lol, i can take a joke, and it is pretty obvious that we bassists aren't useless. i just want guitarists to realize that. my guitarist is alwys giving me crap about it though. that's the purpose of the group

A song that'd be really nice to add would be one by tool, Probably either Schism, The Grudge, The Pot, or H.

you have no idea how sick that is. the amp won't really explode but, a bass really could destroy a guitar amp. thanks for mentioning that. lol

a band that could go on the 'useless withotu a bassist' list might be Violent Femmes. Their bassist is awesome, wrote a lot of the songs and co-wrote others.

I gues this is right place for me. I've always thought that bassists are equally cool as guitarists or even cooler.
