[th3dudeabides1]

Vic-tor. Been 3 times to him live, what an unalterably amazing xp.

[th3dudeabides1]

Seeing him live is unalterably life changing!

[NorCalCummins]

I wish I was black so I could play bass

[TheNuncFluens]

Excuse my ignorance, but where's the melody he starts playing at 1:15 from, is it his?

[gybalove]

very good crazy with bass good very good . rsrs o baixo pra ele e o mesmo que um brinquedo

[arzgga]

Pure genious :D

[randyreal574]

I'm so glad he does'nt have to back that banjo player anymore!

[star5life]

when i grow up i want to be Victor Wooten

[carlo2913]

greatest bass player in the world



[todds7]

Vic -- my god, bro -- yer a true genius. Jaco, my man, are you seein' this?

Annuit coeptis: [anyoo-it koiptis] "He sees and approves."

I'd love to hear Vic playing some premium Jap basses, like Atelier, Bacchus, or Harry's Engineering! They're SUCH great axes. ... like pre-CBS Fenders

[AballamPrimeTime]

STOP MOVIN' (at the begging)

[drumsbyalex]

at 1:40 audience: WTF can't clap

[truthslap]

daaaamn Wooten, thanks for blowing my mind once again.

[RayfieldAllenJones]

many people capable of doing slap and tapping like he did, same speed as he does, but just some people could feel the music like victor, and share that feeling to all people who listening his music, thats the thing.. (except for that 1 freakin dislike)LOL..

[R2D269ing]

@xXmonkeystompXx i was thinking the exact same thing :p!

[alwaysmusic1]

yea this dude is crazy

[namklak6]

marcus and stanley are great, but Victor's shoes barely get wet when he walks across bodies of water. I sit stage right when I see the Freakshowtones.

[andoidbassking]

I think when people refer to bass players they mean Vic

[offroadplumber]

I've only seen the man play once, but it was first row. he is incredible. got to shake his hand and talk to him for a bit. seems like a nice guy. and also really enjoys playing.

[chkotezcatlipoca]

maestro

[raydamann]

F!@#$%^&*((()_ CK



[MakeTeaNotWar0]

thats one hell of an ugly shirt!

[MrAbeo]

@MakeTeaNotWar0

how can u think about the shirt? when its vic wearing it?



[fakdol]

is Victor wooten an Old 50th century Monk? omg.. hes getting bald. he should cut his hair.. before it gets worst.. the Baldy wooten with Sideburns.

[Frikkn]

@fakdol The power is in the dreadlocks.

[muppet089]

How does he make that noise at 3.08?!?

[mdm12341]

@muppet089 actually not too difficult once you've tried it yourself. He's just pushing the G string over the bottom edge of the fretboard with his thumb. You can bend the string with your left hand a bit too to get a different pitch. Hope you figure it out!

[breadbassed]

@muppet089 i think what he's doing is pushing the string up against the pick up

[MrBassAndWatch]

@muppet089 Basically when u thump the string u carry on pushing down on it (G String) and let it push off the fret board, and with a lil practice u can create that sound =)

[michalpiatek79]

he ain't from this planet, this galaxy, he is beyond everything.

[Majaffa]

Vic is the first person i've seen that can successfully slap for the purpose of peace

[teracite]

haha victor the moster of bass :)

[ElverG123456]

sick  just sick

[paul3point14]

What is the name of the little part he plays at 1:15?

[Waltsidney95]

@paul3point14 pachelbel's canon i think

[sleekbass]

Well...... WWhhewww!!!

[jamietrhcp17]

What the hell is wrong with him? That is my question.

[YertleTheTurtle87]

Victor's performances put a smile on my face. I love the way he plays with his loop pedal from 4:30 onwards :)

[TheNeighboursSon]

@YertleTheTurtle87 he's looping from the very begining actually..

[YertleTheTurtle87]

@TheNeighboursSon yea I know, but I mean I like the part starting from 4:30 ;)

[MrLeedom]

@TheNeighboursSon an old JACO trick...awesome

[xXmonkeystompXx]

I don't see why it says incredible in the title...just say victor wooten, they mean the same thing :)

[hiehoeha]

yeah i've been there. and it was undisribable or something

[Matiyxeli]

franco quintana

[Matiyxeli]

es muy desgraciao este gallo ojala si ves este comentario sepas que fui yo franco quintana de chile

[MrArrpee]

Ronaldhino on the bass :D :D

[kalburo29]

victor is a machine lol

[XxxxSandmaNxxxX]

wow good quality

[ech10]

it starts out as "the vision".

[Romy1093]

I think it's a kind of lullabye, but don't know for sure. I also recognize that melody.

But, he's an amazing bass artist!

[hjamesgarrett]

does anyone know what that tune is that he plays when he slows it down? ex. 1:30 and then again around 1:50? It seems like i recognize that melody but can't place it.

[italian24]

it's called the vision its off his a show of hands album

[1DanielaJ]

Wow this was an amazing performance :)

[gyocc]

it was nice :D

[BrunoSabandar]

Been there! Totally amazing...

[tcdijk]

The part starting at 4:30 was insane :). So incredibly loud...
