Roger That

big direction change:

Chumbawmba

belinda carlisle briefly played with the Germs when she was 16

Not really the artist/art's fault something gets overrated tho.

Ross "The Boss" from Manowar used to be the guitarist for the Dictators.

Brandon Cruz was a child actor in Courtship of Eddie's Father, as a young adult was in Dr. Know

Dude, I saw Victor Wooten and he kicked ass. What you smoking?

A strain called "seeing through the gimmick."

Tbh I was wondering who MB's secret VW fan would be.

I've never actually heard a Victor Wooten album and I don't consider myself a fan. I just saw him with a few friends and the dude can play a f*cking bass man.

He doesn't have any soul and if you look past the tap gimmick, he's isn't even as impressive as any 19 year old you'll find in a standard jazz musician's Tuesday night backing band. Mother****er played NAMM a few times and everyone decided that he was the be-all-end-all of jazz bass when the dude does nothing that's impressive for more than five seconds. Dude might as well be Dragonforce.

Nice ones guys. Belinda one's surprising.

Jeff hanneman from slayer unsurprisingly had a short lived punk band, a track of which you can here on slayers hardcore cover/tribute album undisputed attitude.
