When did Nicky play Bass the Best!

A thread about Wires Bass Playing abilities?

Discuss!

I think around 2005-2009!

i think Nicky has improved with time so his current bass-playing is probably his best

Are you going to do a 'What was Richey's finest guitar playing era?' poll as well?

Richey's best guitar era was definitely 1969-1995.

Lifeblood really was when Wires bass playing became more noticable on a technical and smoother level.

He hasn't been the ten thumbed toneless noise polluter of a bass player in years. From TIMTTMY onwards Nicky has been a great bass player. So fuck off.
