Yup now U got the point that the bassist or guitarist usually get theory from the other instruments and that would explain Billy is kinda stuck, but check out Niacin 4 sum syncopated lines (and great keyboards ;-)) He's not the "best" but he's often regarded "the fastest" or "the most rocking" but that also means some weaknesses. BTW I got all my theory from singing, so I'm kinda stuck at chords 4 example, so I proudly declare myself "the most limited player in this discussion" lol.

I was originally supposed 2 B a bass-playing singer, just cuz the bass is missing in many bands. But one beautiful day i downloaded a vid of some guy called Wooten and things have slightly changed :-P(I've almost let go of "some stupid singing" thx 2 him :-D). Now I'm a singing bassman,But I got pretty narrow vocal scale and ppl applaud the most on my screaming anyways, so nothing 2 envy.

Yeah I agree with you, but there is a BIG, BIG difference between "really talented too" and "owns Sheehan", you know... And I especially wanted to highlight the fact Myung started 2 play with 3 fingers like 20 years after Sheehan. And most of all if I like Myung it would be generally because he's very very humble guy who has no need to show off or 2 B idolized by worshippers. DT happens 2 B hardly overrated and Myung deserves more objective appreciation

Yeah Green day Sux, but You shouldnť underestimate ppl who play with pick while they include JJ Burnell, Chris Squire and JP Jones. After all, On our music school old teachers say "true bassman should B able 2 play a lot with both fingers and pick"
