I was just going to say. In a German interview Ocasek added that the only bassist they fleetingly considered was Melissa auf der Maur, who has played with Ocasek on solo tours (singing Drive too) and who Ric knows since he produced some songs of the band of the wife of the late Seattle toe-triggerer.
I understand the commemorative aspect, but playing everything with a click and no variation whatsoever (not that The Cars were The Grateful Dead ever as regards improvisation!) is a huge price to pay. And I don't think that Orr would have minded Fräulein auf der Maur playing his runs, worse things can happen to you after you're dead. If someone is going to step on your grave (s)he should at least wear stilettos. Stylish form of grass ventilation with more acidified soil too, incidentally.
And something tells me that Orr himself would have perhaps preferred to not be replaced by a bass loop?
