Born 2B Mild Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Right now, I'm just a bit focused on all things bass, emanating from the great country that is Canada. Genuine question: Apart from Geddy Lee, what other bass players are there from Canada? Cheers, Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
