    But I can't sing. I'm a reasonably good guitar player, though.

    People always want to pick on Ringo. He was way better than McCartney imo.

    Pretty much any 80's hairband bass player. Especially the guy from Poison. He pretty much admitted on their Behind The Music that he could barely even play the bass.

    Tool fans may flame me, but from a casual fan's perspective, that guitar player plays the same solo in every song and every song is in the same key. And it's the drop D tuning which is the easiest key to play for guitar.

    Keyboard player for Bon Jovi. Besides Little Runaway, was there ever any keyboard on any of their hits? All he does is play 8th notes on the root chords.

    Michael Anthony from Van Halen? Yes, his backing vocals were part of their signature sound, but Eddie played bass on all their albums and it was so low in the mix you could barely hear it anyway.


    And I'll let the hardcore Beatles fans address Moe's post about Ringo.... Surprised we haven't heard from them yet. CBrownFanclub?


    Come on, man. One of the most underrated drummers out there. Where would U2 be without all of his signature grooves? (Sunday Bloody Sunday? Hello??)

    Geddy Lee from Rush

    Your bass playing sucks and, if you want to sing in the same register as a chick, then just hire a chick that can sing and play bass.

    That's a joke obviously.

    Nikki Sixx would be an exception here. He was/is Motley Crue.

    Yes but Motley Crue is unique - all the band members are useless.

    If his backing vocals were a signature of the band, he's not useless. As a bass player, maybe (I think the claim that he didn't play his bass parts on record is just another lame and drunken attempt by Eddie to claim all the credit for the band)

    Most expendable member...

    They gave her an honest chance, she's a good person and maybe more talented than given credit for but "Sporty Spice" didn't really add much. Posh Spice filled the anglo brunette role just fine, they shoulda went Middle Eastern, Hispanic or Meditarranean there.
