Let's get some inspiration!
For me: Mostly Classic Rock and Punk.
Although, when I played in high school in the early/mid 70's there was no 'classic' to it: Zepplin, Bad Company...
In fact, my current finger exercise is bascially the beginning to Over the Hills and Far Away.
I'm a big fan of classic rock as well, but for bass, I've found most songs are pretty uninteresting to play. With a large number of exceptions, of course.
I was planning on working on War Pigs soon because thay bass line is soooooooooooooooo good.
As for finger excersices, these arpeggios are killing me! So boring. I usually put on a movie or documentary when I'm just repeating scales over and over and over and over and over to help mitigate the boredom.

Yeah, was gonna say, you need pretty strng fingers to play bass. I'd be double covering for sure.
