Jason Newsted Tribute

A Tribute to Jason Newsted.
Jason Newsted was the person who got me into metallica and bass. Many people find it okay to compare him and cliff. Whatever happend, happend. I wish people could stop hating the guy. He was a great bass player. In my head he is equal to cliff. I owe a lot to cliff. If it wasnt for cliff I would never know Jason. If Cliff were still alive it still would have been good.
People like to criticize jason for playing with a pick. What's wrong with playing with a pick? The way Jason played with a pick was badass. Same thing for Cliff, the way way he played with his fingers was badass. I think that Jason solo's were better. Lots of people would argue with that.
For him quitting the band I think he did the right thing. I feel like metallica never really cared for him and still dont.
Jason would always go out there to jam. I think that if Cliff were still alive but somehow could not play with the band he probably would have been mad for what they did to jason. I can agree with having to get accepted but it never ended.
Robert Trujillo will never be half as good as Cliff or Jason. But Since I'm a fan of metallica I look foward to the album with rob. I still think they can make good music. They are getting old but they are still alive.
Any hateful coments to jason will be erased. Respect the man for the good he did.

Jason is my favorite pick using bassist, his style was amazing just wish there was more of him in the albums but i can see why he wasn't, losing a band mate the way they did has that effect. Cliff is my all time favorite and i like his solos better because of his effects and just how amazing he was. Rob is also a great player and anyone that says he's not is fucking stupid. Hope for more new music from metallica with more bass. RIP Cliff and respect to Jason and Rob.

I have listen to them almost my intier life and this by fare proves that Jason is just as good as cliff he probably practiced a lot of cliffs stuff before he got the gig and not only did he have to fit in he had to replace cliff and still be true to himself I think cliff would be proud
