They were both dark, curly-haired bassists named Mike, I expect even the other band members forget from time to time.

I can't say I really ever notice Jeff. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

live I feel like he's frequently the standout player. When I notice Stone and Matt its usually because they're bad. Eddie nowadays as well. Mike is always solid but to me, Jeff stands out the most live in this era of Matt Cameron, and vocally shot Ed.

Ben Shepherd is the correct choice.

I hadn't voted yet, it's now two of us. Krist's bass lines are a huge part of the band's sound, sonically and melodically.

I like Krist but i dont really care about Nirvana musically. Its more the impact than the music for me.
