[superfayc]

When I hear this kind of Pro bass player, the Pro drummer in my head begins to play along.

[horserider101202]

OMG please give this guy a chance peeps his one of the best ive ever seen.....scatter his videos all across youtube please

[koppel69]

[AAfireworks]

@koppel69 yes its lomanis

[TheWarzaa]

bro you better have given him at least like $100 for filming him. I hope you really did

[BalubianNation]

search 'funky punk bass slap' for some more funky slap bass grooves

[sammicseeyou]

90% of the people in this video are freakishly ignorant

[bigtorquehemi]

Awesome!

[DrummerOfStandAlone]

All these people just walk right past him...I would give him an empty check with my signature on it if I saw him in the street.

[ldrumma2002]

This guy has a voice and soul...He needs to be signed...for real...who could past that up...

[PcmRox182]

This man is what i call REAL MUSICIAN. He travells from town to town and just plays his bass on the street. London,Rome,Athens.. he is simply unbelievable..

All I regret about is that I wasn't on Monastiraki when he played on this video

[wmdbassplayer]

@2xnkote: Are you serious!?! Did you think before making that comment? It's called showing appreciation. It's about acknowledging a fellow human being putting smiles on peoples' faces when there is so much worse a busker could be doing to get money in the name of surviving. You might not want to be a cunt but I'm sorry, you sure sound like an asshole.

[biloudou]

I just saw this guy 2 days ago playing at a friend's party , he was just awesome

[OpakeArawra2]

do people not have the ability to record an entire fucking song by this guy? jesus fuck

[matchoow2004]

i think thats cliff burtons brother...*blinks*

[wmdbassplayer]

This fuckin' guy is killin' it and not a soul dropped anything. That is such a shame! I'm a bass player and I make my living doing this very thing and it sucks here in NYC, but from all I've heard about Europe (though I've never been to Greece) and seen for myself in Munich, this is very disappointing. The upside is that he obviously enjoys what he's doing, regardless. God bless all of us street musicians!

[2xnkote]

@wmdbassplayer why should anyone give money though, no one asks buskers to be there, they do it for themselves. Not trying to be a cunt or anything just saying.

[sedrwzl]

theres videos of this guy in rome and london

i wanna go find this guy

[minusjason]

I saw someone say this on another video, and yeah, this guy really does get around. I've seen videos of him playing all over Europe tonight.

[ESOTERICALADEPT]

Dudes got a groovy soul, YOU GO ROCKIN BASS SHREDDER!!!

[ephramtherabbit]

how does this guy get everywhere???

[matchoow2004]

@ephramtherabbit maybe he has a car?...dumbshit?

[thrashandoverdrive]

@ephramtherabbit This guy gets everywhere with the earblowing power of his awesome basslines.

[maximossk8]

@Carthsting GIVE HIM OVER 9000

[samjetfun]

@Blinx56 People walk past him becouse they will shame when there looking, i know weird people on the planet.

[Edubajista]

[Sprengladung]

genie

[willy1986tralara]

genial!!!! ole el arte gueno y callejero!

[zakkwylde66]

its les claypool!

[MrN1koloza]

Guys i just figured it out this is Lomanis hes the fucking touring around the world cause if you have watched other videos with him he is in other countries and cities and so on

[bojay77]

This guy has already performed in several cities in Europe..I found out several videos on Youtube showing him playing on Italy. Ivory-white bass colour that he uses is easily recognizes..

[NokEtOffer]

Why is this guy all over the world? There's several videos with the same dude playing.

He's amazing, though.

[AmAyznAzn]

this guy is horrible.... seriously

[snufflycaptkill]

Bonkers !

[H8lag]

den ton exo dei pote ton tipa, elpizo na ton petixo kapia mera:)

[hitmonlee1599]

[deliveryboy555]

Thanks for posting the vid and recognising the talent, but this bass guy is awesome hahahah! Much better than the street players in England LOL!

[mastodonoho]

@deliveryboy555 theres actually a video of him playing in london.

[musiluna]

hEY ITS LOMANIS

[boybluesdog]

...gira il mondo suonando il basso ed è evidente, quanto la gente non comprenda il suo talemto...che merda di cultura!!!

[21chaos12]

oh man all this people ignore him and dont see his talent =(

[vicktorium]

i would go all to away to rome to meet this guy

[lorenzopacini]

Credo che questo ragazzo sia un vero musicista, uno con le palle e che si diverta a fare quello che fa.. un vero cantastorie, un giramondo, insomma, beato lui e chi lo può ascoltare dal vivo. GRANDE

[Blinx56]

How can you just walk past him?

[jofly17]

@Blinx56 Great question

[Pashazgv]

@Blinx56 if an unaccomodated person listens to music with such a degree of awsomeness for too long, his ears start melting and his brains start boiling in the skull. hence the short lenght of all such videos on youtube

[SlimFellows44]

@Blinx56 Frank is an amazing musician, I miss him.

[Mabie0108]

@Blinx56 :I would stand there for hours :)

[pandawipes]

@Mabie0108 me too

[jimmya429]

incredible

[GreekMania000]

! before 2 secs i saw him playing at rome

and now he is in greece!?(athens)

Why doesn't he makes a band or do live?

he'll get rich.

[polishpirate123]

cuz thats not what its about

[DarthKazi]

His name is Frank Lomanis and he used to live and teach bass in LA. He hung out with Flea and other people I knew back in the day. He was a teacher of my good friend Justin.

He's quite amazing.

[CommBreakDown]

and now hes a bum? street proformer.

[polishpirate123]

he is all over the world

and what if it matters if a musician is a bum.

when all that matters is that they are happy

[CommBreakDown]

I know what ya mean..but all i mean is... its a talent wasting.. there should be a community for musicians

[polishpirate123]

i bet it was difficult for him to find a group of musicians to travel the world regardless of earning money or any kind of social status, he instead simply took his way to travel the world and play just by himself

[villy8778]

@polishpirate123

What's is name?

[villy8778]

Whats is name?

[GiannisKJ19]

@villy8778 I think this name is lomanis !?!?! I'm not sure...if you search on other videos related you'll find him..

[24HKRO]

@GiannisKJ19 Yes it's Lomanis

[DarthKazi]

These guys can make tons of dough in Europe. A good friend made $200 Euros a day in Spain and Germany.

Even in America, a "Bum" can make $20-30,000/year with NO talent.

[ConfinedAbrasion]

There is nothing wrong with street musicians.

They get to perform every day, where they want, whenever they want, And Whatever they want to play. They do not deal with the shitty music industry and other cocky musicians. And best of all, They are doing what they love. I know what your trying to say, But he doesn't look sad to me.

[cedartree696]

That, and street musicians are viewed with much more respect in many parts of Europe than in the U.S. - as are musicians in general. My cousin moved to Germany - and has lived there for 25 years - so he could make a good living as a classical musician; something nearly impossible here.

[QwertyoPIZ]

Someone donate a few thousand to the man!

[hello2900]

he fekin all over Europe lol

[SimulacronX]

Why do all those street bassists have vanille coloured jazz basses ?!?!?!?

[skinnyjim2]

It's because it's the same guy!

Lomanis

[SimulacronX]

Ahhhh... really ?

Possibly, yes... because I also watched some Englisch guy in London playing also that type of bass.

It's a conspiracy !

;-)

[skinnyjim2]

it's not a conspiracy, it's the same bass player, that's all!

anyway, do you know lot of bassit who ?can play like that (and sing of course..)

[SimulacronX]

Umh, no... Mark King ?

[maymay351]

@SimulacronX Same guy.

[thedeadserv]

prollly cuz it's the same??

[Ekcyboo]

It's the same guy.

[AdamDallas]

They all have little tiny peavey amps as well!

[SimulacronX]

Yeah, it's a damn conspiracy.

No seriously, there's another guy playing a blonde Fender also...

[BigBoiJC]

man...someone light a match for the dude...he's got it smellin' funky all up in here!

[A7XInBloom]

he is one awesome hobo!

[Cloud2424]

Hes Not a Hobo!Hes a Busker - a very good busker

[A7XInBloom]

aww, but i like hobos!

[Crimsonn21]

[ptrLeGrand]

Oh yeah, nice groove!

[kornsouler]

[zarath00stra]

I've seen videos of him on youtube and he's all over europe wtf

[69erthx1138]

He should be playing in front of people who appreciate it.

[FrightendFox]

He'd rather travel throughout europe playing on the streets.

[juliomassibulcao]

@69erthx1138 that's why somebody posted here ;)

[BassMasterXD]

@69erthx1138 He is, we musicians appreciate him

[pwinces0laura]

Wow, real amazing talent at its best!

[strelitziamuzic]

Oui, c'était excellent et Fred et Lo jouent encore mieux aujourd'hui.

[strelitziamuzic]

Lomanis is the best bass player in the world, I know him for past ten years, I saw him playing in his group Ultramove with Fred Morel and Pierre-Jean, making some reprises of Led Zep, Deep Purple ...etc... and composition of Lomanis. Pierre-Jean leave music but Lomanis and Fred are still playing together and they have all to gain to be known. Make discover them to all your friends. They play in their group The Reagans.

[24HKRO]

Puré Ultramove!! de bon souvenir!
