A bigger concern to me is camera men/women: I hate when they don't
show the bass player! 95% singer / guitarist making faces, 4% drummer,
1% bassist (ala Song Remains the Same) = me change channel.

Although some shows, like Austin City Limits, or Sound Stage, tend to
do a much better job of showing all the musicians - not just the lead.

Much better, but not good enough! OK. So tonight I'm watching Los
Lonely Boys on Austin City limits. Now here's the deal BOTH the
guitarist and bassist are frontman singing the songs mostly in a duet
kind of style. The bassman is playing what looks like 6 string Alembic
and of course I want a closer look.

Its a six string Hohner FYI... :)
