I have a friend that plays bass Is it more difficult than a guitar?? :?
Cant say really, they both take skill, it depends on the music, A lot of todays mainstream music have really simple bass lines, but A lot of metal is pretty tough to play, Blues/Jazzy stuff is the hardest really, Check out Victor Wooten on youtube, Thats someone who has Mastered the bass.
The pain with bass players is that for some reason many bands (especialy hard rock, metal) seem have a grudge against bass guitars so all you hear is the wall of electric guitar distorsion, realy loud drums and if your unlucky, a very mediocre singer that tops evreything off... While the bass is barely audiable unless you realy put your ears into it. But one thing i noticed is that chicks dig bass players haha :)

From what I've seen it's been:
Singer
Guitarist
Drummer
Random guy in the crowd
The creepy guy standing outside
Bassist
I guess it's down to the bassist, but round here bassists are quite the popular bunch...
