Seeing them in Manchester next year and it got me thinking... Is Geddy Lee the best bass player in the world... Or does this forum know better ;) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3hJ5-ngUow

No.

Dead bassist = Bernard Edwards

Alive bassist = Les Claypool

Rush are the best band in the world and Neil Peart is the greatest drummer ever to draw breath. I'm seeing them in Dublin. 3 1/2 set including Moving Pictures. Gig of the year.

Never liked Rush, and his voice is only less annoying than him out of Yes.

The finest prog band were King Crimson. FACT.

No, I hadn't seen that RJ. Thanks! Saw Rush in Manchester on their last tour. Saw them three times on the tour before. It'll be nice seeing them locally. Dublin is close to being sold out.

I havent heard that before, really cool, in fact I have not heard much Rush but I know they are the ducks littluns and folk are mad for 'em.

Best bassist? I don't know. I think he may be. I had a gap in my 'dream band' and it was who would fill the role of bass player, it might as well be Geddy Lee.

Danny's Dream Band;

James Hetfield (rhythm geetar and vocals if he was 10 years younger)
Dave Mustaine (rhythm geetar)
Chris Adler (drums, here)
Bass....maybe Geddy.

Too many option for lead guitarist. Cant be bothered even trying to think who for that role.

That's what you'd say if you are shit at bass.

Bassman is the first bassplayer I know who has never heard of Les and doesn't rate Geddy. He should no longer use the word 'bass' in his name. 'Man' shouldn't be used either. He should be renamed 'pussy'. Mods, sort it out!
