That's a funny thing for the reason that the bass players are usually known as the last musicians to "lead" a band!!!

Although there are very few exceptions like Geddy Lee (Rush) and Lemmy Kilmister (Motorhead), the bass player's importance/job to the band is usually to "fill in the hole" with the other musicians, ya know?
