[@eliasaltman4439]

Billy Sheehan - One of the best bassist of all time Bumblefoot - One of the best guitarists of all time Can it get any more awesome?

[@mamaicymouse]

Yep you can... Put them in a band with the rest of the talent that makes up Sons of Apollo...

[@robmlisanti]

@@mamaicymouse amen just saw them in NJ

[@bobbyfikesmusicfun]

I played bass for Bumblefoot once and got to hang out with Billy Sheehan talking about bass for a long time and he is cool as hell. Bumblefoot is a great dude too.

[@robmlisanti]

@@bobbyfikesmusicfun Yeah Billy posted one of my shots i took from a show they did in NYC 2 years ago and responds back on FB all the time! \m/

[@Arcturian1111]

Kiss 1 had inspired me as well. I got that record along with an all in one stereo for Christmas in 1974 when i was 12. I still have and play that record today. Both musicians are badasses. Don't get better than that.

[@utkarshdubey4529]

2:19 what is that song

[@mikefrank6319]

Billy is such a badass. Aside from his trademark hammering technique, he doesn't really have a style because he adapts and adds flavor to any type of song or arrangement. He has been influenced by almost everyone who has jammed on the four string instrument. In turn, he has become "the" most admired bassist of the last few decades.I love McCartney ,Geddy Lee, Jack Bruce,Steve Harris, James Jamerson, and Chris Squire among others. These guys are all distinctly identifiable in their playing.Billy, on the other hand, has filled his toolbox with borrowed tools from the greats and blended them into a fantastic non-style.

[@mikekiss648]

Insanely skilled and Versatile

[@kenuputt_8885]

Loved that he mentioned Sweet. Such an underrated band but pretty well known with musicians

[@blueznote5360]

I always admired Paul Samuel Smith of the Yardbirds as a wonderful bassist of the 60's. Until today, no one talked about him because of his short career as a bassist. Thanks to Billy who brought up Paul Samuel Smith here.

Stepanek I grew up same town as Billy he was more than an legend. To watch him play live b a ck in the 70s amazing.

Billy is an Irish Catholic. He can say whatever he wants but he can't change who he is and he can identify as whatever he wants. It does not make it so however. In California one has to blend in or one does not get work. In California, most people despise Christians and absolutely hate Catholics.
