" playing (like Billy) while also knowing when to make her bass stand out, without sounding over the top like Melissa's bass did. |

Takeshi plays bass and guitar. On the same guitar.
|
SUBMITTED FOR CONSIDERATION to James

No, Corgan cannot play bass. He can never remember the names of the strings, and he has to put number stickers on the frets so that he knows where he is.
He is also yet to build up the necessary calluses. |
Man.
I'm buying Rocksmith as soon as I can afford it. |

i suppose he can play well enough. i mean no one really listens to SP for the bass playing. i'm 100% sure he's not going to be the one playing on tour, though.
|
if it's not a hired touring bassist then it will be jeff. i'm not sure why people often consider playing bass a demotion. bass can kick some serious ass.
