What Inspired You To Play Bass?
Two names: Paul McCartney and Jack Bruce.
Haha, 3 names.
Paul McCartney, Geezer Butler and Cliff Burton.
And the sound of the bass itself.
My friend in college introduced me to Primus then let me try out his bass, I was powerless to resist the enticing sound of the E string. What else could I do but buy my own bass? I'm only human!
Steve Harris with his foot up on the monitor doing his galloping triples. Maiden rocks.
that and the fact I'm to old to shoot hoop anymore.
David J from Bauhaus. Jaco Pastorious, Stanley Clarke, Paul McCartney hell I just love the bass. It's an instrument you can hear and feel!!!!
it was a mixture of having the job to be the bassist when my family played rockband 1 and i was instantly taken in by the soundplus all the music i listen to has a heavy bass in it
One bassist that inspired me was, Duff McKagan of Guns N' Roses. I believe he is very under-rated. Of course I HAVE to put in Steve Harris, and Cliff too.
Some guys I had jammed with previously (on keys) needed a bass player. So I bought one and started learning their catalog. Turns out I enjoy it much more than keys or guitar.
