Michael, bass players would catch my eye too... but that picture kinda freaked me out... But to be honest a guy who can play the piano and sing is really hot... i.e. Ben Jelen, Chris Martin (from Coldplay), Andrew McMahon (from Something Corporate)  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 02-10-2004 08:32 AM                  I vote that this is the MOST stupid and lame thread on FT.... >>> Phil  |  IP: Logged Greg Mueller Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1687 From: Port Gamble, WA Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-10-2004 09:06 AM                        Yah, but I'd boink Pat Benatar.

Someone attracted to guys will probably be attracted to male musicians and and people attracted to girls will probably be attracted to female musicians. Replace musician with actor and the same would probably hold.  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?"

That`s OK, the picture actually shows me demonstrating my "Ivan the Terrible" look (which I learned from Eisenstein`s movie), but it was the only one of me with my bass I had readily available on my computer.  |  IP: Logged Jason Burroughs Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 654 From: Allen, TX Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-10-2004 01:55 PM                     I think that the attraction is somewhat more than just based on talent. Certainly the popularity of that person (musician, actor etc) plays into it. Also it doesn't supprise me that women, especially young ones, fawn over those that can play various instruments (guitar, drums etc) because of the bad boy image they typically have. IMHO, the bad boy image is probably the basis for the large majority of the attraction for women. They will throw themselves at those in hopes to gain their attention, and in their mind affection. On the other hand, a female musician usually gains respect, not attraction and lust (based on music ability alone). A male musician that has a reputation for treating women like crap, and look like crap, will still have to fight the groupies off with a stick. Gene Simmons who claims to have beded over a thousand women still has thousands more who would gladly join the long and undistinguished list.  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan."

This is EXACTLY WHY a great deal of popular music SUCKS today. Great musical talent and great looks are rarely ever carried in the same person. We just have a lot of pretty people singing the same old, tired shit. Most of it all sounds the same, and doesn't sound very good in the first place. In some respects, album oriented rock still allows ugly-yet-talented people to gain success. This is also the ONLY GENRE in popular music where "classic" tunes 20 or 30 years old or older are being played. Still, someone like Bob Dylan would have a much harder time if he was a young musician starting a career today. Good looks were not important before the age of music video. For the country and "pop" (or rather gun-toting rap scumbag criminal wannabe music), you pretty much have to look like a porn star to get anywhere. This is especially true for country music these days. Guys like Willie Nelson or Johnny Cash would have absolutely no chance for success if they were young guys trying to break into the industry. The country music genre, as it currently exists, is by far the most shallow and derivative form of popular music being sold today.  |  IP: Logged Mike Heenan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1896 From: Scottsdale, AZ, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 02-10-2004 08:12 PM                     Last time I heard Gene Simmons was closing in on Ron Jeremy's record!  |  IP: Logged Martin Brooks Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 900 From: Forest Hills, NY, USA Registered: May 2002 posted 02-10-2004 11:30 PM                        Jen,..creative people are a turn-on, plain and simple. Doesn't matter to me if they're a musician, an artist, a designer, etc. Creative people have more fulfilled lives and that makes them more interesting people and more fun to be with. But I do have a "thing" for female bass players. I don't know why. Not thrilled with female drummers though.  |  IP: Logged Jennifer Pan THE JEN!

Being creative has a bad rap sometimes... It doesn't fill the void when ever it comes to feelings. I could write songs about it. Expressing it helps times but deep down inside its still a void. But hey... I'll just have to deal with it like everyone else...  |  IP: Logged Paul Cassidy Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 549 From: Auckland, New Zealand Registered: Aug 2001 posted 02-11-2004 03:23 AM                        Yes Female Bass Players are SUPER sexy  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?"
