The 5 Most Unappreciated Musical Roles in a Band

Aichuk · 11-15-2013, 09:52 AM

Here's my list: (This is mainly for rock bands)

5. Producers (Yes, I consider them musicians. A good producer can make a huge difference.)

4. Drummers (Many people want to be one, but people often just take them for granted and ignore them)

3. Bassists (Many idiotic people think that they are useless despite the critical roles of the bassists)

2. Rhythm Guitarists (While Angus jerks around playing lead, Malcolm provides a base and a groove to his solos)

1. Keyboardists (Unless you're Keith Emerson, people often even fail to notice them)

What's your list?

The Stalkers: Why must some one stalk a favorite band dude for their money?

The Fans: At a concert, the smell of pot is indeed the best highlight of rock n roll!
