I found that playing scales and modes helped me start figuring out heaps of bass lines.
also watching your fingering hand in a mirror helps you keep you head up while playing if you want to sing.

"Only in Dreams" by Weezer is a good song to play along to. It's about eight minutes long and the bass is simple, but there's enough variation to keep things interesting. Once you've aced that, you'll feel good.

Says Kim (in such a cool drawl): "I could tell -- you were shit!"
My all time fave backstage moment.

Learn slap bass. Otherwise, ask the guitarist what he wants you to play. Or even the drummer. No need for bass lessons, if you think you actually need to learn something to play bass, just get instructions of the interweb.
