I have defended Hugh forever. I don't care what he looks like - I don't care how he acts on stage. He's a damn fine bass player and I'd rather have him than Alec with his attitude. It is supposed to be about the music - right? And as an aside - did any of you listen to the radio intervew that Alec did recently? There was a link posted here briefly a week or two ago. He was bashing the band politically? I don't think that there is a lot in common anymore. |
And aside from that, Hugh's just a hell of a nice guy. He's always happy to have a chat, take a picture whatever every time I've met him. Some of my mates even joined him for breakfast in London one time, so I don't really get the Hugh bashing at all...
The man can play bass on the songs we wanna' hear without ****ing them up! Jeez, there's been enough criticism about Jon screwing up things - so what would you all be saying if they had a bass player who couldn't play? |
I admit I don't get the bashing of Hugh either. I was watching VH1 Classic the other night and they were talking with the "Who" all the clips from thier live performance the bass player stood around just like Hugh. He barely moved around at all, and he isn't the only guitar player that I have seen that doesn't move around alot. JMO!

If they were older clips, his name was John Entwistle and he's a ****ing legend! Unfortunately he died back in 2002 the rock'n'roll way. Off topic of course ;) |
And as far as I know John Paul Jones, probably one of the greatest bassists ever, didn't exactly leap about the stage.

Bass is underrated, and any band would be grateful for his skills. BJ don't need him to live it up on-stage. |

I guess both Hugh and Alec have pros and cons really. Hugh seems to be more professional and make less mistakes (from what people say). Alec seems to look and act the part more, move around more, and contribute those ridiculously high vocals (which may either be a good thing or bad depending on your view) |
